Occupational exposure and new-onset asthma in the population-based Telemark study: a 5-year follow-up
Participants had elevated ORs for asthma associated with self-reported and N-JEM-assigned exposures. A PAF of 17% indicates that work-related asthma is still common. The possible exposure-response relationship suggests that reducing occupational VGDF exposure frequency could prevent the onset of asthma.
