[Evaluation of health risks of residents of Novokuibyshevsk].
The globally accepted procedure for assessing the human health and the special software "MedEcoRISK" programme (Saint Petersburg) were used in Novokuibyshevsk (Samara Region), the center of petroleum-refining and petrochemical industry. The surveys did not yield contradictory results and they were complementary in providing evidence for that the population's health status has become much worse due to high ambient air pollution. The findings were used for basic information in the system of measures to reduce health risks.
