Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Negative environmental conditions of Shymkent increase the risk of lead accumulation in third generation of children, cause the problems with antioxidant protection of respiratory system, significantly reduce barrier-protective properties of cellular systems of tissue immunity, disturb hematopoiesis processes.Statistical data processing enabled us to determine the dependence of lead accretion in soil on the change in functional activity of cheek buccal cells, activity of catalase in expired breath condensate.Both the quantity of reticulocytes and the RPI change correction in accordance with the process of reticulocytes maturation during circulation in peripheral blood as early criterion of toxic anemia refer to haematological symptoms of lead intoxication.
