Abstract |
Results of clinical and encephalographic examinations carried out on 105 workers exposed to styrene and 52 controls. Highly significant differences were found in the incidence of pseudoneurotic symptoms, with signs of inhibition manifesting themselves as increasing tiredness and a tendency to drowsiness. However, the number of vegetative disorders and headaches did not increase significantly within 3 years. As regards the EEG, disorders of the basic rhythm, a disturbed encephalogram and an increase in sleep rhythms were recorded. |
