Exposure to airborne metal particles
A recent ecological study in Dallas, Texas, found that exposure to what may
be a potential carcinogen--airborne fine particles of metal, particularly
zinc--may contribute to the development of lung cancer.
The study
compared lung cancer rates with industrial release of metals, zinc and chromium.
Researches found that the industrial release of those particles had a positive
association with the disease.
The findings are considered to be a first
step toward determining whether the association does in fact exist between metal
particles and lung cancer.
The study, "AN Ecological Study of the
Association of Metal Air Pollutants with Lung Cancer Incidence in Texas," by
Coyle YM et al, appears in the Journal of Thoracic Oncology, 2006.
