Twenty‐Year Longitudinal Cohort Study of Cancer Incidence and Mortality Among Workers in Two Primary Aluminum Prebake Smelters

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Classified as carcinogenic to humans by the International Agency for Research on Cancer, aluminum production has been transitioning towards lower polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon‐emitting prebake smelters. This study explored the risk of cancer and mortality over 20 years follow‐up among a cohort of aluminum prebake smelter workers ...

Severity of effect considerations regarding the use of mutation as a toxicological endpoint for risk assessment: A report from the 8th International Workshop on Genotoxicity Testing (IWGT)

open access: yesEnvironmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure levels without appreciable human health risk may be determined by dividing a point of departure on a dose–response curve (e.g., benchmark dose) by a composite adjustment factor (AF). An “effect severity” AF (ESAF) is employed in some regulatory contexts.

Association of body mass index in early adulthood and middle age with future site-specific cancer mortality: the Harvard Alumni Health Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The association between adiposity in early adulthood and subsequent development of specific malignancies is unclear. Further, the potential for mediation by adiposity in middle age has not been well examined.
