Exposure to diesel exhaust increases the risk of lung cancer. One in five Australians is exposed to diesel exhaust in the workplace. This project will provide an exposure-response relation between diesel exhaust and lung cancer based on Australia-specific data. We will also estimate the number of lung cancer cases due to diesel exhaust exposure in Australia. We will do this by studying all miners in WA in the last 15 years, by linking several databases that are available in WA.

接触柴油机废气会增加患肺癌的风险。五分之一的澳大利亚人在工作场所接触柴油废气。该项目将根据澳大利亚的具体数据提供柴油机废气与肺癌之间的因果关系。我们还将估计澳大利亚因柴油废气暴露而导致的肺癌病例数。我们将通过研究过去15年中西澳的所有矿工来做到这一点，通过链接西澳可用的几个数据库。
