TL;DR: It is recognised that for further domains of non-day shifts and shift schedules to be identified, more research needs to be conducted on the impact of various shift schedules and routines on physiological and circadian rhythms of workers in real-world environments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Occupational exposure to carcinogens in the European Union.
Timo Kauppinen,J. Toikkanen,D. Pedersen,R. Young,Wolfgang Ahrens,Paolo Boffetta,Johnni Hansen,Hans Kromhout,Maqueda Blasco J,Dario Mirabelli,de la Orden-Rivera,Brian Pannett,Nils Plato,Savela A,Raymond Vincent,Manolis Kogevinas +15 more
TL;DR: CAREX (carcinogen exposure) database as discussed by the authors was designed to provide selected exposure data and documented estimates of the number of workers exposed to carcinogens by country, carcinogen, and industry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cancer Mortality in Workers Exposed to Phenoxy Herbicides, Chlorophenols, and Dioxins An Expanded and Updated International Cohort Study
Manolis Kogevinas,Heiko Becher,Trevor Benn,Pier Alberto Bertazzi,Paolo Boffetta,H. Bas Bueno-de-Mesqurta,David Coggon,Didier Colin,Dieter Flesch-Janys,Marilyn A. Fingerhut,Lois M. Green,Timo Kauppinen,Margareta Littorin,Elsebeth Lynge,John D. Mathews,Manfred Neuberger,Neil Pearce,Rodolfo Saracci +17 more
TL;DR: Exposure to herbicides contaminated with TCDD and higher chlorinated dioxins may be associated with a small increase in overall cancer risk and in risk for specific cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI
From cross-tabulations to multipurpose exposure information systems: a new job-exposure matrix.
TL;DR: A new Finnish job-exposure matrix (FINJEM) was constructed for exposure assessment in large register-based studies, designed to contain definitions, inferences, exposure data, and references, and it provides information on the numbers of exposed workers in Finland by agent, occupation, and level of exposure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cancer mortality in workers exposed to chlorophenoxy herbicides and chlorophenols.
R. Saracci,Manolis Kogevinas,Regina Winkelmann,Pier Alberto Bertazzi,B.H. Bueno de Mesquita,David Coggon,Lois M. Green,Timo Kauppinen,K.A. L'Abbé,Margareta Littorin,Elsebeth Lynge,John D. Mathews,Manfred Neuberger,John Osman,Neil Pearce +14 more
TL;DR: Risks appeared to be increased for cancers of the testicle, thyroid, other endocrine glands, and nose and nasal cavity, based on small numbers of deaths, and the excess of soft-tissue sarcomas among sprayers does not seem to be specifically associated with those herbicides probably contaminated by TCDD.
