XXXX from the point of view of an occupational exposure to @entity1388 in former Czechoslovakia.

@entity1 @entity3617 @entity853 @entity305 @entity460 @entity5715 @entity1388 @entity1141
Electrolytic production of @entity5715 in former Czechoslovakia started in the year 1953 in the   iar valley in the central Slovakia. However, till 1995 the hygienic conditions for health protection were not met in the factory. It underwent a reconstruction afterwards.The authors demonstrate cases of @entity1141 (currently rare in Europe) in 14 metallurgists which were all disclosed in foundry workers in   iar nad Hronom as to the year 2005. The occupational disease was diagnosed after 17.7    7.67 years (x  SD) of exposure in the foundry.The authors describe the clinical conditions, haematological and biochemical tests (decreased level of ionising @entity460 was found in serum). The content of @entity1388 in urine was increased (254.4  130.95   mol/l). The average age of @entity1 at the time of recognition of the professional etiology of the disease was 57.93  7.95 years. Eight @entity1 were older than 60 years. @entity853 were evaluated by using X-ray skiagraphy, estimating the Stage I-III of the @entity1141 . Typically an increase of bone density was found, the compact part of long bones was coarsed, there were calcifications of the interosseous membrane between radius and ulna and some ossifications of the sacrospinal and sacrotuberous ligaments. Twelve @entity1 suffered @entity305 , chronic @entity3617 was found in 6 @entity1 (two of them were smokers).The last occupational case was registered in the year 2001. The authors assume that @entity5715 production with modern technology of better safety and protection of health of workers is the key which will make the @entity1141 the history in the Czech and Slovak Republic.
