.... A pooled analysis of case–control studies on exposure to occupational agents other than wood dust and risk of sinonasal cancer included 195 adenocarcinoma cases, 432 squamous-cell carcinoma cases and 3136 controls. Occupational exposures to formaldehyde, silica dust, textile dust, coal dust, flour dust, asbestos and MMVF were assessed with a job– exposure matrix. A significantly increased risk of adenocarcinoma was associated with exposure to formaldehyde. The wood-dust-adjusted ORs for the highest level of exposure were 3.0 (95% CI CI 1.5-5.7) among men and 6.2 (95% CI CI 2.0–19.7) among women. Elevated risks of squamous-cell carcinoma were also observed among men (OR = 2.5, 95% CI CI 0.6–10.1) and women (OR = 3.5, 95% CI CI 1.2–10.5) with a high probability of exposure to formaldehyde. A high level of asbestos exposure was associated with significantly increased risk of squamouscell carcinoma among men [278]. ....
