TL;DR: Vegetarians have a lower risk of dying from ischaemic heart disease than non-vegetarians, and there were no significant differences between vegetarians and non- vegetarians in mortality from the other causes of death examined.

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.

Cancer risk of arc welders exposed to fumes containing chromium and nickel.
TL;DR: A retrospective follow-up study among chromium- and nickel-exposed welders yielded an increased cancer risk in a comparison with an internal reference group of turners, milling cutters, and drillers, as well as with the general population of the Federal Republic of Germany.
