The Characteristics of respiratory ill health of wool textile workers / R.G. Love... [et al.]
Sumario: This study of west Yorkshire wool textile workers showed that high exposures existed in some jobs in the industry and that frequencies of symptoms of chronic bronchitis, wheeze, breathlessness, rhinitis, and conjunctivitis were associated with current exposure. They have carried out a cross sectional epidemiological study to determine the relations between lung functional and chest radiographic abnormalities and exposure to wool textile mill dusts and to ascertain the relation of atopy with dust concentration, job characteristics, symptoms, and abnormality of lung function
