Article Synopsis
- * A total of 23 studies were analyzed, with 9 studies on mortality showing generally no link between MMVF exposure and increased risk of NMRD mortality, while the remaining 14 focused on respiratory symptoms without strong evidence of an association.
- * The review highlights limitations in the existing studies, such as outdated data, reliance on self-reported information, and calls for future research to address these flaws for a clearer understanding of the health impacts of MMVF exposure.

Article Synopsis
- * Our search on MEDLINE/PubMed and Web of Science identified studies that we analyzed, showing a pooled relative risk (RR) of RTC among MMVF-exposed workers at 1.09.
- * However, when considering studies that accounted for key risk factors like asbestos and smoking, the RR decreased to 1.03, suggesting that MMVF exposure is not significantly associated with an increased risk of RTC.
