| Abstract |
Lung function was impaired in 38 healthy workers after they were engaged in the loading and unloading of airplanes; this decrease could not be demonstrated in a control population. Parameters measured were: forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), maximal expiratory flow. |
