在洛杉矶县的男性中进行了一项病例对照研究,以进一步调查颅内脑膜瘤的原因。脑膜瘤患者和每个人的邻居都接受了采访,了解可能与肿瘤发展有关的过去经历。对105对配对信息的分析显示,与头部创伤和头部X线相关的各种因素与脑膜瘤的发生有关:1)曾从事拳击运动[比值比(OR)= 2.0,P = 0.03],2)有严重的头部损伤(3)20岁以前接受过头部X线治疗和(或)1945年以前接受过5次以上全口牙X线检查(OR = 3.5,P = 0.02)。在105例受试者中,72例(69%)有至少一种这些因素的暴露史。
A case-control study among men in Los Angeles County was conducted to investigate further the causes of intracranial meningiomas. Meningioma patients and a neighbor of each one were interviewed about past experiences that might be associated with tumor development. Analysis of information from the 105 matched pairs showed an association with meningioma occurrence for various factors relating to head trauma and head X-rays: 1) ever boxed as a sport [odds ratio (OR) = 2.0, P = 0.03], 2) had a serious head injury (OR = 1.9, P = 0.01), and 3) had X-ray treatment to the head before 20 years of age and/or had five or more full mouth dental X-ray series before 1945 (OR = 3.5, P = 0.02). Of the 105 subjects, 72 (69%) had a history of exposure to at least one of these factors.
