Background

An association between long-term exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and lung cancer has been established in previous studies. PM2.5 is a complex mixture of chemical components from various sources and little is known about whether certain components contribute specifically to the associated lung cancer risk. The present study builds on recent findings from the “Effects of Low-level Air Pollution: A Study in Europe” (ELAPSE) collaboration and addresses the potential association between specific elemental components of PM2.5 and lung cancer incidence.

Methods

We pooled seven cohorts from across Europe and assigned exposure estimates for eight components of PM2.5 representing non-tail pipe emissions (copper (Cu), iron (Fe), and zinc (Zn)), long-range transport (sulfur (S)), oil burning/industry emissions (nickel (Ni), vanadium (V)), crustal material (silicon (Si)), and biomass burning (potassium (K)) to cohort participants’ baseline residential address based on 100 m by 100 m grids from newly developed hybrid models combining air pollution monitoring, land use data, satellite observations, and dispersion model estimates. We applied stratified Cox proportional hazards models, adjusting for potential confounders (age, sex, calendar year, marital status, smoking, body mass index, employment status, and neighborhood-level socio-economic status).

Results

The pooled study population comprised 306,550 individuals with 3916 incident lung cancer events during 5,541,672 person-years of follow-up. We observed a positive association between exposure to all eight components and lung cancer incidence, with adjusted HRs of 1.10 (95% CI 1.05, 1.16) per 50 ng/m3 PM2.5 K, 1.09 (95% CI 1.02, 1.15) per 1 ng/m3 PM2.5 Ni, 1.22 (95% CI 1.11, 1.35) per 200 ng/m3 PM2.5 S, and 1.07 (95% CI 1.02, 1.12) per 200 ng/m3 PM2.5 V. Effect estimates were largely unaffected by adjustment for nitrogen dioxide (NO2). After adjustment for PM2.5 mass, effect estimates of K, Ni, S, and V were slightly attenuated, whereas effect estimates of Cu, Si, Fe, and Zn became null or negative.

Conclusions

Our results point towards an increased risk of lung cancer in connection with sources of combustion particles from oil and biomass burning and secondary inorganic aerosols rather than non-exhaust traffic emissions. Specific limit values or guidelines targeting these specific PM2.5 components may prove helpful in future lung cancer prevention strategies.

ELAPSE 汇总队列中细颗粒元素成分的长期暴露和肺癌发病率

背景

先前的研究已经确定长期暴露于细颗粒物 (PM 2.5 ) 与肺癌之间存在关联。PM 2.5是来自各种来源的化学成分的复杂混合物,对于某些成分是否特别导致相关的肺癌风险知之甚少。本研究基于“低水平空气污染的影响:欧洲研究”(ELAPSE) 合作的最新发现,并探讨了 PM 2.5的特定元素成分与肺癌发病率之间的潜在关联。

方法

我们汇集了来自欧洲各地的七个队列,并对 PM 2.5的八种成分进行了暴露估计,这些成分代表非尾管排放(铜 (Cu)、铁 (Fe) 和锌 (Zn))、远程运输(硫 (S) )、石油燃烧/工业排放(镍 (Ni)、钒 (V))、地壳材料(硅 (Si))和生物质燃烧(钾 (K))到队列参与者的基线居住地址,基于 100 m x 100 m 网格来自新开发的混合模型,结合了空气污染监测、土地利用数据、卫星观测和扩散模型估计。我们应用了分层的 Cox 比例风险模型,调整了潜在的混杂因素(年龄、性别、日历年、婚姻状况、吸烟、体重指数、就业状况和社区水平的社会经济状况)。

结果

汇总研究人群包括 306,550 名个体,在 5,541,672 人年的随访期间发生了 3916 起肺癌事件。我们观察到所有八种成分的暴露与肺癌发病率之间呈正相关,调整后的 HR 为 1.10 (95% CI 1.05, 1.16)/50 ng/m 3 PM 2.5  K, 1.09 (95% CI 1.02, 1.15)/1 ng/m 3 PM 2.5 Ni,每 200 ng/m 3 PM 2.5 S 1.22 (95% CI 1.11, 1.35) ,每 200 ng/m 3 PM 2.5 V  1.07 (95% CI 1.02, 1.12)  。效果估计为很大程度上不受二氧化氮 (NO 2 ) 调整的影响。PM 2.5调整后质量,K、Ni、S 和 V 的效应估计值略有减弱,而 Cu、Si、Fe 和 Zn 的效应估计值变为空值或负值。

结论

我们的研究结果表明,与来自石油和生物质燃烧以及二次无机气溶胶的燃烧颗粒来源有关,而不是非尾气交通排放,肺癌的风险增加。针对这些特定 PM 2.5成分的特定限值或指南可能有助于未来的肺癌预防策略。
