Background The toxic oil syndrome (TOS) epidemic that occurred in Spain in the spring of 1981 caused approximately 20 000 cases of a new illness. Overall mortality and mortality by cause in this cohort through 1994 are described for the first time in this report.

Results We identified 1663 deaths between 1 May 1981 and 31 December 1994 among 19 754 TOS cohort members, for a crude mortality rate of 8.4%. Mortality was highest during 1981, with a standardized mortality ratio (SMR) of 4.92 (95% confidence interval [CI] : 4.39-5.50) compared with the Spanish population as a whole. The highest SMR, (20.41,95% Cl : 15.97-25.71) was seen among women aged 20-39 years during the period from 1 May 1981 through 31 December 1982. Women<40 years old, who were affected by TOS, were at greater risk for death in most time periods than their unaffected peers, while older women and men were not. (...) |
