Finding F-1195
“The pooled estimate for the association between exposure to benzene and CVD death also trended toward a positive effect (meta relative risk, 1.09 [95% CI, 0.99–1.21]; I2=91.4 [95% prediction interval, 0.82–1.46]).”
Structure
- Factor
- Benzene
- Outcome
- Cardiovascular disease (CVD)
- Study design
- systematic review and meta-analysis of 36 studies of volatile organic compound exposure and cardiovascular disease: random-effects and fixed-effects pooled estimates for volatile organic compound mixtures, for toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene, and for benzene against cardiovascular death (class 2)
- Effect
- RR 1.09 (0.99–1.21)
- Flags
- ci-includes-1
- Caveat
- the prediction interval crosses one in both directions, so the pooled estimate says little about any single population
