Exposure to respirable crystalline silica is suggested increase the risk of autoimmune rheumatic diseases. We examined association between exposure and systemic sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus erythematosus small vessel vasculitis.In a cohort study total Danish working population, we included 1 541 505 male 470 769 female workers followed since entering labour market 1979-2015. Each worker was annually assigned level estimated with quantitative job matrix. identified cases diseases in...
Objectives Increased risk has been suggested for autoimmune rheumatic diseases following solvent exposure. The evidence specific solvents is limited, and little known about exposure–response relations. Styrene an aromatic, organic the objective of this study was to analyse association between occupational styrene exposure in men women. Methods We followed 72 212 styrene-exposed workers Danish reinforced plastics industry from 1979 2012. modelled full work history employment history, survey...
Abstract Background High concentrations of respirable quartz have been reported from workers in construction, foundries, and quarries. Current exposure prevalent but presumably lower exposed occupations less examined. We aimed to quantify current dust across identify determinants these occupations. Methods One hundred eighty-nine full-shift personal samples within 11 Denmark were sampled during 2018. Respirable was determined gravimetrically analysed for content with infrared spectrometry....
Background Increased risk of systemic sclerosis, lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, primary vasculitis, and Sjogren’s syndrome has been suggested following occupational solvent exposure. The evidence for specific solvents is, however, limited little is known about exposure patterns. Aim Our aim to examine the response relation styrene Methods We followed 72 467 exposed workers Danish reinforced plastics industry from 1977–2012. modelled employment history, survey data historical...
<h3>Introduction</h3> High airborne concentrations of respirable quartz have been reported from workers in construction, foundries, and quarries. Current exposure levels prevalent but presumably lower exposed jobs less examined. <h3>Objectives</h3> To quantify the current dust across occupations with expected moderate to high Denmark. A second aim was identify determinants occupations. <h3>Methods</h3> 189 full-shift personal samples within 11 were sampled analysed for content infrared...
<h3>Introduction</h3> Occupational exposure to wood dust is associated with increased risk of adenocarcinoma and probably also squamous cell sinonasal cancer. There is, however, still limited knowledge about the exposure-response relation possible threshold levels. <h3>Objectives</h3> To analyze between quantitative measures <h3>Methods</h3> A cohort study was conducted entire Danish working population 1979–2015 (n=5,421,248) annual information on occupation since 1977. An inception workers...
