kn-abstract=This study evaluated medical expenses during the last seven months of life in elderly patients aged seventy and over in a rulal town in Okayama prefecture from January 1992 to March 1995, using data from death certificates and medical fee claim records of the elderly. The findings were as follows : 1. The monthly expenses increased toward the last month of life. 2. In the multiple regression model, five independent variables (length of hospital stay, malignant disease, cerebral vascular desease, place of death, services of a visiting nurse) accounted for about 60% of the variance in medical expenses during the last seven-month period. 3. Inflation of medical expenses of the elderly during the premortem period of life was mainly related to long-term hospitalization. 4. In analysing medical expenses, controlling various factors related to long-term hospitalization was found to be important.

kn-abstract=Concept and recent topics on environmental epidemiology have been introduced in the article. First, the authors presented the basic concept on epidemiology. Answers to the question "Is a particular exposure influent to human health?" can be obtained only from studies of human beings, using an epidemiologic approach. Environmental epidemiology is an application of epidemiology to environmental problem. Then, we presented four examples on environmental epidemiologic research. The four recent topics are residential radon exposure and lung cancer, ingested arsenic and cancer, increase incidence of childhood leukaemia around the English neuclear reprocessing facilities, and magnetic field and excess incidence of childhood leukaemia near Swedish high-voltage power lines.
