Interpretation of negative epidemiological evidence for carcinogenicity
279
The oil-refining industry considers as a top priority the necessity to ensure that petroleum products are safe to produce, handle and use. During 1985 CONCAWE continued its work in this area, with studies on product classification and labelling, ecotoxicology and occupational health and safety aspects, especially the results of exposure to petroleum hydrocarbons. is available from CONCAWE, Report No. l/86, “1985 Annual Report”, Babylon-Kantoren A, Koningin Julianaplein 30-9, 2595 AA The Hague, The Netherlands.

After an introduction on statistical considerations, oral contraceptives, hair dyes, hydrazine, formaldehyde, DDT, saccharin cyclamates, phenobarbital, isoniazid, nitrates, and beryllium are considered in relation to laboratory and epidemiological evidence; each chapter concludes with an evaluation of present findings. As it is generally agreed that for cancer, in the majority of cases, is preventable, the results of this Symposium are of particular interest, especially the extent to which laboratory data can be useful in field studies.
