RESEARCH ON MORBIDITY DUE TO CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES AMONG THE WORKERS EXPOSED TO LEAD AND CADMIUM WITHIN A NONFERROUS METALLURGY FACTORY
Abstract:
This study aims at analysing morbidity due to chronic diseases among the people working in a nonferrous metallurgy factory, as well as the possible contribution of lead to the increased level of morbidity due to these diseases, on a sample group of subjects with chronic cardiovascular diseases. The obtained results have shown certain correlations between the exposure, certain rates of internal burden and the level of cholesterol and triglycerides, results which were comparable to literature data, as well as to the conclusions of other studies.
