The overall mortality and the incidence of cancer have been studied among male employees at a plant producing calcium carbide. The cohort was defined as all men employed at the plant for at least 18 months in the period 1953 to 1970 and was classified according to 10 occupational categories. The 790 men have been observed from 1953 to 1983 and the incidence of cancer in the cohort has been compared with national incidence rates. A significant excess of colonic cancer (standardised incidence ratio, SIR = 2.09) and of prostatic cancer (SIR = 1.78) was found, and also a slight excess of lung cancer among furnace and maintenance workers (SIR = 1.56). The possible exposure of the workers to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, asbestos, and cadmium is discussed.
对一家电石生产厂的男性员工的总体死亡率和癌症发病率进行了研究。该队列定义为1953年至1970年期间在该厂工作至少18个月的所有男性,并根据10种职业类别进行分类。对这790名男性从1953年至1983年进行了观察,并将该队列中的癌症发病率与全国发病率进行了比较。发现结肠癌(标准化发病率比,SIR = 2.09)和前列腺癌(SIR = 1.78)有显著超额,并且在炉前工和维修工人中肺癌也有轻微超额(SIR = 1.56)。讨论了工人可能接触多环芳烃、石棉和镉的情况。
