- A review of waste management practices and their impact on human health. (2009, background): “The largest retrospective cohort study (Cardis et al., 2005) carried out on 598,068 workers (90% men) in the nuclear industry in 15 countries concluded that there was a small excess risk of cancer for a cumulative dose of 100 mSv (90% of workers received cumulative doses of less than 50 mSv, 5%…”
- The 15-Country Collaborative Study of Cancer Risk among Radiation Workers in the Nuclear Industry: Estimates of Radiation-Related Cancer Risks (2007, background): “As discussed previously, however (23), although confounding by smoking may be present, it is unlikely to explain all of the increased risk for all cancers excluding leukemia in this study.”
- Cancer risks from diagnostic radiology. (2008, methodology): “It should be noted that there is considerable variation between the results from the various countries, with one data set showing a negative risk and one showing a noticeably larger risk than the others, although detailed analysis did not reveal any of the data sets to be statistical outliers [32, 3”
