In his letter, Professor Sorahan1 poses an important question about our paper,2 namely, whether the results indicate that occupational exposures to agents such as rubber dust, rubber fumes and nitrosamines in the rubber industry are associated with increased risk of mortality from cancers of the bladder, lung, stomach, oesophagus, prostate, larynx, brain, pancreas, liver, and lymphatic and haematopoietic tissue. Sorahan argues that causation does not seem to be warranted since results from a second...

Hidajat et al have recently published a further report1 from an updated mortality study of UK rubber workers set up in the 1970s.2 In a statistically complex analysis based on assumed job histories, Hidajat et al1 reported positive associations for a host of cancer sites and all occupational exposures that they considered (rubber dust, rubber fume, nitrosamines). Taken at face value these findings might suggest that current workers in the rubber industry are not adequately protected against cancer...
