摘要

In October 2006, Member of Congress Maurice Hinchey requested that ATSDR conduct a health consultation to assess cardiovascular disease among people residing near the Hudson River. A 200-mile segment of the Hudson River from Hudson Falls south to New York City is a National Priorities List (NPL) (Superfund) site due to contamination of the river with polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) from GE sites in Hudson Falls and Ft. Edward. In support of his request, Member of Congress Hinchey cited three studies of cardiovascular hospitalizations conducted with similar data and methods. These 2004-2005 statewide studies suggest residents of ZIP codes containing hazardous waste sites with persistent organic pollutants (POPs) such as PCBs have elevated risk for hospitalizations for cardiovascular disease, including ischemic heart disease, stroke and hypertension. Analyses conducted separately for ZIP codes next to the Hudson River suggest residents of these specific ZIP codes also have increased rates of hospitalization for cardiovascular disease.
