2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) role in hematopoiesis and in hematologic diseases: A critical review
2016, ToxicologyCitation Excerpt :TCDD has never been produced commercially. However, it derives as a synthesis byproduct from chlorophenols or chlorophenoxy herbicides manufacturing (Saracci et al., 1991). It may also be formed, along with other polychlorinated dibenzodioxins and dibenzofurans, in burning processes, especially if there are certain metal catalysts, like copper.
A critical review of the epidemiology of Agent Orange or 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin and lymphoid malignancies
2015, Annals of EpidemiologyCitation Excerpt :A review of the cancer results from these studies is complicated by the partial overlap of the study subjects included in various reports. IARC [162] coordinated a pooled analysis of several studies (most of which had been reported separately) from Europe and Oceania. The National Institute for Occupational Health and Safety (NIOSH) [163] combined several U.S.-based studies (also reported separately) in a pooled analysis The results of the two pooled analyses were then reported in a combined publication, which included four additional German cohorts that also had been reported separately [164].
2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibezo-p-dioxin exposure and prostate cancer: A meta-analysis of cohort studies
2014, Public HealthCitation Excerpt :A study33 that included 13,144 men with or without exposure to Agent Orange was excluded because what the authors needed was the number of prostate cancer patients rather than the number of people who were likely to develop prostate cancer. The studies by Kogevina34 and Saracci35 were also excluded because most of the cohorts in their studies were updated and already included in this analysis. Table 1 summarizes the main characteristics of the selected studies.
