[Health and social effects of faciocranial traumas sustained during work in light industry workshops].

In the years 1967-76 at the laryngological clinic 35 patients with faciocranial traumas sustained during work at a light industry plant were treated. Considerable amounts of serious faciocranial injuries (10 cases), and frequent accompanying injuries (mostly lesions of eyes and central nervous system) were found. Direct social cost of those accidents in terms of hospitalization was 482 days and in terms of disability for work--738 days.

[Effects of small nitrogen compound concentrations on the upper respiratory tract].

The authors examined a group of 160 persons employed at an exposure to small concentration (below HAC) of nitrogen and ammonia oxides, and a group of 130 controls. It was found that in the group of subjects exposed to toxic compounds the percentage of persons suffering from inflammation of the upper respiratory tract was much higher (37.5%) than in the control group (13.1%). Olfactometric examinations indicated a disadvantageous effect of the mentioned compounds upon the acuity of the sense of smell, whereas rhinospirometric examination did not reveal any differences between the control group and the group of persons exposed to nitrogen and ammonia oxides.
