[Epidemiological risk factors of larynx cancer among natives and immigrants in the Upper Silesian region].
A case-control study has been used to analyse risk factors such as tobacco smoking, pollution exposure in the microenvironment of the place of work, ambient air pollution in the living place among natives and immigrants for larynx cancer in Upper Silesia Region. There were tested 399 cases (269 natives and 130 immigrants) and 942 controls (557 and 385 respectively). Tobacco smoking and exposure to air pollution in the place of work is connected with increased incidence of larynx cancer risk among natives and immigrants. It was shown that there is no connection between larynx cancer and the degree of air pollution in the living place among natives.
