Four pages of library index cards summarizing Italian articles from La Medicina del Lavoro, 1967 to 1972. Studies by Ghezzi, Vigliani and others reported that at the Balangero chrysotile mine 6 of 270 dead workers had died of lung cancer and no case of mesothelioma was found, and that among workers compensated for asbestosis in Piedmont, Liguria and Lombardy, pleural and lung tumors were most common among former insulation workers (19.5%) and least common among chrysotile miners (2.6%). Other cards cover asbestosis among shipyard and naval workers and Vigliani's paper on the fibrogenic response to asbestos.
