Real-time fine aerosol exposures in taconite mining operations

2018-02-13

Abstract excerpt

Respiratory health effects such as mesothelioma, silicosis, and lung cancer have been shown to be associated with working in the taconite mining industry. Taconite workers may also have elevated risks from cardiovascular disease (CVD), although the relationship of CVD to dust exposures at these mines has not been well-studied. Motivated by evidence from environmental epidemiological studies and occupational cohort...
