Occupational risk of lung cancer among lifetime non-smoking women in ShangHai, China
Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 08/07/09

Pronk A et al. – Significantly elevated lung cancer risk was associated with employment in some broad occupational categories that also included jobs with potential exposure to suspected carcinogens (B–list).
