Mortality among workers at the Los Alamos National Laboratory, 1943-2017

John D. Boice et al.

Summary: The study analyzed the mortality experience of 26,328 workers first employed at Los Alamos National Laboratory between 1943 and 1980, with majority being hired before 1960. Most workers had a college degree, and a significant percentage were female, white, and Hispanic. The study found little evidence of radiation increasing the risk of lung cancer or leukemia, but esophageal cancer was associated with radiation and plutonium intakes were linked to an increase in bone cancer. Non-radiation related health issues were also observed among Hispanic workers.

Mortality among uranium miners in North America and Europe: the Pooled Uranium Miners Analysis (PUMA)

D. B. Richardson et al.

Summary: The Pooled Uranium Miners Analysis (PUMA) study found increased mortality rates among uranium miners due to various causes of death, including lung cancer and silicosis. It highlights the importance of long-term follow-up of these workers to monitor health outcomes over time.

Risk of cancer associated with low-dose radiation exposure: comparison of results between the INWORKS nuclear workers study and the A-bomb survivors study

Klervi Leuraud et al.

Summary: The study compared estimates of radiation-cancer mortality risk from the Life Span Study (LSS) and an international nuclear worker study (INWORKS), finding similar results. Both studies showed an increase in excess relative risk of solid cancer with increasing attained age, while the risk for leukemia differed.

Lung Cancer in the Mayak Workers Cohort: Risk Estimation and Uncertainty Analysis

Daniel O. Stram et al.

Summary: This study re-examined lung cancer mortality rates among workers at the Mayak nuclear facility in Russia, finding that both external gamma-ray and internal plutonium exposures significantly increased lung cancer incidence rates when considering dose uncertainty.
