Changes on radiographs of wives of workers exposed to asbestos.
Abstract
Between January and March 1986, 117 wives of insulation workers exposed to asbestos were screened by means of chest radiography, pulmonary function testing, and a detailed questionnaire. The final study group included 93 women over 40 years of age. Eighteen of these (19.4%) demonstrated pleural changes consistent with asbestos exposure, including pleural plaque (88.9%), diaphragm plaque (27.8%), pleural calcification (16.6%), and diffuse pleural thickening (5.5%). In statistical correlation between the groups with normal and abnormal radiographs, the only factor that proved significant was the year of first exposure (the duration of the latent period). Finally, radiographs of the husbands were compared for 17 of the 18 wives with radiographic abnormalities. Fourteen of the husbands (82%) demonstrated more severe radiographic changes than their wives.

“Likewise, the radiographic studies showed that the majority of the workers demonstrated more severe radiographic changes than their wives, and alternatively, if the wives showed radiographic abnormalities, so did their husbands [69,70].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
