Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to explore the connection between different job histories and the risk of developing buccal mucosa cancer (BMC) in men aged 20-75 years, using a case-control approach across multiple centers in Mumbai.
- - Researchers found that certain occupations significantly increased the risk of BMC, including craft trades, machine operation, and elementary jobs, with specific groups like metal workers and drivers showing the highest risks.
- - The study suggests preventive measures, like minimizing hazardous exposure in these jobs and focusing on tobacco control, could help reduce BMC risk, and highlights the need for further research to pinpoint specific harmful exposures linked to the disease.
