AB  - High levels of exposure to heavy metals and persistent organic pollutants (POPs) 
      by e-waste dismantling workers has attracted increasing attention, but the health 
      conditions of the workers are seldom reported. The liver and kidney functions of 
      the workers were studied by comparing the blood indicators of the worker group 
      with those of the control group. Moreover, factors affecting the liver and kidney 
      functions, such as the sexuality, age, and working time, were identified using 
      correlation analysis. The ratio of aspartate transaminase and alanine 
      aminotransferase (AST/ALT) and the direct bilirubin (DBIL) of the workers were 
      significantly lower than the control group but the abnormal rate of liver and 
      kidney remained the same in both groups. The abnormal rates of liver and kidney 
      were higher in men than in women. ALT, AST/ALT, and urea nitrogen (BUN) increased 
      with age while creatinine (CREA) increased with working time. The factors of 
      liver and kidney damage caused by POPs and DBIL can be used as the indicators of 
      the damage caused by multi-factors.
