摘要: A proportional mortality and case-referent analysis of 238 deaths among hourly employees in an automobile hardware manufacturing plant was conducted. The major operations the were zinc die casting electroplating. Chemical exposure included die-casting emissions mists from chrome nickel plating. chief finding a significant excess lung cancer both white men women. indicated possible association between work certain departments. findings support hypothesis work-related carcinogenic risk. Follow-up recommendations have been made.
