| Abstract | Mortality for malignant neoplasms of pleura in Lombardy, 1980-87, was investigated in order to detect municipalities showing significantly increased standardized mortality ratios, with reference to regional rates, based on at least three observed cases. Neighbouring municipalities were taken into account as well, and a series of areas characterized by increased mortality rates were defined. The geographic location of these areas seems to be correlated with the distribution of industries manufacturing asbestos products. |
