| Abstract:: |
| Objective To investigate occupational radiation exposure effects on human non-cancer diseases. Methods A cohort study for medical diagnostic X-ray workers and medical workers who never engaged in X-ray work was carried out. Results The significantly enhanced noncancer deaths for X-ray workers were showed as follows:ischaemic heart disease, RR was 1.39 (P <0. 01);cerebrovascular disease, RR=1.36 (P <0.01);aplastic anemia, RR=10.35 (P <0. 01);disease of the nervous system, RR=2 06 (P <0.01);disease of the skin and subcutaneous tissues, RR=3.23 (P <0.05). Conclusions Long-term occupational X-ray irradiation can enhance the overall risk of deaths, in which, risk for heart disease, cerebrovascular disease and aplastic anemia deaths may significantly related to the occupational exposure. |
