Abstract

Abstract Accurate, timely, and complete disease reporting is essential to understanding the extent and long-term consequences of diseases related to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 (9/11). Although there are no public health disease reporting requirements that specifically mention 9/11, other mechanisms exist to track 9/11-related illnesses. These include the availability of 9/11-exposed cohorts, some open to new member recruitment and others closed. Record linkages of 9/11 cohorts to various data registries (eg statewide cancer registries and the National Death Index) are periodically performed. This paper describes these 9/11 cohorts and the efforts to track their health experience.

追踪与2001年9月11日恐怖袭击有关的疾病。

准确、及时和完整的疾病报告对于了解与2001年9月11日(9/11)恐怖袭击有关的疾病的程度和长期后果至关重要。虽然没有特别提到9/11的公共卫生疾病报告要求，但存在其他机制来跟踪9/11相关疾病。其中包括9/11事件相关群组的可用性，其中一些对新成员招募开放，另一些则关闭。定期将9/11队列与各种数据登记处(例如全州癌症登记处和国家死亡指数)进行记录联系。本文描述了这些9/11人群以及追踪他们健康经历的努力。

期刊介绍： Archives of Environmental & Occupational Health , originally founded in 1919 as the Journal of Industrial Hygiene, and perhaps most well-known as the Archives of Environmental Health, reports, integrates, and consolidates the latest research, both nationally and internationally, from fields germane to environmental health, including epidemiology, toxicology, exposure assessment, modeling and biostatistics, risk science and biochemistry. Publishing new research based on the most rigorous methods and discussion to put this work in perspective for public health, public policy, and sustainability, the Archives addresses such topics of current concern as health significance of chemical exposure, toxic waste, new and old energy technologies, industrial processes, and the environmental causation of disease such as neurotoxicity, birth defects, cancer, and chronic degenerative diseases. For more than 90 years, this noted journal has provided objective documentation of the effects of environmental agents on human and, in some cases, animal populations and information of practical importance on which decisions are based.
