Occupational airborne exposures and asthma mortality – examining asthma as the underlying and contributing cause of death

Occupational airborne exposures increased the asthma mortality, underscoring the need for further reduction of the airborne occupational exposures. Workers with asthma should be given information about the effects of exposure and support to decrease exposure. The study shows the importance of using both contributing and underlying cause of death in studies assessing asthma mortality risk in relation to air pollutants.

Abstract

Occupational airborne exposures increased the asthma mortality, underscoring the need for further reduction of the airborne occupational exposures. Workers with asthma should be given information about the effects of exposure and support to decrease exposure. The study shows the importance of using both contributing and underlying cause of death in studies assessing asthma mortality risk in relation to air pollutants.
