A comparative analysis of the data on the influence of complex medicinal and vegetable dusts (jute, flax, kenaf) on the respiratory organs, revealed the clinical signs of the byssinosis symptom-group in 49 cases (7.34%) of 667 technological textile workers investigated, and 10 cases (5.8%) of 171 tablet shop workers at a pharmaceutical plant. Byssinosis and its syndrome developed among the workers engaged in "dust shops" after 13 +/- 2.5 years of work. Similarity of the clinical symptoms was also proved by bronchospasm pharmacological diagnostic test (to a greater degree than in the sample group). |
