A relatively high incidence of cancer of the skin, especially of the scrotum, due to occupational contact with mineral oil has been observed among shale oil workers and cotton mule spinners and, since the Second World War, among machine operators in the Birmingham region. A study has been made of the factors causing this high incidence and evidence is given that the respiratory and digestive tracts as well as the skin may be affected. The preventive measures are described and the suggestion made that they appear at the present time to be effective.
在页岩油工人、棉纺机纺纱工中，以及自第二次世界大战以来在伯明翰地区的机器操作工中，已观察到因职业接触矿物油而导致皮肤癌，尤其是阴囊癌的发病率相对较高。已对导致这种高发病率的因素进行了研究，并给出证据表明呼吸道、消化道以及皮肤都可能受到影响。文中描述了预防措施，并提出这些措施目前看来是有效的。
