Add to ORKGObjectivesTo examine the relation between occupation and cumulative lead exposure\ue2\u20ac\u201dassessed by measuring bone lead\ue2\u20ac\u201din a community-dwelling populationMethodWe measured bone lead concentration with K-shell X-Ray Fluorescence in 1,320 men in the Normative Aging Study. We categorized job titles into 14 broad US Census Bureau categories. We used ordinary least squares regression to estimate bone lead by job categories adjusted for other predictors.ResultsService Workers, Construction and Extractive Craft Workers, and Installation, Maintenance and Repair Craft Workers had the highest bone lead concentrations. Including occupations significantly improved the overall model (p<0.001) and reduced by \ue2\u2c6\u201915% to ...
