Between The Workplace With Lung Cancer

Certain jobs can increase the risk of lung cancer for men. Some Italian researchers suggested this after finding five percent of lung cancer in men associated with the work, although smoking is still the cause of lung cancer is much greater than any factor.
Dario Consonni of Foundation IRCCS Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico in Milan and his colleagues discovered that as many as five percent of lung cancer in men, and work-related chemicals where danger in the workplace played a huge role "risk of lung cancer.
Their study, which was broadcast American Jounal of Epidemiology, examined the relationship between lung cancer and a good job of known or suspected to increase the risk of the disease in 2100 affected people diagnosed with lung cancer and 2120 healthy people matched, based, gender and lodging.
As many as 12 percent of men who worked at a place known to keep his official job risk of lung cancer. The workplace is like mine, where the metal processing, and certain types of construction work.
Male workers who work 74 percent penstimulasi risk of cancer, diagnosed more susceptible to lung cancer.
The strongest connection seen in the work of ceramic and pottery and brick making, and work in the manufacture of metal nonbesi.
The same percentage of cancer patients and healthy people - as many as one in five people - doing work that allegedly associated with lung cancer, but did not show increased risk at all.
But researchers did find "a very significant risk" to the workers at the fueling station, and for people working in the leather processing, glass worker, and welder.
In addition to the group of men, there are 385 women who entered into the study, which is known only three of all cancer patients and two healthy people to work in a place known penstimulasi associated with lung cancer.
That translates into four-fold increased risk of cancer, but because very few women were exposed, the number is "not right", said the researchers reported Reuters Health.
They did find "alleged" increased risk of cancer in which the perempuran officer laundri and cleaners.
"The findings in this study confirm the need for continuous monitoring and monitoring of exposure peningkatakan associated with good jobs for the purpose of prevention or compensation to the workers," concluded the researchers. (AntaraNews)
