Els individus que han estat exposats durant almenys 30 anys a determinats productes qu\u00edmics presents en pesticides i detergents tenen fins a un 32% m\u00e9s de probabilitats de desenvolupar un limfoma. <\/p>\n
Aix\u00ed ho conclou un estudi liderat per S\u00edlvia de Sanjos\u00e9 i Laura Costas, del Programa de Recerca en Epidemiologia del C\u00e0ncer de l\u2019ICO del grup de recerca en Virus i C\u00e0ncer de l’IDIBELL<\/span>, que ha publicat la revista British Journal of Cancer. <\/p>\n Un limfoma \u00e9s una proliferaci\u00f3 maligna de limf\u00f2cits, unes c\u00e8l\u00b7lules que formen part del sistema immunitari de l\u2019organisme. Generalment es produeix en els ganglis limf\u00e0tics, per\u00f2 tamb\u00e9 pot afectar altres teixits com el fetge i la melsa. Per la seva part, la leuc\u00e8mia limf\u00e0tica cr\u00f2nica afecta els limf\u00f2cits que circulen per la sang. <\/p>\n Hi ha diversos tipus de limfomes, que es divideixen en dos grups principals: el limfoma no-Hodgkin i el limfoma Hodgkin (o malaltia de Hodgkin). En els dos grups, la incid\u00e8ncia \u00e9s superior en homes que en dones. Del primer grup, la incid\u00e8ncia \u00e9s de 12,3 casos per cada 100.000 habitants en homes i de 10,8 en el cas de les dones. En el cas de limfoma de Hodgkin, \u00e9s de 2,5 casos per cada 100.000 habitants en homes i de 2,1 casos en dones. <\/p>\n No hi ha causes clares que expliquin l\u2019aparici\u00f3 d\u2019un limfoma. Diversos estudis indiquen que les probabilitats de patir-lo augmenten en persones sotmeses a transplantaments d\u2019\u00f2rgans o que pateixen infeccions per virus com el VIH, el de l\u2019hepatitis C o una infecci\u00f3 tarda pel virus d\u2019Epstein-Barr. <\/p>\n L\u2019estudi que ha publicat The British Journal of Cancer forma part del projecte Epilymph, que es va dur a terme en sis pa\u00efsos europeus (Espanya, Fran\u00e7a, Alemanya, It\u00e0lia, Irlanda i la Rep\u00fablica Txeca). <\/p>\n Es van entrevistar 2.178 persones diagnosticades de limfoma i 2.457 sanes d\u2019edat i sexe similars. Entre d\u2019altres, els participants havien d\u2019indicar aquelles feines que havien desenvolupat a jornada completa durant almenys un any. <\/p>\n Els investigadors han concl\u00f2s que els homes que van estar en contacte amb determinats productes qu\u00edmics durant almenys 30 anys tenen fins a un 32% m\u00e9s de risc de desenvolupar limfoma que les persones que no van estar exposades a aquests productes. Aquesta associaci\u00f3 no s\u2019ha trobat en dones. <\/p>\n Les subst\u00e0ncies qu\u00edmiques en q\u00fcesti\u00f3 s\u00f3n les denominades disruptors endocrins, \u00e9s a dir, que interfereixen amb les hormones del sistema endocr\u00ed: poden activar o bloquejar els receptors hormonals o modificar la producci\u00f3 de les hormones naturals. Estan presents sobretot en pesticides, detergents, additius del pl\u00e0stic i retardants del foc. L\u2019estudi ha determinat que l\u2019exposici\u00f3 puntual no incrementa el risc de patir limfoma, per\u00f2 s\u00ed que ho fa la continuada. <\/p>\n Les conclusions d\u2019aquest estudi coincideixen amb les d\u2019un treball dut a terme entre m\u00e9s de 82.000 grangers d\u2019Estats Units, que ha determinat que aquells que han estat m\u00e9s exposats a pesticides tamb\u00e9 tenen m\u00e9s risc de patir limfoma. <\/p>\n Occupational exposure to endocrine disruptors and lymphoma risk in a multicentric European study<\/strong>.
