Occupational benzene exposure and the risk of chronic myeloid leukemia: A meta-analysis of cohort studies incorporating study quality dimensions?

摘要

We documented previously that if study quality is accounted for, evidence from occupational cohort studies on benzene supports a possible association with some lymphoma subtypes, in particular multiple myeloma, and acute and chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Here, we extend these analyses to chronic myeloid leukemia (CML).
