[Epidemiological survey on symptomatology of subject exposed to carbon disulphide (author's transl)]

Some epidemiological parameters were recorded in a group of 185 workers of a rayon viscose factory. An higher prevalence rate of diseases and an higher relative risk for respiratory, digestive, cardiovascular and nervous morbidity in exposed people were found. In order to put into evidence the existence of chronic CS2 intoxication in non-occupationally CS2-exposed people, the authors suggest to investigate morbidity in people who live near these factories.
