Residential proximity to industrial combustion facilities and risk of non-Hodgkin lymphoma: a case–control study

摘要

BackgroundResidence near municipal solid waste incinerators, a major historical source of dioxin emissions, has been associated with increased risk of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in European studies. The aim of our study was to evaluate residence near industrial combustion facilities and estimates of dioxin emissions in relation to NHL risk in the United States.
