[Respiratory disease morbidity in workers in ferrovanadium production].

Links between the occupational factors of iron-vanadium production and respiratory morbidity in workers are revealed in the article. The work conditions of such occupational groups as preparatory workers (preparing and splitting of a furnace charge, slag grinding), roast workers, hydro- and electric metallurgy employees are evaluated by hygienic methods. Structure, relative risk and the standardized risk of respiratory diseases formation were shown in different occupational and age groups.
