    Author: Draga P, Marcus M, Darko P.
    Journal: Jugosl Ginekol Perinatol; 1990; 30(5-6):157-9. PubMed ID: 2094799.
    Abstract:
    Only a small proportion of pregnancy failures could be explained by simple genetic or clear--cut environmental/occupational factors. Adverse reproductive outcomes (spontaneous abortion, preterm delivery, low birth weight and congenital malformations), have been reported in a certain number of retrospective studies which were designed to examine the possible role of occupation and working or living conditions and pregnancy outcome. Future prospective projects should assess the (non)existence of the relationship between radiological risks and job stress with pregnancy outcome. Future prospective projects should assess the (non)existence of the relationship between radiological risks and job stress with pregnancy outcome among female video terminal operators.
