Occupational exposure to dust has been linked with excess mortality from stomach cancer. To examine this hypothesis in respect of cement workers the mortality of a group of men, identified as cement workers in 1939, was followed up from 1948 to 1981. An excess of mortality from stomach cancer was found which is not thought to be explained by the social class distribution of the study population. Mortality from respiratory disease was not increased.
职业接触粉尘与胃癌的超额死亡率有关。为了就水泥工人验证这一假设,对一组在1939年被认定为水泥工人的男性从1948年至1981年进行了随访。发现胃癌死亡率过高,且认为这不能用研究人群的社会阶层分布来解释。呼吸系统疾病的死亡率没有增加。
