title: [Environmental factors as risk factors for the health of the population: the results of epidemiological research and the means for its extension and deepening].
abstract: On the basis of the assessment of noncancer risk, main approaches were developed and approved to identifying the effects of the environmental factors on the health of the population, with special reference to nonspecificity of the action of the factors in question, polymorphism of the organism's responses, estimation of the threshold of the pollutants actions, specificities of the combined effects of environmental factors. The data obtained serve as a basis for identifying the extent of risk for exposure of the population to different factors, and it is on this foundation that priorities are to be established in designing health promotion measures, and the risk is to be correlated with the amounts of the necessary measures designed to provide an adequate social protection of the population.
