title: [Influence of soil lead upon children blood lead in Shenyang City].
abstract: The dynamic correlation coefficients between soil lead and blood lead, the children blood lead arose from soil lead and the length of time over which the blood lead concentration can fall to be at or below the threshold value (10 microg x dL(-1)) are analyzed. If the aggregated soil lead and blood lead are stratified by the seven geographic regions studied, an elevated R of 0.9200 could be calculated, and the lead exposure assessment may require knowledge of geographic dimension of the exposure topology components. The children blood lead levels calculated based on the soil lead in the unit of geographic region show that the blood lead levels of about 90% of children exceed the threshold value in the west industrial area, while they are all below the threshold value in the east area. The children, whose blood lead level exceed the threshold value, are in the range of 3.48% - 31.81% in the other areas. The length of time over which the blood lead concentration can fall to be at or below the threshold value is highest, and average 26.68months, in the west area, and the order is the west > the north > the northeast > the southwest > the northwest > central area > the east, it is zero in the east area, and the maximum recovery time follow the same order. The blood lead levels and the recovery time are controlled by the environmental lead contamination, and the lead hazard intervention would contribute to the fall of blood lead levels.
