Abstract:
Objective ( )
To investigate the association between urinary polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons PAHs metabolites

and high normal blood pressure in coke oven workers. A total of 433 coke oven workers were selected as the study

subjects using convenient sampling method. They were divided into normal blood pressure group and high normal blood pressure
group according to their blood pressure level. The levels of ten kinds of urinary hydroxylated PAHs metabolites were measured by

consumption night shift exercise frequency and other PAHs metabolites. Exposure to PAHs in coke oven
plants may increase the risk of elevated blood pressure within the normal range among coke oven workers.
