Occupational exposure to wood dusts has been well established as a cause of nasal cancer, dermatitis, and pneumonites from molds growing in wood chips. With the exception of studies on western red cedar asthma, there is a dearth of information on the respiratory toxicity of wood dust exposure. This paper reviews the clinical and epidemiologic literature and identifies the specific woods (with botanical names) and their respiratory disease correlates, including pulmonary function declines, chronic and acute symptoms, and impaired mucociliary transport.
职业接触木屑已被确认为导致鼻癌、皮炎以及因木屑中生长的霉菌引起的肺炎的原因。除了对西部红雪松哮喘的研究外，关于木屑接触的呼吸道毒性的信息匮乏。本文综述了临床和流行病学文献，并确定了特定的木材（列出植物学名）及其与呼吸道疾病的关联，包括肺功能下降、慢性和急性症状以及黏液纤毛运输受损。
