A population-based case-control study on brain cancer was carried out in some areas in the United States with petroleum refining and chemical manufacturing industries (i.e., activities suspected of being associated with brain cancer) and is described in detail in the monograph on dichloromethane (see this volume). Probability, intensity, duration and calendar time of life-long individual exposures to each of six chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons, including 1,1,1-trichloroethane, were assessed through an ad-hoc job-exposure matrix. Whereas risk excesses of some consistency were associated with exposure to other chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons, exposure to 1,1,1-trichloroethane showed little indication of an association with brain cancer (Heineman et al., 1994). [Pg.883]

Use of Exposure Data Matrices to Reconstruct Exposures. Exposure data or job exposure matrices have been used since the 1940s, and continue to be a valuable method for exposure reconstruction (Coughlin and Chiazze 1990). A job exposure matrix (JEM) aims to incorporate aU somces of available data in order to link information about job categories and likely exposures (Coughlin and Chiazze 1990). The types of information used in a JEM, if available, include exposure data, current data combined wilh otho- information extrapolated to previous job tasks or working conditions, exposure time durations, job titles, work locations or... [Pg.745]

Table 17.1 depicts nine reports on findings of increased lung cancer incidences and mortdities in both battery and smelter workers with elevated Pb exposures and one report derived from Pb exposure monitoring analysis. These cohorts and other subjects were from Britain, Finland, Italy, Sweden, and the United States. Pb exposures were indexed by actual environmental measurements in air or measurements of Pb in blood and urine. A job-exposure matrix approach was employed in part of one study using a nested case—control approach. [Pg.638]

Four Pb worker cohorts studied for incidence and mortality linked to stomach cancer yielded evidence of increased mortality from stomach cancer, and this is summarized in Table 17.2. The studies consisted of two battery factory (Fanning, 1988 Wong and Harris, 2000) and two Pb smelter (Steenland et al., 1992 Wong and Harris, 2000) cohorts. The proportional mortality odds ratio (PMOR) for the 2,073 male British battery workers studied by Fanning (1988) was 1.34 (based on 31 stomach cancer deaths). Pb exposure was assessed using a job-exposure matrix, with frequency matching by 10-year worker age bands, 1926—1985. U.S. battery workers (male A = 4,518) in the Wong and Harris report presented with an SMR of 152.8 based on 45 stomach cancer deaths. [Pg.642]

The difficulties and uncertainties associated with the assessment of occupational or environmental dust exposures from occupational histories, job exposure matrixes or calculations from specific exposure databases have led clinicians, pathologists and epidemiologists to investigate the capacities associated with the mineralogical analysis of lung samples. [Pg.115]
