Studies link occupational exposure to vapors, gases, dusts, and fumes with 3 measures: respiratory disease-related mortality, alzheimer's or vascular dementia-related mortality and cardiovascular-related mortality.

Respiratory disease-related mortality

1 study

  1. Occupational exposure to vapors, gases, dusts, and fumes are associated with respiratory disease-related mortality in humans (Compared with no occupational exposure) (sHR 1.7 (95% CI 1.2–2.4)).

    “sHR 1.7(1.2-2.4) for all respiratory disease-related mortality.”
