title: [Bronchial and pulmonary diseases in workers exposed to irritant gases].
abstract: Individuals working in atmosphere of relatively medium (up to 3 MACs) levels of irritant gases demonstrate 1.7 times higher incidence of chronic bronchitis vs. general population does. Chronic bronchitis in these cases is often preceded by moderate bronchial obstruction. The contact with irritant gases is accompanied by immunity changes.
