Abstract
In order to find out the effects of vinyl house body, the author compared the physical and laboratory examinations between 96 cases of vinyl house farmers and 96 cases of land farmers who lived in 3 Gun's in Kyoungnam Province from July, 1st through September, 30, 1993. The examination included blood pressure, CBC, urinalysis, and blood chemistry. Systolic blood pressure and alkaline phosphates levels were lower in vinyl house farmers than in land farmers. But white blood cell counts were higher in vinyl house farmers and the other results were not different between two groups. It suggests that the environment of vinyl house - small, poorly ventilating, hot and humid environment - affected human body, then those facts should be considered during construction of vinyl houses.
