The association between occupational exposure to biocides and pesticides through a job-exposure matrix and thyroid cancer was examined by some researchers using data from a population-based case-control study involving 462 incident thyroid cancer cases and 498 controls in Connecticut collected in 2010-2011.
It was observed that individuals ever-exposed to biocides had a high risk of thyroid cancer ( OR=2.18, 95% Cl 1.28 to 3.73)
No significant association between occupational exposure and cancer was found.
