Of 227 workers examined the percentage of those with a history of atopy and positive skin tests for common allergens was within the expected range. Six had positive patch test with 2% NaF. Among seven workers with paroxysmal wheezing and dyspnea, of whom three were only light smokers, three had positive skin test with common allergens but only one of them had an increased IgE value. The same worker also had positive patch test for 2% NaF. The average age of workers with paroxysmal wheezing and dyspnea was 32.6 years, and only two had symptoms defined as chronic bronchitis. Although their forced expiratory volumes, with two exceptions, measured at the beginning of work shift were within normal limits, in most of those workers bronchial hyperreactivity was also objectively assessed using nonspecific bronchoprovocative tests with histamine (or metacholine). The results support our previous findings that acute respiratory impairment in some workers is most probably based on bronchial hyperreactivity and not on an allergic mechanism.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ajim.4700090306","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,4,16]],"date-time":"2007-04-16T19:17:26Z","timestamp":1176751046000},"page":"239-242","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":23,"title":["The role of atopy in potroom workers' asthma"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"9","author":[{"given":"Marko","family":"\u0160ari\u0107","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jasminka","family":"Godni\u0107\u2010Cvar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Milica","family":"Gomzi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Luka","family":"\u0160tilinovi\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2007,1,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_1_2_1","first-page":"684","article-title":"The effect of bronchitis, smoking and occupation on ventilation","volume":"87","author":"Brinkman GL","year":"1963","journal-title":"Am Rev Respir Dis"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_3_1","first-page":"796","article-title":"Asthma\u2010like disease among Norwegian aluminium plant workers","volume":"80","author":"Bruusgaard A","year":"1960","journal-title":"Tidsskr Nor Laegefor"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1164\/arrd.1983.127.4.465"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1164\/arrd.1972.106.1.38"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_6_1","first-page":"179","article-title":"Fluorine intoxication in Norwegian aluminium plant workers","volume":"56","author":"Frostad EW","year":"1936","journal-title":"Tidsskr Nor Laegefor"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_7_1","first-page":"47","article-title":"Investigation of possible fluorine poisoning among workers in an aluminium plant","volume":"15","author":"Hjort E","year":"1938","journal-title":"Nordl Med Tidsskr"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0091-6749(79)90158-1"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_9_1","first-page":"92","article-title":"Occupational asthma in the aluminium industry","volume":"113","author":"Maestrelli P","year":"1981","journal-title":"Eur J Respir Dis 62 Suppl"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_10_1","first-page":"249","article-title":"Variations of bronchial sensitivity to toluene di\u2010isocyanate in TDI workers","volume":"117","author":"McDonald EW","year":"1978","journal-title":"Am Rev Respir Dis"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_11_1","first-page":"1","article-title":"On the correlation between RAST and the allergy intradermal test","volume":"43","author":"Rappaport I","year":"1979","journal-title":"Ann Allergy"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00377775"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_13_1","first-page":"211","article-title":"Bronchoconstriction in potroom workers","volume":"36","author":"\u0160ari\u0107 M","year":"1979","journal-title":"Br J Ind Med"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_14_1","first-page":"27","article-title":"Bronchial reactivity in relation to occupational bronchitis and asthma","volume":"123","author":"Simonsson GB","year":"1982","journal-title":"Respir Dis 63 Suppl"}],"container-title":["American Journal of Industrial Medicine"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1002%2Fajim.4700090306","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/ajim.4700090306","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,20]],"date-time":"2023-10-20T16:48:07Z","timestamp":1697820487000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/ajim.4700090306"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[1986,1]]},"references-count":13,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-print":{"date-parts":[[1986,1]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1002\/ajim.4700090306"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/ajim.4700090306","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0271-3586","1097-0274"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0271-3586","type":"print"},{"value":"1097-0274","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[1986,1]]}}}
