[ Delayed effect of prenatal irradiation on the critical organs functional state in children after Chernobyl accident].

Some indexes of a metabolism in 186 children exposed in utero through the Chernobyl accident were investigated ten years after the irradiation. All the children (basic and control groups) live in the territory with contamination less than 15 Ci/km2. It was shown, that the activity of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase and the level of bilirubin (conjugated and unconjugated) differed from the corresponding indexes in the control group (p < 0.05). These change depended on sex. The correlation between the levels of the total bilirubin, activity of the ACT, ALT in serum and absorbed doze to the thyroid of fetus was found (correlation coefficient > -0.8, p < 0.05). The linear regression equations for these three indexes are straight line: the total bilirubin, ACT and ALT decreased with the increase of the absorbed dose to the thyroid of fetus (p < 0.05). The relationship between the all indexes in serum and effective doze and levels of cesium accumulation was not detected.
