[Aspects of tuberculosis prevention in the industrial environment].

The dynamics were studied of the tuberculous endemy in a limited area of the Cluj-Napoca District over a period of 5--16 years. An industrial environment was considered in comparison with a non-industrial one in the vicinity. The results show a marked decrease in the incidence of tuberculosis in the industrial environment (from 710 0/0000 in 1961 to 102 3/0000 in 1976), but, at the same time, it was demonstrated that morbidity due to tuberculosis is higher as compared with the non-industrial area (318 0/0000 as compared with 49 0/0000).

[Risk factors and high-risk groups in the prevention of tuberculosis].

Starting from the premise that in the methodology of tuberculosis control priority should be given to the higher risk groups, the authors tried to identify such groups and list them in the order of their priority within the district of a dispensary serving a population of about 400,000 inhabitants. On comparing the results of the detection of risk factors among the population in general with that per endangered groups it was found that the former presented a decrease (from 1.09 to 0.

[Organizational aspects and effectiveness of integral radiophotographic detection in a pilot area with an industrial profile].

Organizatoric and efficiency aspects are presented of five integral detections (the fifth presently in the final stage), carried out over a period of 14 years (1960--1973) in the territory of the anti-tuberculous dispensary of Turda. In the course of the four radiophotographic detections that have already been finally processed approximately 400.000 subjects have been examined.
