Health effects associated with the disposal of solid waste in landfills and incinerators in populations living in surrounding areas: a systematic review
Abstract
Objectives Potential health hazards for the environment and people living nearby landfills and incinerators are claimed to be related to several methods of waste management. Independent systematic review of the scientific literature is a key procedure to support the lay public and policy makers to achieve informed decisions. Methods The study design and potential biases of papers retrieved in this comprehensive literature search were analyzed. Results The most consistent result is that the risks of congenital anomalies and hospitalization due to respiratory disease are likely to be real nearby special waste landfills. From the very little information on exclusively urban waste depots it is reasonable to say that correct management of landfill does not increase the risk of these health effects. It is confirmed that historically incinerators are an important source of pollution and harm for the health of populations living nearby; however, changes in technology are producing more reassuring results. Conclusions A moderate level of confidence is possible in limited areas of knowledge, implying the need to overcome the limitations of current studies about exposure assessment and to control confounders at the individual level.

“Several authors have studied landfills and have concluded that these landfills have negative impact on human health, such as inhalation chemical poisoning, low birth weight, birth defects, neurological diseases, nausea and vomiting, mercury toxicity from consumption of high levels of mercury in fish [115], the increase of cancer cases [116,117] and the respiratory diseases [118,119].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
