TL;DR: The analysis based on the semi-quantitative, matrix-based exposures in the whole cohort did not suggest an increased lung cancer risk following exposure to bitumen fume, but in an analysis restricted to road pavers, a dose-response was suggested for average level of exposure, applying a 15-year lag.

TL;DR: European workers employed in road paving, asphalt mixing and other jobs entailing exposure to bitumen fume might have experienced a small increase in lung cancer mortality risk, compared to workers in ground and building construction.

Gender-specific reproductive outcome and exposure to high-frequency electromagnetic radiation among physiotherapists.
TL;DR: High-frequency electromagnetic radiation was furthermore associated with low birthweight, but only for male newborns, and the other outcomes were not statistically significantly associated with exposure to high- Frequency electromagnetic radiation.

TL;DR: A data-driven EM for known and suspected carcinogens was required for a multicenter international cohort study of cancer risk and bitumen among asphalt workers and was produced using methodology that can be adapted for other multicenter studies.

TL;DR: The results suggest that a case-referent study of lung cancer, nested in an international cohort of asphalt workers, represents the design of choice, conditionally on the possibility of assessing relevant individual life-time exposures.
