## Abstract The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) recently evaluated the carcinogenicity of three poorly soluble weakly‐toxic substances: carbon black, titanium dioxide and talc. Though there is evidence of carcinogenity in experimental animals for these substances, the evidence in
Although it has been hypothesized that carbon black exposure may carry an excess risk of lung cancer, evidence to date is insufficient to assess the hypothesis properly. The relationship between workplace exposure to carbon black and lung cancer risk was examined in a population-based case-control s
## Abstract ## Background A decline in lung function has been associated with farming, cotton spinning, and work in the animal feed industry. The aim of the study was to reveal if loss of lung function was associated to work at a paper mill. ## Methods Ninety‐seven male paper workers (PW), and 5
A group of 40 individuals were restudied at a median follow-up time of 18 years after chest surgery, chest irradiation, or cyclophosphamide treatment. Their median age at diagnosis was 4.5 years. Nineteen subjects were operated on in the chest area. Radiotherapy of the chest had been used in 21 and
