目标
总结有关农民和农场工人前列腺癌风险的文献，评估风险程度并确定农业工作特有的风险因素的存在。
方法
检索和回顾了最近的文献，仅选择了病例对照研究，其中提出了几种职业的阳性和阴性比值比，而只选择了队列研究和死亡证明研究，这些研究提出了几种癌症部位的风险估计，无论是升高还是降低。
结果
在大多数审查的研究中，观察到农民前列腺癌发病或死亡的风险略有增加。目前尚不清楚这种超额风险是由特定职业暴露还是个人生活方式中的风险因素（例如饮食习惯）引起的。有证据表明杀虫剂和其他农用化学品的使用与前列腺癌风险之间存在关系。
结论
农民患前列腺癌的风险可能略有升高。然而，实际的风险因素仍然是一个猜测。
OBJECTIVE
To summarize the literature on the risk of prostate cancer among farmers and farm workers, to evaluate the magnitude of the risk and to determine the presence of risk factors peculiar to agricultural work.
METHODS
Recent literature was searched and reviewed, selecting only case-control studies in which both positive and negative odds ratios were presented for several occupations, while only cohort studies and death-certificate studies were selected which presented risk estimates for several cancer sites, elevated as well as decreased.
RESULTS
In most of the studies reviewed, a slight excess risk of prostate cancer incidence or mortality was observed among farmers. It is as yet unclear whether this excess risk is caused by particular occupational exposures or by risk factors in their personal lifestyle (e.g. dietary habits). Evidence was found for a relationship between the use of pesticides and of other agricultural chemicals and the risk of prostate cancer.
CONCLUSION
Farmers probably have a slightly elevated risk of contracting prostate cancer. However, the actual risk factors are still a matter of conjecture.
前列腺癌的发病机制特别涉及环境因素。
