717 cases of occupational disease diagnosed in the shipyard during 1968-1978 were analysed epidemiologically. High incidence of occupational diseases was found in the population examined, with a decreasing tendency during recent two years. Results of measurements of hazards concentrations and intensities, exhibiting often exceeded MAC values, along with quantitative distribution of particular occupational diseases, indicated evident impact of the shipyard working environment on the occurrence of those diseases, the morbidity risk being the highest at the workstations of forgemen, welders, and painters. Welders were Most frequently afflicted with pneumoconioses (45.9%), forgemen--with occupational hearing impairments (78.5%) and painters--maintenance technicians with dermatoses (44.6%). Occupational diseases prevalence was 6.5 fold higher among workers aged over 40 than among younger workers.
对1968年至1978年期间造船厂诊断出的717例职业病病例进行了流行病学分析。在所检查的人群中发现职业病发病率很高，且在最近两年呈下降趋势。危害浓度和强度的测量结果常常超过职业接触限值，连同特定职业病的定量分布，表明造船厂工作环境对这些疾病的发生有明显影响，在锻工、焊工和油漆工的工作岗位上发病风险最高。焊工最常患尘肺病（45.9%），锻工——患职业性听力损伤（78.5%），油漆工——维修技术人员患皮肤病（44.6%）。40岁以上工人的职业病患病率比年轻工人高6.5倍。
