Standardized lung cancer mortality ratios, 1969-1978, for basic administrative units of Japan were related to various environmental characteristics by multiple regression analysis. Elevated lung cancer mortality was demonstrated in the areas along the sea coast, particularly those with fishing ports, low socioeconomic status, and high level of air pollution. High mortality was also observed in coal mining areas and areas with shipyards. Data on tobacco expenditures provided partial adjustment for the effects of cigarette smoking on these correlations.
通过多元回归分析，将1969年至1978年日本基本行政单位的标准化肺癌死亡率与各种环境特征相关联。在沿海地区，特别是那些有渔港、社会经济地位低和空气污染水平高的地区，肺癌死亡率升高。在煤矿区和有造船厂的地区也观察到高死亡率。烟草支出数据对吸烟对这些相关性的影响提供了部分调整。
