title: [Urinary kallikrein in cadmium-exposed workers].
abstract: The urinary kallikrein activity was determined in a group of 20 young workers exposed to cadmium and to lower concentrations of lead and other toxic agents. Two of them were suffering from labile hypertension. The urinary kallikrein activity of exposed workers was found to be reduced by more than 80% in comparison with a control group.
