  • Title: [Morbidity with temporary disability in railway tunnel workers].
    Author: Kudrin VA, Prokhorov AA.
    Journal: Gig Sanit; 2003; (2):27-9. PubMed ID: 12861685.
    Abstract:
    The paper presents data on the health status of a large professional group of transport building workers--those who build BAM railway tunnels and those who build Moscow and Saint Petersburg underground stations. Major factors that are associated with underground work and that form the level of morbidity with temporary disability are identified. Respiratory, osteomuscular, digestive diseases, accidents, intoxications, and injuries are predominant in the structure of temporary disability. Lines of better organization of therapeutical-and-prophylactic aid to this contingent are defined.
