To assess prenatal air toxics exposure and risk for childhood germ cell tumors (GCTs) by histological subtype (yolk sac tumor and teratoma).
In this case-control study, GCT cases less than 6 years (n = 243) identified from California Cancer Registry records were matched by birth year to cancer-free population controls (n = 147,100), 1984 to 2013. Routinely monitored air toxic exposures were linked to subjects' birth address. Logistic regression estimated GCT risks per interquartile range increase in exposure.
Prenatal exposure to various highly-correlated, traffic-related air toxics during the second trimester increased GCT risk, particularly 1,3-butadiene (odds ratio [OR] = 1.51; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.01, 2.26) and meta/para-xylene (OR = 1.56; 95% CI = 1.10, 2.21). Analyses by subtype indicated elevated ORs for yolk sac tumors but not teratomas.
Our estimated ORs are consistent with positive associations between some prenatal traffic-related air toxics and GCT risk, notably yolk sac tumors.
通过组织学亚型(卵黄囊瘤和畸胎瘤)评估产前空气毒物暴露与儿童生殖细胞肿瘤(GCT)的风险。
在这项病例对照研究中,从加利福尼亚癌症登记处记录中确定的小于 6 岁的 GCT 病例(n=243),按照出生年份与无癌症人群对照(n=147100)进行匹配,时间范围为 1984 年至 2013 年。对常规监测的空气毒物暴露与受试者的出生地址进行关联。使用逻辑回归估计每增加一个四分位间距的暴露水平与 GCT 风险之间的关系。
在妊娠中期,接触到各种高度相关的交通相关空气毒物会增加 GCT 的风险,特别是 1,3-丁二烯(OR=1.51;95%置信区间 [CI] = 1.01, 2.26)和间/对二甲苯(OR=1.56;95%CI=1.10, 2.21)。按亚型进行分析表明,卵黄囊瘤的比值比(OR)升高,但畸胎瘤则不然。
我们的估计比值比与一些产前交通相关空气毒物与 GCT 风险之间的正相关关系一致,特别是卵黄囊瘤。
