Description
Lian Gou and seven co-authors present a study of long term benzene poisoning in Chinese workers; the text was published in 2024, though the catalog lists 2025. Benzene is a widespread chemical that can cause leukemia. Workers exposed to it over years can develop a chronic poisoning that is a known job health problem in China.
The team drew 176 confirmed cases from a reporting system in Sichuan, covering 2005 to 2019. They logged sex, birth dates, years of exposure, firm size, ownership type, and industry. Men and women showed no clear gap in age or in how long they were exposed. The mix of cases by sex shifted across four time spans, and the paper maps those patterns.
