Association between pesticide exposure and colorectal cancer risk and incidence: A systematic review
2021, Ecotoxicology and Environmental SafetyCitation Excerpt :In addition to farmers, pesticide applicators are also perceived as being at increased risk of pesticide exposure, but from the studies reviewed, only one study reported a significant positive association with rectal cancer risk among Icelandic pesticide applicators (Zhong and Rafnsson, 1996). However, significant inverse associations were found between pesticide applicators in Italy (Torchio et al., 1994), Florida (Fleming et al., 1999b), and other US populations (Alavanja et al., 2005; Cantor and Silberman, 1999) and colon and rectal cancer risk. Other occupational risk factors include chemicals used at the job and chemical weapons used during wars.
