RESUMEN
This survey was conducted in a local city, Tokushima for its 23 administrative sections, which were classified into rural, non-rural and mixed districts based on the data related to agriculture. Complaints of public nuisances in these districts have been examined and the following findings have been obtained.<BR>1. Complaints about water pollution and offensive odor in the rural district and those about offensive odor and noise in the mixed district have been raised more often, respectively. While, in the non-rural district more complaints about noise have been raised. Thus, it is recognized that possible pollution phenomena vary depending on regional patterns.<BR>2. In time-serial comparison between the first half (1977-1980) and the second half (1981-1984) of survey period, it is found that total complaints of public nuisances have been reduced and the complaints in the rural district have been increased for all the types excepting dust. Therefore, it is suggested that regional environment in suburban farm villages has been deteriorating.
RESUMEN
Relationship between SGOT/SGPT ratio and energy intake were investigated in 1030 subjects (373 males, 657 females). These figures were taken from epidemiological survey of the Tokushima prefecture from 1975 to 1980.<BR>The results of the survey were as follows.<BR>1) Energy intakes in reversal group (SGOT/SGPT <1) was higher than that in nromal group (SGOT/SGPT >1).<BR>2) Body weight in reversal group was higher than that in normal group except young woman (18-39 years).<BR>3) Incidence of reversal of SGOT/SGPT ratio showed increasing values as energy intakes levels increased.<BR>It is possible to conclude from the results that SGOT/SGPT ratio was affected by energy intakes.
