The Soviet and British literature is briefly reviewed. Results and conclusions of the dermatological study of oil shale workers by the US Public Health Service in 1952-1955 are reported. A mortality and morbidity study currently undertaken by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, covering some 800 male workers and 320 controls, is described. |
