Although nearly two-thirds of U.S. firefighters serve as volunteers, they are rarely included in studies of firefighters' health. The Firefighter Cancer Assessment and Prevention Study (CAPS), a research component of the Fire Fighter Cancer Cohort Study (FFCCS), has enrolled over 600 U.S. volunteer firefighters to help address this gap. This study found a greater prevalence of cancer-related health behaviors among volunteers compared to career firefighters. These behaviors included cigarette smoking, heavy alcohol use, and obesity. While the differences in behaviors varied between U.S. states, all state-level prevalences were higher among volunteer firefighters than career firefighters. The findings of this study support the need to provide volunteer firefighters with overall and targeted health promotion and cancer prevention programs.
尽管美国近三分之二的消防员是志愿者，但他们很少被纳入消防员健康研究。消防员癌症评估与预防研究（CAPS）是消防员癌症队列研究（FFCCS）的一个研究组成部分，已招募了600多名美国志愿消防员，以填补这一空白。该研究发现，与职业消防员相比，志愿者中与癌症相关的健康行为更为普遍。这些行为包括吸烟、大量饮酒和肥胖。虽然不同州之间行为差异有所不同，但所有州一级志愿消防员的患病率均高于职业消防员。这项研究的结果支持了为志愿消防员提供全面和有针对性的健康促进及癌症预防项目的必要性。
