Data on morbidity, mortality, and occupational exposures were provided in tabular form. Major topics covered in the report included asbestosis, malignant neoplasms of the pleura, coal workers' pneumoconiosis, silicosis, pneumoconiosis due to other inorganic dust, unspecified pneumoconiosis, byssinosis, hypersensitivity pneumonitis, and occupational asthma.
