研究了昆士兰州热带城市地区(汤斯维尔)和昆士兰州主要热带甘蔗种植区白血病和淋巴瘤的死亡率。结果发现,与昆士兰州的一般人口相比,这两个地区的妇女死于淋巴组织肿瘤的人数较少;汤斯维尔的男子死于淋巴组织肿瘤的人数较少,但在甘蔗种植区则不然;在1968-1981年期间,(13例死亡; SMR,49; P <0.01),与白血病死亡人数显著增加形成对比。(61例死亡; SMR,154; P小于0.01)在男性60岁以上的甘蔗种植区。
The mortality from leukaemias and lymphomas in a tropical urban region of Queensland (Townsville) and in the mainly tropical cane-farming regions of Queensland was investigated. It was found that, compared with the general population of Queensland, there were fewer deaths from neoplastic disease of the lymphatic tissues in women in both regions; that there were fewer deaths from neoplastic disease of the lymphatic tissues in men in Townsville, but not in the cane-growing areas; and that, during the period 1968-1981, there was a significantly lower number of deaths from leukaemia (13 deaths; SMR, 49; P less than 0.01) in women over 60 years of age in the cane-growing areas, which contrasted with a significantly greater number of deaths from leukaemia (61 deaths; SMR, 154; P less than 0.01) in men 60 years and over in the cane-growing areas.
