Mortality from myocardial infarction in relation to exposure to vibration and dust among a cohort of iron-ore miners in Sweden
Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 11/04/09

Bjor BM et al. – The results for the working–age (<=60 years) group showed significantly increased myocardial infarction mortality for univariate exposure to hand–arm vibration, whole–body vibration, and dust. The authors found an association between increased mortality from myocardial infarction and occupational exposure to whole–body vibration, and the risk remained after adjustment for dust exposure.
