[Children's health status under ambient air pollution].
The present study was undertaken to comparatively assess the health status of organized preschool children living under varying man-made pollution. Pilot and control districts differing in the level of man-made ambient air pollution were identified. The morbidity and physical development of children in these areas were studied. Fewer healthy children and more ailing children, more children with dysfunctions of organs and systems, and more sick children, as well as more physically retarded children were detected in the higher man-made loaded district of an industrial town.
