Measuring the biological embedding of chronic stress
Background Epidemiological studies on chronic stress and cancer risk have produced inconsistent findings, likely due to challenges in measuring stress exposure. The allostatic load model offers an alternative biomarker-based framework by capturing the biological embedding of chronic stress. Objectives To examine the association between allostatic load and cancer risk, compare alternative operationalizations of the allostatic load construct, and a…

Air Pollution and Birth Outcomes
Air pollution is considered an ongoing major public health and environmental issue around the globe, affecting the most vulnerable, such as pregnant women and fetuses. The aim of this study is to estimate the health impact and economic value on birth outcomes, such as low birthweight (LBW), preterm birth (PTB), small for gestational age (SGA), attributable to a reduction of PM 10 levels in Spain. Reduction based on four scenarios was implemented:…
Exploring Urban Green Spaces’ Effect against Traffic Exposure on Childhood Leukaemia Incidence
Despite their opposite effects on childhood leukaemia incidence individually, our results do not suggest a possible interaction between both exposures. This is the first study about the interaction of these two environmental factors; consequently, it is necessary to continue taking into account more individualized data and other possible environmental risk factors involved
Exploring Blue Spaces’ Effects on Childhood Leukaemia Incidence
Our results suggest a possible association between lower childhood leukaemia incidence and blue-space proximity. This study is a first approach to blue spaces' possible effects on childhood leukaemia incidence; consequently, it is necessary to continue studying these spaces-while taking into account more individualised data and other possible environmental risk factors
Cancer Mortality and Deprivation in the Proximity of Polluting Industrial Facilities in an Industrial Region of Spain
Residential proximity to industrial facilities that release pollutants is a source of exposure to a high number of toxics, many of them known or suspected carcinogens. The objective of the study was to analyze the association between lung, larynx, bladder, and kidney cancer mortality and deprivation in areas proximate to polluting industrial facilities in Cadiz, a highly industrialized province in Spain. An ecological study at census tract level …
Colorectal cancer mortality and industrial pollution in Spain
Given the exploratory nature of this study, it would seem advisable to check in other countries or with other designs, if the proximity of industries that emit pollutants into the air could be an added risk factor for colorectal cancer mortality. Nevertheless, some of the differences between men and women observed in the analyses of the industrial groups suggest that there may be a component of occupational exposure, little-studied in the case of…
P2-251 Industrial pollution and cancer in Spain; a simple industrialisation index
Introduction Our objective is to study the relation between industrial pollution and cancer in Spain by defining a simple industrialisation index (town level), using the information from the European Pollutant Release and Transfer Register (E-PRTR). Materials and Methods We used data on industries from the PRTR-Spain for year 2007. We selected the 3458 facilities with positively validated co-ordinates. For the 8098 Spanish towns we defined the in…
SP1-82 Colorectal cancer mortality and its possible relationship with exposure to industrial pollution in Spain
The European Pollutant Release and Transfer Register (PRTR) constitute a valuable resource for monitoring health effects of industrial pollution. Our objective is to ascertain whether there might be excess colorectal cancer (CRC) mortality among populations residing in the vicinity of Spanish industrial installations governed by the PRTR
Study of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma mortality associated with industrial pollution in Spain, using Poisson models
The reported association between exposure to air pollution from the paper, pulp and board industry and NHL mortality is independent of the model used. Inclusion of spatial random effects terms in the risk estimate improves the study of associations between environmental exposures and mortality.The EPER could be of great utility when studying the effects of industrial pollution on the health of the population
Lung cancer mortality in towns near paper, pulp and board industries in Spain
The study of cancer mortality in areas surrounding pollutant foci is a useful tool for environmental surveillance, and serves to highlight areas of interest susceptible to being investigated by ad hoc studies. Despite present limitations, recognition is therefore due to the advance represented by publication of the EPER and the study of pollutant foci
Description of industrial pollution in Spain
A few single industrial plants are responsible for the highest percentage of emissions, thus rendering monitoring of their possible health impact on the surrounding population that much simpler. Among European countries Spain is the leading polluter in almost one third of all EPER-registered pollutant substances released into the air and ranks among the top three leading polluters in two-thirds of all such substances. Information obtained through…
Modelling of municipal mortality due to haematological neoplasias in Spain
Objectives: To study the geographical pattern of mortality caused by haematological tumours in Spain at the municipal level using three Bayesian models and to compare their goodness of fit. Methods: The fitted Bayesian hierarchical models were: (1) the Besag York and Molliè (BYM) model; (2) a model based on zero-inflated Poisson (ZIP) distribution, which allowed a large number of event-free areas; and (3) a mixture of distributions that enabled d…
