Risk assessment of mortality from silicosis and lung cancer Workers in machine factories and traditional brick production workshops with crystalline silica
Introduction: Exposure to dust is an essential factor in the brick production industry. Determining the mortality rate from silicosis and lung cancer is very important in exposure to crystalline silica dust. Therefore, this study was conducted to risk assessment of workers in machine factories and traditional brick production workshops. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was con...
متن کاملCrystalline silica exposure and lung cancer mortality in diatomaceous earth industry workers: a quantitative risk assessment.
OBJECTIVE To use various exposure-response models to estimate the risk of mortality from lung cancer due to occupational exposure to respirable crystalline silica dust. METHODS Data from a cohort mortality study of 2342 white male California diatomaceous earth mining and processing workers exposed to crystalline silica dust (mainly cristobalite) were reanalyzed with Poisson regression and Cox...
متن کاملCrystalline silica exposure, radiological silicosis, and lung cancer mortality in diatomaceous earth industry workers.
BACKGROUND The role of silicosis as either a necessary or incidental condition in silica associated lung cancer remains unresolved. To address this issue a cohort analysis of dose-response relations for crystalline silica and lung cancer mortality was conducted among diatomaceous earth workers classified according to the presence or absence of radiological silicosis. METHODS Radiological sili...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate crystalline silica as a human carcinogen. METHODS A cohort of 5115 men, born 1916-45 and employed in the pottery, refractory, and sandstone industries of Stoke-on-Trent was identified from occupations subject to health surveillance by the local Silicosis Medical Board (now the Department of Social Security). Detailed occupational and smoking histories, and records of sma...
