| Resumen |
A study of the cause of death of 60 subjects in occupations involving exposure to chlorinated hydrocarbon pesticides and 120 controls indicated that there was no association between fatal aplastic anaemia and pesticide exposure. The estimated relative risk for pesticide-exposed workers, based on data for a 10 year period, was 0.67. No correlation was found between chlorinated hydrocarbon pesticide use and aplastic anaemia mortality in the United States from 1950 to 1975. Accumulated epidemiologic data did not support a dose-dependent causal relationship between pesticides and aplastic anaemia. |
