occupational neurological disease

lung cancer in chemical workers

urinary symptoms in polyurethane foam (9009545) workers

gynacomastia in estrogen exposed workers

lead (7439921) and renal abnormalities (case study)

Washington surveillance program on the arsenic (7440382) experience (case study)

male occupational reproductive disease

mesothelioma in railroad workers

hypersensitivity pneumonitis in an office building

cancer mortality in a die casting and electroplating facility

leukemia in nuclear shipyard workers

mining related to smoking and lung cancer

mortality study testing a possible association between occupational exposure to formaldehyde (50000) and cancer

exposure response relationship between exposure to styrene (100425) and central nervous functions

occupational asthma due to platinum (7440064) salts

pesticide poisoning among antimalaria workers

chronic respiratory disease in cotton textile workers
