Аннотация: Aim. To assess the risk of developing non-carcinogenic health disorders in adolescents depending on environmental factors and lifestyle.Methods. Calculation of daily doses in inhalation exposure of substances was performed according to the monitoring data of The Federal Service for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring of Russia (ambient air of Angarsk) in 2003-2014 and the results of the control of impurity levels (formaldehyde, carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, suspended solids) in ambient air, as well as in the air of study rooms and living accommodations, conducted in the laboratory of physical and chemical methods of investigation. The study of the impact of lifestyle factors was performed according to the results social hygienic survey of adolescents. Health problems in adolescents were identified as a result of the medical examination conducted with the participation of the pediatrician, ophthalmologist, otolaryngologist, neurologist, orthopedist, endocrinologist.Results. It has been established that the risk of non-carcinogenic effects for adolescents of industrial city and suburban villages was caused by the presence of formaldehyde and suspended solids, mainly in indoor air. For adolescents living in areas with low exposure, the health risks were associated with the concentration of suspended solids in ambient air and indoor air. The adverse impact of lifestyle factors was observed only in urban adolescents. High relative risk of scoliosis, valgus feet, and flat feet was found for adolescents with insufficient physical activity, myopia - for those with long-term working at a computer.Conclusion. The results are indicative of the specificity of the effects of combined factors (ambient air pollution and lifestyle) on the developing body; adolescents living in the city have higher relative risk of diseases of the upper respiratory tract, musculoskeletal system, visual organs, and autonomic dysfunction syndrome.
