A Review of Pesticide Exposure and Cancer Incidence in the Agricultural Health Study Cohort
We reviewed epidemiologic evidence related to occupational pesticide exposures and cancer incidence in the Agricultural Health Study (AHS) cohort. Studies were identified from the AHS publication list available on a Medline/PubMed database search in March 2009. Findings related to lifetime-days and/or intensity-weighted lifetime-days of pesticide use are the primary focus of this review, becaus...
متن کاملCancer incidence among male pesticide applicators in the Agricultural Health Study cohort exposed to diazinon.
Little is known about the potential carcinogenicity associated with routine application of diazinon, a common organophosphate insecticide. The authors explored a possible association of diazinon exposure with cancer risk in the Agricultural Health Study, a prospective cohort of licensed pesticide applicators in Iowa and North Carolina enrolled in 1993-1997. A total of 23,106 male applicators pr...
متن کاملGlyphosate Use and Cancer Incidence in the Agricultural Health Study.
Background Glyphosate is the most commonly used herbicide worldwide, with both residential and agricultural uses. In 2015, the International Agency for Research on Cancer classified glyphosate as "probably carcinogenic to humans," noting strong mechanistic evidence and positive associations for non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in some epidemiologic studies. A previous evaluation in the Agricultural H...
متن کاملUse of agricultural pesticides and prostate cancer risk in the Agricultural Health Study cohort.
The authors examined the relation between 45 common agricultural pesticides and prostate cancer incidence in a prospective cohort study of 55,332 male pesticide applicators from Iowa and North Carolina with no prior history of prostate cancer. Data were collected by means of self-administered questionnaires completed at enrollment (1993-1997). Cancer incidence was determined through population-...
متن کاملPesticide use and myocardial infarction incidence among farm women in the agricultural health study.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the relationship between pesticide use and myocardial infarction (MI) among farm women. BACKGROUND Little is known about the potential association between pesticide use and cardiovascular outcomes. METHODS We used logistic regression to evaluate pesticide use and self-reported incident nonfatal MI among women in the Agricultural Health Study. RESULTS Of those MI-free...
