  • Title: [Hygienic significance of noise level in the development of diseases with temporary disability among petroleum-processing plant workers].

    Journal: Gig Tr Prof Zabol; 1991; (3):19-21. PubMed ID: 1879731.
    Abstract:
    A correlation was established between morbidity with temporary disability among oil-processing plant workers and the levels of the noise dosages received in one working shift. The morbidity rate among the engine-drivers examined was generally higher than that in the group of operators. The correlational analysis of morbidity versus the complex hazard indices revealed that the latters' growth resulted into increasing morbidity rate, but the same correlation was less vivid in case with the workers affected with the smallest noise dosages (up to 1.0). The noise dosage increase (over 4.0) revealed no adequate correlation between morbidity and the complex hazard indices.
