This study investigates the association between pleural neoplasm mortality, a possible proxy for asbestos exposure, and lung cancer mortality among males resident in Piedmont (northwestern Italy). Pleural neoplasm mortality was estimated in the 1,209 municipalities of the region for the period 1980-
In an attempt to define the type and temporal sequences of somatic genetic changes that precede the onset of invasive lung cancer, and to search for biological markers useful in screening multiple primary tumors of the upper aerodigestive tract, we have performed a cytogenetic and genetic study usin
