Journal article reporting a follow-up of men who had worked at least 10 years at an English asbestos textile factory, where the asbestos was mainly chrysotile with some crocidolite. It relates crepitations, 'possible asbestosis', certified asbestosis, chest radiograph findings and lung function to dust exposure and smoking. It also compares dose-response models and discusses what they imply for the 2 fibre/cm3 hygiene standard. unreviewed
