| Research Abstract |
To evaluate the long-term health effect due to occupational asbestos exposure, we conducted a historical cohort mortality study of workers exposed to asbestos in a refitting shipyard in 1996 (Ind Health 1999, 37, 9-17). This report updated the results. This study showed a significant excess of asbestos-related mortality such as lung cancer and asbestosis among workers in a refitting shipyard as well as the previous report. But no incidence of new mesothelioma and larynx cancer has confirmed. We proceed to research this study and plan to evaluate the final mortality risk among this cohort.
