  • Title: [Functional indicators of individual sensitivity to silicate dust in workers of ceramic tile and claydite industry].
    Author: Artamonova VG, Kuznetsov NF, Kadyskina AM.
    Journal: Med Tr Prom Ekol; 1993; (11-12):10-2. PubMed ID: 7921828.
    Abstract:
    The study covered 355 apparently healthy workers engaged into claydite and ceramic tile production. The silica dust was proved to cause the subclinical ventilation insufficiency in workers with long length of service, which proves a functional heterogeneity of workers. The latent ventilation disorders can indicate the individual hypersensitivity to silica dust.
