Abstract

Recently, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified outdoor air pollution and the particulate matter component of outdoor air pollution as class I carcinogen. Air pollution is consistently associated with lung cancer in epidemiologic and experimental studies. The IARC assessment is specifically designed as hazard identification, and it does not quantify the magnitude of the cancer risk. This article addresses the magnitude of the lung cancer risk in the population due to ambient air pollution exposure.

环境空气中细颗粒物对肺癌的影响。

最近，国际癌症研究机构(IARC)将室外空气污染和室外空气污染中的颗粒物成分列为I类致癌物。在流行病学和实验研究中，空气污染一直与肺癌有关。国际癌症研究机构的评估是专门为确定危害而设计的，它没有量化癌症风险的程度。本文讨论了暴露于环境空气污染的人群中肺癌风险的大小。
