[Carcinogenic risk and epidemiology: thoughts on experience in the tanning and shoe industries]
Abstract
An epidemiological method is described that was applied to the study of cancer risk in tanning and shoe industries. The limitations of the epidemiological research carried out so far are stressed and priorities are discussed. In particular, methods for the surveillance of cancer risk need to be implemented and etiological studies with adequate statistical power should be planned for the future.
