methanol and Respiratory Tract Neoplasms

methanol has been researched along with Respiratory Tract Neoplasms in 13 studies

Methanol: A colorless, flammable liquid used in the manufacture of FORMALDEHYDE and ACETIC ACID, in chemical synthesis, antifreeze, and as a solvent. Ingestion of methanol is toxic and may cause blindness.
primary alcohol : A primary alcohol is a compound in which a hydroxy group, -OH, is attached to a saturated carbon atom which has either three hydrogen atoms attached to it or only one other carbon atom and two hydrogen atoms attached to it.
methanol : The primary alcohol that is the simplest aliphatic alcohol, comprising a methyl and an alcohol group.

Respiratory Tract Neoplasms: New abnormal growth of tissue in the RESPIRATORY SYSTEM.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"A total of 592 incident cancers were observed among this cohort (SIR=1."1.32Cancer incidence among union carpenters in New Jersey. ( Dement, J; Lipkus, IM; Pompeii, L; Samsa, GP, 2003)
" This assumption should be supported by further dose-response studies."1.31Carcinogenicity assays of wood dust and wood additives in rats exposed by long-term inhalation. ( Amelung, F; Klein, RG; Schmezer, P; Schroeder, HG; Woeste, W; Wolf, J, 2001)
"In contrast, no excess of gastric cancer could be detected in men working in the manufacture of wooden building materials and wooden furniture, and a risk below unity was seen for those in carpentry and joinery."1.27Risks for respiratory and gastric cancer in wood-working occupations in Denmark. ( Jensen, OM; Møller, H; Olsen, JH, 1988)
"No increase in risk was found for laryngeal cancer, lung cancer, or sinonasal cancers other than adenocarcinoma."1.27Respiratory cancers in furniture workers. ( Ahlbom, A; Gerhardsson, MR; Kiviranta, HJ; Norell, SE, 1985)
