Cancer-related changes and low-to-moderate exposure to welding fumes: A longitudinal study
Conclusion Low-to-moderate exposure to welding fumes was associated with a small effect on selected early epigenetic biomarkers of cancer. The direction of the methylation pattern (lower methylation of specific CpG sites) indicates early lung cancer-related changes associated with mild steel welding.PMID:34570895 | DOI:10.5271/sjweh.3988
