Dose–response relationship between urinary PAH metabolites and blood viscosity among coke oven workers: a cross-sectional study

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been proven to be a risk factor for cardiovascular disease in coke oven workers, and increased plasma viscosity is a signal for higher risk of catching up cardiovascular disease. We want to explore whether the plasma viscosity is affected by the concentration of PAHs.Our study is a cross-sectional dose-response study.Participants in this study came from a coke plant in Taiyuan, Shanxi.We used data of...
