Summary' of. Findings1
jA clinical and epidemiologicaT'-jtudy of 436 subjects from a plant making-.
2,4,5-f frn 1948-69 was carried out. The subjects in the data analysis consisted ft '%
of 4l8 while maj^es: 204 subjects were defined as exposed, 163 not exposed, and
there were 51 subjects whose exposure was questionable. The remaining 18 who were
not included in the epidemiological comparisons were 5 black males, 10 white
females, 1 male American Indian, 1 male of Hispanic origin, and 1 male not employed
at Monsanto but exposed to material of the runaway reaction as a child. Since the
number of this group was too small for comparisons they were not included in the
statistical analysis.
The data on each subject included historical information about illness from
childhood to 1979, results of a comprehensive physical examination, clinical
laboratory tests, organ function tests and x-rays.
The analysis of the data on 418 subjects indicates the following:
1. Chi or acne is the dramatic clinical hallmark which clearly separates the
expos^^rom- the pot' exposed or those of questionable exposure; 86% of the -204
exposed developed chloracne and this condition persisted in 52% of the exposed.
" *' .
V":# "* .
There wera no cases ofv.chloracne in the not exposed Jpr those of Questionable
exposure. -
v
2. Actinic elastosis, a degenerative condition affecting the elastic y?
tissues
in
the
d.er\mis is
known
to
be
related
to
the -
degree
of
exp.~.~osure
to y-
sunlight
and is*age ap#$kin coloration dependent. In this study the frequency of actinic
elastosis Was 59% in the exposed as compared to 30% in the not exposed.i When
corrected for age there was still a significant difference between the-.exposed and
not exposed. A biologically significant observation indicates that actinic
elastosis in the exposed is found predominantly in subjects with persistent
23774#
chloracne largely in and around the site of the chloracne and that the elastosis *i ..
is ore $|vere when found with chloracne. 3. f There were 15 cases of hirsutism; 11 cases of malar hirsutism we
observed in the exposed group associated with chloracne. 4. An historical finding which deserved critical analysis was the
statistically significant relationship between exposure and history of upper gastrointestinal ulcers even when adjusted for age. The innate deficiencies in the data which limit drawing conclusions from these data are:
a. The information is based on interview history not medical records or current examination.
b. The data provide prevalence information not incidence. No comparisons can be made with incidence of upper gastrointestinal ulcers in the region or the national population for the age groups encountered.
The data is therefore suggestive and not conclusive.5. The information assembled about cardiovascular effects indicate that
the historical occurrence- of hypertension, coronary artery di-sease and cerebrovastular accidents obtained by interview are age related, not exposure or chloracne related. The blood pressure findings on physical examinations reveals no significant differences between the exposed and the not exposed group when the criteria for abnormal levels were defined by age.
The few abnormal findings elicited by ECG examination included statistically significant differences in occurrence of PVC's and PAC's when the exposed were compared to the not exposed. These were found to be age, not exposure related.
6. When the data about pulmonary effects were assembled it was found that there was a greater frequency of pulmonary granulomatous disease on x-ray
-2-
237742
examination among both the exposed and the not exposed groups when the >50 year oid
i .*t
--
,*
were omj>a||d to the <50 year old. The pulmonary function examination revealed
consistent differences in all parameters (FEV, FVC, FEV]/FVC, and MMEFR) between 'I
the exposed and not exposed groups only if they are present smokers. The
ffi
confounding factors were that the exposed group was 10 ^ears older than the not*
exposed and that 13 of the exposed were coal miners before they started to work for
Monsanto. Among current smokers with no coal mining experience however, there
were significant differences in FEVi, FVC and MMEFR between the 2,4,5-T process
exposed and the not exposed.
7. When clinical laboratory data other than lipids were reviewed no
differences were found between the exposed vs. the not exposed, the chloracne vs.
no chloracne group.
8. Lipid findings were considered separately and in relation to exposure,
" age, and therpresence of chloracne; - When exposure-alone was^considered there-were:
no. significant differences in the.freque.ncy of .abnorrna1Jevels in.all parameters
. - , : V*'
tested. Frequency of abnormal HDL levels-however were;somewhat greater in those , *" ' . % -
with persistent chloracne, than those who never had or formerly had^chloracne and >*
there was a greater frequency of abnormal LDL levels among those who only had a
history of chloracne. Since the total number of abnormal values is small, the
biological significance of these statistical differences is uncertain.
9. In the neurobehavioral aspects of the study no differences in
neurological examination findings between the exposed and not exposed groups were
found that were not age associated or with other known etiologies such as
extensive burns, W.W.II injuries, cervical nerve damage, cervical spurs, etc.
In full recognition of the inherent problems associated with carrying out and
3
Interpreting nerve conduction velocity tests, a critical analysis of the
qualified subjects was made. No significant differences in motor and sensory
-3237743
functions were observed between the exposed and not exposed groups, between those
whorhad ejlloracne* and'=those who did not, after adjusting for age. / .' \ In tie interview, questions were asked about nervousness, decrease in libido
1
and impotence. Nervousness was reported more frequently among the older exposed A
group than the younger exposed group. Recognizing the cultural considerations
which influence replies to questions about sexQal. matters, decreased sexual
desire was reported more frequently among the exposed than the not exposed.
However, it should be noted that there was a 10`year difference in mean age between
the exposed and not exposed. When the two groups were compared on the basis of
age, the differences in sexual desire and impotence were age related pot exposure
related.
10. Reproduction considerations
Again recognizing the inherent defects in the method of eliciting
clinical information, no significant differences in the frequency of birth
defects, stillbirths and miscarriages were found when, the exposed group was
compared with the not exposed group.
.
11. An unusual problem encountered only among the exposed were three cases
of Peyronie's Disease.
% This problem is characterized :|by induration and
4r
subsequently fibrous scarring of the corpus cavernosum of the penis producing
distortion on erection. This problem is not known to have any relationship to
toxic exposure.

tv Historical Review'
In 1949, at a plant of the Monsanto Chemical Company, Nitro, West Virginia, a runaway reaction occurred involving one of three autoclaves in Building 41 in which trichloropheno-1 was being prepared. This process accident occurred on
March 8, 1949, when under abnormal temperature and pressure conditions the safety
valve and pipe connection of this autoclave blew out and the contents scattered throughout the interior of the building as well as the surrounding terrain and structures.* The employees who were asked to clean-up the building and repair the damaged autoclave were the first to develop symptoms. They were chemical operators, pipe fitters and other maintenance personnel. The acute symptoms inc1ude.d,j.tri tation .of- the. respiratory, tract and eyes,.headache, .dizziness, nausea and a severe irritant reaction of the exposed skin. After the initial acute symptoms subsided, within 10 days to 3 weeks, an acneform eruption and other health effects were noted. The clinical findings, at that time, were acneform
* lesions, severe muscle pains affecting the upper and lower extremities, thorax and shoulders on exertion, easy fatigue, nervousness and ?r?itability, the com plaint of decreased libido, dyspnea, vertigo, and intolerance to cold. Of the four workers who were hospitalized in Cincinnati in 1949 for study, all had en larged and tender livers, one manifested sensory loss in a foot. Clinical lab oratory findings included severely delayed prothrombin time and a slight increase in total serum lipids. Histological examination of a nerve biopsy in the worker with pedal sensory loss demonstrated myelin degeneration. Follow-up examinations were conducted in April of 1950^ and subsequently, in 1953.2 In April of 1950 the original four and five additional subjects were seen. In 1953
-5- 237745
a tpt?l of ^ subjects were examined, seven of those having been seen in 1949 and
1950. \ Aftigr four years had elapsed, those symptoms and findings observed *
initially which were referrable to the nervous system and liver were no longer
found. Those with moderate to severe chloracne had improved considerably; there*,
was some persistence of the acne in those so affected.
In 1977-78 a mortality study^ of the group known to have been exposed to the
material of the runaway reaction was conducted. This population consisted of 121
males. The follow-up was 1005S complete for death certificate information.
Standard mortality ratios for all causes of death were determined.
In 1957, 2,3,7,8 tetrachlorb-dibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) was identified as a
toxic and acnegenic contaminant of trichlorophenol s y n t h e s i s . S i n c e that
time a considerable amount of scientific data has accumulated about the toxi
cologic, and cl inica! effects, associa ted,,with.,exposure, to the trOhl orophenol
process, to 2,4,5-T synthesis and to the^contaminant TCDD in man, experimental

and guinea pigs and the induction of hepatic carcinoma in rats.

OBJECTIVES OF STUDY
**
% The objectives of this clinical study were to determine and identify the
possible long-term health effects of chemicals associated with the making of
2,4,5-T, including 2,3,7,8 tetrachloro-dibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) and to determine
the increased risk for those adverse health effects which have been observed in
the sub-acute phase or sub-chronic state in man as well as the effects which have
been noted to occur in experimental animals including rodents, rabbits and sub
human primates. The objectives of the study, as reflected in its design, were
to determine increased risks for cutaneous, pulmonary, cardiovascular, gastroin-
,, testinal, hep at i c r e n a l neu rob ehav,ioral, problems, reproductive prob lems, birth,
defects, endocrinologic effects, effects on lipid metabolism, susceptibility to
infection and the possibility of increased risk for cancer.
A most appropriate population for this study consisted of the employees and
former employees of Monsanto Industrial Chemicals, Inc., Nitro, West Virginia
who were involved in the manufacture of 2,4,5-T from 1948 to 1969.
STUDY DE S I G N b The study design originally proposed the following three cohorts on the
basis of company medical records. . (1) Current employees, former employees and retirees who were exposed to the 2,4,5-T process during the period 1948 to 1969 and who were kr.own to have chloracne and/or other clinical manifestations attri buted to the process.
237747
-7-
(2)' Current employees, former employees or retirees, who were exposed to * %y v -
,5-T. protess during the period 1943-1969, but who were not known tcldevetop chloracne or other clinical manifestations attributable to the "process.
v ' (3) Current employees, former employes and retirees who were not exposed
to 2,4,5-T process and have no record of chloracne. In the planning stage, it was anticipated that approximately 150 subjects would be available for the study in each of the above cohorts. It was estimated a total of 400-500 employees and former employees would participate in the study. Both management personnel and members of the Medical Department of the Monsanto/ Nitro plant did an excellent job of recruitment of subjects for the study. However, it was recognized during review of questionnaires, including work history interviews as Well^ as 'pt^sician interviews and physical examination, that the participating ,subjects-did- not fulfill-.. some of the criteria- for *these original cohort requirements. Selection bias was a factor in voluntary participation. No subject was excluded from the examination. The number in the exposed cohort ex ceeded the number in the'non-exposed cohort. Subjects, who had never claimed or
* * been observed to have had chloracne, were found to have history and/or residual chloracne upon examination. There was disagreement with regard to definition of exposure, i.e., exposure and intermittent exposure. On the basis of information gleaned from:questionnaires and company work records t'*ee cohorts were consti tuted: 1) those who were clearly exposed to the 2,4,5-T process or its components; 2) those who were clearly not exposed and 3) those who were questionably exposed.

:
^
,
;.*'Tfe design of the study and on-site survey were directed by Dr. Raymond R.
Suskvid* ThSfinterviews and clinical examination of 436 subjects were conducted
during the week, June 11-18, 1979, in the Putnam County Health Center in
* Winfield, West Virginia by members of the Departments of Environmental Health and
Dermatology of the University of Cincinnati Medical Center. Personnel from the
, above departments irttluded physicians, nurses, graduate students in the De-
i1
partment of Environmental Health, technicians and interviewers. An average of 60
|,
persons were examined per day during the study, with fewer persons seen on
Sunday. The questionnaire and study program is found in Appendix I. t --Vi*4
The complete examination included: an interview, clinical laboratory
r , examination of blood and urine, pulmonary function tests, ECG, chest x-ray, nerve
i! ,
'
X conduction velocity measurements, and a complete physical examination, including
| skin examination by-dermatologists. During the-dermatological examination*
.. j' L
biopsies, skin_.scrapings, and photographs were taken as deemed appropriate by the ....- "
physician and when agreed to by the participating subject. The nerve conduction
velocity measurements were obtained for most subjects from two nerves: the
*m
peroneal nerve for motor function and the sural nerve for sensory function. In
a relatively small number of subjects (22) nerve conduction measurements were
j made on the ulnar nerve.
Clinical laboratory analyses included: blood calcium, phosphorous, BUN,
j creatinine, BUN/creatinine ratio, uric acid, glucose (CS), total protein,
albumin, globulin, albumin/globulin ratio, total bilirubin, direct bilirubin,

bulins.'Uri*rn7 alysis included routine examination as well a-s coproporphyriIns and uroporphyri^fe.* Blood serum lipid fraction examination completed by the Lipid
Research Division of the University of Cincinnati Medical Center included: serum cholesterol," serum triglyceride, serum HDL, and estimated serum LDL.
Chest x-rays were read by members of the staff of the Department of Radiology, University of Cincinnati Medical Center, under the supervision of Dr. Jerome Wiot. ECG's were interpreted by Dr. Te-Chuan Chou of the Cardiology Division, Department of Internal Medicine, University of Cincinnati Medical Center. Skin biopsies were prepared and read by Dr. Daniel Richfield, Dermatopathologist. Skin scrapings were cultured at the University of Cincinnati. Dr. A. Blair Smith initiated the examination of the data. Dr. Vicki Hertzberg, of the Biostatistics Division, performed all of the statistical analysis described in this report.
Data from the questionnaires were coded in the conventional manner by assigning numerical r values to the responses given. Normal ^and abnormal f indingsnoted by the examining physicians and salient details of each subject's medical
-V & ' J t history were coded using the SNOMED system. Chest x-rays were coded by. obser- *.
"&' '' .` vations and conclusions, drawn by members of the^Radio'l^gy ^^partment.. ECG findings were entered as?interpreted by members of the Divisidli-of Cardiology, Department of Internal Medicine. ECG findings were reviewed with the subject's history, clinical findings, and chest x-rays in order to determine significant ECG findings. Laboratory data were entered as received. All data were keypunched and verified by the University of Cincinnati Computer Center. The keypunched data were then compared to the original files of the study subjects for accuracy. A computer file containing information from the questionnaires,
* Values for urinary coproporphyrin and uroporphyrin were determined from a single void sample rather than the required 10 ml. aliquot of 24 hour volume; hence levels outside of the normal range cannot be regarded as significant.

physical examinations, laboratory findirigs^Was created. All extremely large or small values.for each variable were checked against the original values in the studyisubje^'s files. Following this second edit for accuracy of entered data,
*V % analysis of fata began, using statistical programs available through,the Statis tical. "rialysis System (SAS) con^uter package. The statistical procedures used are briefly described in Appendix II. As the analysis progressed, periodic editing continued so as to insure the greatest possible accuracy.
THE SUBJECTS OF THE STUDY
The total number of subjects in the study is 436. There- are 419 white males,
5 black males, 1 male of Hispanic descent, 1 male of American Indian descent, and
10 white females. One subject among the 419 white males was a 36-year old who was
exposed to runaway reaction residue in 1949-at the age of 6;- Since he*was not an
employee, he is not included in the data analysis. Since*the number of women and
non-white males is too small to be meaningful, they are not included in the
remainder of'the analysis." A*brief description of thse subjects, however, is
contained in Appendix III. Information about seX., rac, eduta&ton and a r r a n g e
is found in Table 1.
*

The cohorts designated by exposure are defined as follows?;
Group I - no exposure: 163 subjects
Group II - exposure, without qualification: 204 subjects
These subjects were involved in process and production and include
pipefitters, electricians and all other employees working in or around
the 2,4,5-T process.
Group III - questionable exposure: 51 subjects
This group includes laboratory and supervisory personnel not in
volved in production, but who occasionally handled 2,4,5-T or were around

For a number of the analyses, the clearly exposed group was compared tb the
clearly not exposed group. Group III constituted a suspected exposure category.

RESULTS
* ^ . Demographic Information \ tomographic data of the 418 white males were examined to determine 'i 1
potentially-confounding variables. Data on all subjects are found in Tables 14. The three groups were found to be'significantly different with respect to employment status (p<0.0001) (Table 2) and the highest education level achieved (p< 0.0001) (Table-3). -34.8% of the exposed were retirees and therefore in an older age group, whereas only 13.5% of the not exposed were retirees; 9.8% of the exposed were terminated, among them, employees who left the company in the era of
1949-1955 because of the health problem attributed to 2,4,5-T,.whereas only 0 .6%
of the not exposed group were in the category of terminated. -Tfie mean age of the not exposed and 'questionably exposed groups was ten years younger than the exposed group (Table 4).
B. Alcohfil and Smoking Use
--- ;}History of alcohol consumption was found not to be "significantly
''*
;*:
different in. the three group (Table j>). When smoking status (current, former,
**
never) wasjused as the criteria theri^was no difference between the exposed and
not exposed group (Table 6). However, when the two groups were compared for pack
years smoked, .the exposed group was significantly higher than the not exposed
group (Tabled). When present smokers were compared there was an almost 20 pack
year difference between the_ exposed and not exposed. There was a difference of
9 pack years between the exposed and not exposed group in the former smokers.
This probably reflects the.10 year age difference between the exposed and not
exposed group and the heavier consumption of cigarettes in the exposed group.
-13-
237753
C. Family History of Illness
.
J F^gily history of illnesses were compared; the results are given in
Table 7. a H of the comparisons are mde usingHFisher's exact test for *2 x 2
\ 5
,
tables. Family history of hayfever was foynd to be reported more often in the not
exposed group (0.01<p <0.05). A family history .of'heart attack or angina after
age 60 was reported significantly more often in the exposed group ( p < 0 .0 1 ).
0. History o r Medical Problems
The comparison of `the exposed and not exposed cohorts for illness
elicited by medical history is given in Tables 8-9. Chloracne is reported more
frequently in the exposed group: 86-27% in the exposed vs. 0.0% in the not
exposed and questionable exposure group. In the not exposed.group, acne vulgaris
occurred more frequently than in the exposed group. A history of upper, gastro
intestinal ulcer occurred almost 4 times more frequently in the''expos'group
than J n thejiot expose_d group (p < 0.005). When the medical history of the ex
posed and not exposed are compared for two (2) age groups, less than 50 vs. 50
years and older, skin cancer and cerebrovascular- accidents are only related
to age not exposure; exposure, not ag, appears to be a factor in the history of
upper gastrointestinal ulcer. Hypertension and coronary artery disease occur
more frequently in the older age group irrespective of exposure.
E. History of Medical Problems in Populations With and Without Chloracne
Since chloracne appears to be the prime clinical indicator of,
exposure, absorption and biological response, the study subjects were further
classified into three sub-groups within the exposed populations; i.e., those who
never have developed chloracne, those who had a history of chloracne but which
was not observed in the 1979 examination and those whose chloracne persisted and
-14-
237754
was
noted ,i
on V;c`'Jlinical
examination -
(tables
10-13).
Among the 204 clea*vrl*%y exposed,
176 devfelopejjchloracne at some period. Of these, 107. were found 4o have chlor-
acne oriexami|atiqn. Among the not exposed and questionably exposed, there were
none who presented a history of chloracne nor were they found to have evidence of,
chloracne on examination. In both age groups, history of upper G.I. ulcer is
more frequent in those who had chloracne than those who did not have chloracne
regardless of exposure (Tables 10 and 11). As in the exposed versus not exposed
group, the history of hypertension, cerebrovascular accident (CVA) and coronary
artery disease are clearly age-related, not chloracne related.
When the clinical histories of the exposed population only were examined in
relation to the history of and/or presence of chloracne, the same observations
are made about angina, hypertension and coronary artery disease in that they are
age-related not chloracne related. In the exposed group there is no association
between the-history of'upper G; Ft utoer and-chloracne (Table 12 Kr..:

occurred prior to exposure. In addition, there are fouh-subjects-among the

exposed group whose ulcers were related to-, cortisone therapy, ASA therapy or
alcoholism. If these 11 subjects are omitted from the analysis there are then 32
of 194 (16.49%) of the exposed group reporting ulcer vs. 9 of 163 (5.52%) among
the not exposed subjects. This difference is statistically significant upon age
adjustment (p=0.01). However, if the seven subjects reporting history of ulcer
before exposure are considered to be not exposed subjects because of the temporal sequence, there are then 32 of 194 (16.49%) of the exposed group reporting ulcer
-15- 237755
vs. 16 of l70 (9.4135). This'difference is not statistically significant upon' age
adjustment..
Other
wftti the following'
results; (1) There was no relationship found between exposure category and history
of ulcer among never smoking subjects. *
*
(2) Among formerly smoking subjects, 24.1055 (20 of 83) of the exposed
group report history of ulcer compared to 6.8535 (5 of 73) o f the
not exposed group (p< 0.005).
(3) There was no relationship found between exposure category and history
of ulcer among presently smoking subjects.
(4) There was no relationship found between exposure category and history
of ulcer among the'three categories of alcohol drinking (never,
former, and present).

These data haye the ad'ditional problem of being prevalence figures only as
opposed to incidence rates. 1 Also, report of upper gastrointestinal ulcer and
\
designation of ulcer by site is crude at best since neither examination by
gastrointestinal x-ray, nor endoscopy diagnosis was available.
Hence, while these data are suggestive, conclusions cannot be drawn due to
the equivocal findings and the crude nature of the data.

` F.:-. Physical Examination. Findings
V
l* ; : *The physica# e3faminatioi* revea1ed a w ide' range' of findings. The se are
cited\in a cyprehensive list in Appendix IV . The significant clinical findings
were, those associated with the skin and appendages, connective tissues, and
sexual complaints-* . The discernible abnormalities referrable to the cardio
vascular, pulmonary, hepatic, hematopoietic systems, and nerve function were
largely determined by objective tests in this study. These will be discussed
under organ function tests, radiography and clinical laboratory measurements.
The significant clinical findings as related to exposure status are
found in Table 14 and 15. As was indicated previously 52.4535 of those who were
clearly exposed still had chloracne. There is a significant difference in the
frequency of acne vulgaris among the not exposed as compared to the exposed,
11.6635 versus 1.9635. Among the exposed 120 or 58.8235 were found to have actinic
elastpsis_in contrast to 49 (30.0635) among the not exposed and 39.2255 among the
questionably exposed. There is a very significant difference in the occurrence
3of actinic elastosis between the exposed and not exposed in both age groups even
I thougS age is a factor in this clinical finding. Theri is a rather unique find-
l ing of 3 cases o f Peyronie's Disease among the 204 exposed. All of them had
Uchloracne at some time and they were all over 50 years old.
.-4 Rosacea and rhinophyma occurred in 4 exposed persons over the age of 50
arid 2 questionably exposed. The complaints of loss of libido occurred more fre
quently in the exposed than'the not exposed. When age was considered, the largest
number of complaints of loss of libido or impotence occurred in the older age
group but there were greater percentages of complaints about these problems in
the exposed group as compared to the not exposed.

Tables 16 and 17 identify the clinical findings in the exposed popu^
latien in relation to,,chloracrid status/ In these groups, actinic elastosi* is
found predominantly in the subjects with persistent chloracne (74.8%) but it also ri .

occurs significantly in those with a history of chloracne only (46.38%). 11 cases
of malar hirsutism were found among t( exposed in the persistent chloracne cases
(10.28%). 9 of these 11 cases occur in the group over 50.
Table 18 1isjts the sites and severity of chloracne observed on physical
examination. The distribution and severity of actinic elastosis is presented- in
Table 19. L: Since there appears to be some association of actinic elastosis with
chloracne further analysis of this relationship with respect to severity of
chloracne and severity of actinic elastosis was carried out. These analyses are \I presented in Table 20 and Table 21. Of the 67 mild cases of residual chloracne,
44 had actinic elastosis. Of the 36 with moderate chloracne 33 had actinic i!
elastosis. 33% of the actinic elastosis cases found with chloracne were severe.
It would appear that the percentage of persons with severe- act iiifc e! asto sisj*is

differences between the exposed and not exposed group. These criteria are
stricter than that proposed by the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute.^

"f Because of the suspected relationship of serum lipids to exposure
to 2,4,5-T and its contaminants, serum lipids are analyzed in several ways. Serum
cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL, and HDl were classified by age-specific per
centiles as determined by the National Lipid Research Project data^ (See Appendix
V). Serum cholesterol, triglyceride, and LDL were classified as "abnormal" if
they fell above the 90th percentile, and were classified as "normal" otherwise.
Serum HDL was classified as "abnormal" if it fell below the 10^^ percentile, and
was classified as "normal" otherwise. The frequency of abnormal lipid findings
are compared for exposed,, not exposed workers and questionably exposed (Table
- 23), and no significant differences are noted in cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL
and LDL.levels. These relationships are further investigated within each level
- . of smoking.status (present, former.and never) (Table. 24).. $mok.ing..appears:ta.-have-,
no effect on the differences, between these groups. Logistic regression was used

to detect associations of abnormal serum lipid findings with exposure. After.-,

Multiple linear regression was also used to detect possible
"Shifts" in the mean serum lipids for the two exposure groups after correcting
for the effects of age, tobacco, and alcohol. In all cases (cholesterol,
triglycerides, HDL, LDL) there are no significant differences between the two
exposure groups after adjusting for the effects of age, tobacco and alcohol.
When the lipid levels of the exposed group only are examined in
relation to the occurrence of chloracne, the HDL levels in those with persistent
chloracne are found to be somewhat lower than of the group with a history only of
-20- 237760
chloracne or those who never had chloracne (Table 25). Those who had a history

only of chlbracne have somewhat higher LDL* levels than those who had chloracne
currently ollnever. Among former smokers in the exposed group there is a greater
.I
` -'
' ...
. '1
frequency of abnormal triglyceride and HDL levels among those with residual
chloracne than those with no history or only history of chloracne (Table 26).
Among those who smoke presently there is a higher frequency of abnormal or high
LDL levels for those^who have a history only of chloracne.
2) Pulmonary Function Status
( Both FEVj and FVC were considered abnormal if the observed value was less than 80% of the predicted value of Morris. A FEVj/FVC ratio of less than
0.70 (70%) was considered to be abnormal. The ^ 2 5 - 7 5 was considered abnormal
if the observed value was less than 70% of the predicted value of Morris.
Consistent differences in abnormal pulmonary function values
(FEV|, FVC, FEVj/FVC and ^ 2 5 - 7 5 1 are ^ound between the exposed apd not exposed
.grdups (Table 27). Among present smokers there was a significant difference iir
pulmonary function values between the exposed and not exposed group. There are
^^L-^.ifferences in pulmonary function values, among persons who have formerly
jpoked or among persons who have never smoked when the exposed were compared to
Jar *
the not exposed (Table 28). -.*i
Logistic regression was used to detect associations of abnormal
pulmonary function parameters with exposure. The model and coefficients are
given in Appendix VI. The significance and odds ratios for abnormal pulmonary
function for exposed vs. not exposed after adjusting for pack years smoked are

The association of exposure and abnormal pulmonary function among
current smokers was investigated further for the confounding by prior coal mining
exposure. None of the not exposed subjects who currently smoke had prior coal
mining exposure'. Of the exposed subjects who currently smoke, 13 individuals had
prior coal mining exposure. Among the current smokers who had no coal mining

3) ECG.and X-ray bindings
.Tables 29'arid 30 list the occurrence of ECG findings in the e x '% T M : * posed and not exposed aswell* as the differences in occurrence when the exposed
and not exposed are "separated into <50 and ^ 5 0 year groups. Number of persons
with PVC's and PAC's appear to be only age-related. Tables 31 and 32 list the x-
ray findings in the exposed as compared to the not exposed as well as the
comparison between the <50 and >50 year old groups. Significant x-ray findings
findings appear to be age-related but not exposure related.
4) Clinical Laboratory Findings
In Table 33 the relative frequency of out of normal range values
is compared in the exposed vs. not exposed group. In Table 34 the relative fre
quency of out of normal range values of clinical laboratory findings for the
exposed group in relation to chloracne status is presented.

Fisher's exact test was used to determine the existence7: of
differences between the exposed and not exposed with respect -to the relative frequency of out-of-reference-range laboratory findings. The X 2 test for
independence in contingency'or two way tables was used to determine differences
in the three (3) chloracne groups with respect to the relative frequency of out-
of-reference-range laboratory findings (Appendix VII).
237763
In several other incidents involving the synthesis of trichloro*t *
phenol and 2,4,5-T, 'porphyria cutanea tarda was observed with uroporphyrinuria.:
Th exposedff.noj exposed and questionably exposed in this study were compared for
percentage of abnormal levels of coproporphyrin and uroporphyrins. No signi
ficant differences .were found (Table 35).
5) Nerve Conduction Velocity Data
Priop to the beginning of the data analysis, all subjects
reporting diabetes or reporting a high weekly alcohol intake were eliminated from
the analysis (high weekly alcohol intake was defined as greater than or equal to
35 oz. alcohol per week). After these deletions, there were 319 with complete
sural examinations and 336 with complete peroneal examinations remaining. The
data from the nerve conduction vel*ocity tudy were adjusted according to the, deJesus method (Appendix VIII). Tables 36-38 lists all nerve conduction
parameters considered. The following methods of analysis were then used:
a) .. Analysis of covariance was used to compare the
conduction parameters after adjusting^for age diffrences in the groups. No
significant differences were.found .betven ttm.,exii'and riot.ttmsed. . Also
within the exposed only* "ho relation tp ch 1
tus^' wfffound after
adjusting for age.
: b) Using the normal ranges provided by NIOSH (see Appendix IX)
the exposed group has a significantly higher proportion with abnormally low
peroneal nerve conduction velocities than the not exposed group (7451 vs. A9%y
p <0.0001). No differences were found with respect to abnormal sural nerve
conduction velocity or peroneal distal latency (not enough ulnars were tested to
say anything about them). However, Boyd points out that these ranges are not age-
adjusted. Moreover, temperature has a great effect on velocity and latency, and
-24- 2377G4
temperatures were not reported with- these rangs. *(Ranges and appropriate re^ ferences are e^tached). Among young men (age-<SO) no difference between e x p o s e d and'not exposed with respect to any of the. parameters was observed. Among the older merii(age ^50) a significantly higher proportion of the exposed group have abnormally low peroneal nerve conduction velocities as compared to the not exposed group (79% vs. 57%, 0.01 < p <0.05)-
c) The z-score method (as used by Selikoff) was als.o used to detect differences in the nerve conduction parameters between exposed and not exposed. No significant differences were found using this method.
H. Reproduction and Birth Defect Data In presenting this information it should be understood that all of the
data depended on personal recall of such information as number of pregnancies, miscarriages, live births, stillbirths, infant mortality, etc. Confounding factors which effect-accuracy are obvious-e.g. interviewed male subject only, ..agi"of subject, and-change in cultural- attitudes aboutreproductive matters. It
confounded by the fact that the pregnancies^miscarriages^ stillbirths not designated in a time period related to exposure e.g., pre, during, post exposure.
Fisher's exact test was used to compare the reported occurrence of re productive anomalies in the exposed group to the not exposed group. The data on rproductive and birth defect findings are found in Tables 39 and 40. No significant differences were found in miscarriages, in rate of birth defects or stillbirths.

,,4
~ Among ttoj| 204 pesions who were known to be exposed to the.2*4,5-T Synthesis
and preparation, there were 55 who were involved in a trichlorophenol process
runaway reaction, which occurred on March 8, 1949, described in the historical
introduction. There were a total of 122 persons known to have been involved in
this accident and with its products.
This group of 551was matched as closely as possible in age with an unexposed
group and a third group of exposed but not to the accident material. Since the
range of the runaway reaction group was 49 years and older, the matched unexposed
control group consisted of persons in the same age range, e.g.,^49 years. There
were 65 persons in the unexposed group. Because of the percentage of aging re-**
tirees in the TCP runaway group there was still a four year age difference between
the accident group and controls. There was no difference, in ge between the TCP
" 7 'accident group and the other exposed. - In the other-exposed,, group, Jthp.,ge..range
was **55. .There _we_re 77 subjects in. that groups Data comparisons were made
between the accident group and theunexposed groupes well as the accident group
and the other exposed group.
The following were the significant findings elicited: *
1) When smoking status was considered, the average number of pack years was
significantly greater in the TCP runaway group than the not exposed group by 10
pack years. The difference between the TCP group and other exposed group was 9.5
pack years. .
2) All of the TCP exposed had a history of chloracne; none of the not
exposed had chloracne; 83% of the other exposed group had a history of chloracne.
In the TCP group examined, 58.2% still had chloracne; in the other exposed 55.8%
still had chloracne.
-26- 237766
3) There were no significant differences in the current findings of chlor-
acne and a c i n i c elastosis between the TCP and the other exposed group.
4) The percentage of persons with actinic elastosis was significantly .
larger in the TCP group than the not exposed group (753 vs. 49%)- The difference
in the occurrence of actinic elastosis between the TCP and other exposed group
(75% vs. 68%) was not significant.
s 5) There was a significantly larger number of systolic murmurs found in
the TCP as compared to the other exposed group (12.7% vs. 1.3%, 0.01 p 0.05).
Although there appears to be a statistical difference between the percentage Of
abnormal BUN'S found in the TCP group (9.43% or 5/55) as compared to the other
exposed (1/73 or 1.37%) there was no difference between .the TCP group and not
exposed group (9.43% vs. 6.35%).
6) The complaints of nervousness were greater in the TCP. runaway group
than'the'hot*exposed controls (21.8% vs. 7.7%) . In th other exposed controls the
occurrence-of nervousness was 16.9%. .......

`
7) Logistic regression was used to compare TCP runaway group to the not i*
exposed and to the other exposed group, for abnormal serum lipid findings, while
simultaneously adjusting for pack years smoked. No significant differences were
found in either comparison.
"
'
:'r B) In the pulmonary function tests, the number of persons with abnormal
FEVj/FVC test findings in the TCP group was significantly greater than among the
m
not exposed. This same difference was seen among current smokers in the two
groups. There was also a slightly greater percentage of persons with abnormal
MMEFR among the TCP group who are currently smoking than the not exposed who are
currently smoking.
237767
9) Logistic regression was used to'"Compare*TCP runaway-exposed to not
exposed for fbnormal pulmonary functionalle adjusting for;,pack years stroked. No ***
relationship was found between TCP runaway exposure and abnormal FEV^f FVC or
MMEFR. However, a significant relationship was found between this exposure
classification and abnormal FEV^/FVC, with a greater frequency seen in the TCP
runaway group (p=0.01). The odds ratio is 4.02 for abnormal FEVj/FVC, given pack
years smoked, for TGP runaway exposure vs. not exposed.
Logistic regression was used to compare TCP runaway exposed to other
exposed for abnormal pulmonary function while adjusting for differences in pack
years smoked. No significant differences were found.

Other Work Exposures'jof the Study Population
'"jttervtKan 2,4,5-f, its intermediates, and/or contaminants, al.of the - .
workers in the study were exposed to multiple chemicals and industrial processes
under'varying working conditions, at Monsanto/Nitro and/or other industries, in
a period roughly between the late 1930's and 1979 (a few subjects were born before
1900).
Chemicals identified by the subjects as other Monsanto/Nitro exposures in
clude: rubber processing chemicals, i.e., diphenylguanidine; a group of benzo-
thiazolesulfenamide accelerators (Santocures); antioxidants, i.e., derivatives
of m-cresol; antiozonants (Flectols and Santoflexes), most of the Santoflexes
are p phenylenediamine derivatives; vulcanizing agents such as 4,4-dithiodi-
morpholine; insecticides, i.e., ethyl and methyl parathion. Additional chem
icals named were phthalic anhydride, o and p di chlorobenzene, o and p nitro-
phenol ^ :toluene .and mercaptobenzothiazole,^derivatives- o M M T D and-tri methy l--
quinoline components. One of the products, Sopanox* an ^ t i oxidant,, was alleged^
by the study subjects to be associated with the occurrence of kidney stones. The
reporting of the H/0 kidney stones is

groups.
'. .
One of the chemical hazards to which the study population was'exposed was
p aminobiphenyl, a known bladder carcinogen. Ninety-five subjects, or 22.722 of
the 418, reported exposure to p aminobiphenyl during the course of their em
ployment. To the best of our knowledge these subjects are periodically examined
in a monitoring program established by the Medical Department of the Company.
Subjects reported the exposure and the monitoring program during the interview
and to the examining physician. The data analyses relating to this exposure and

Discussion and Conclosions
.*
^
-The Strengths art^^eaknesses of this study must be considered critically in
any appraisal of the medical significance of the data elicited from it.
./Data gleaned from interviews and clinical examinations are useful but have
some inherent weaknesses. Medical, work and personal histories depend on memory;
findings of physical examinations carried out by different physicians are based on
judgments which (iay differ somewhat with the examiner. Nevertheless these.
constitute an important data base for making clinical judgments.
Since quantitative TCDD levels for any period during the manufacture of
2,4,5-T were not available, it was only possible to relate effects -found, to the
b history of definite exposure, no exposure, and questionable exposure to any aspect
of 2,4,5-T production.
Since chloracne" ls the hallmark of biological activity of TCDD it was
possible* in thi s study to* rel*ate al V systemic' and other cutaneous effects'tb* the'
* -*
-.
presence or absence .of chloracne -in the'exposed^group'a^eT-l-to exposure itself.
From this study one can conclude;that fpi^phose exposed to TCDD the-idramatic
long term effects are:cutaneou%-and/lnvo 1
1 1oslrfriceous apparatus and the
'7*^: -'* ` . elastic tissues of the dermis.; ChToracne may persist for* long as,3i^ears after
onset and is associated with elastic tissue changes irt/the dermis and some
persistence of malar hirsutism.
There are suggestive but inconclusive data indicating that for the exposed
there was an'increased risk for upper gastrointestinal ulcer; that'among those in
whom chloracne persists there is (although numbers are small) an association with
low HDL levels and further for those with only a history of chloracne there is an
association with higher LDL levels.
In those who currently smoke and have been exposed to the 2,4,5-T process
-31- 237771
materials there appears to be an association of abnormal pulmonary function findings when compared to those who smoke but who were never exposed.
There is no evidence from this study that there are identifiable long term Effects on'"the cardiovascular system, on the liver, on the gastrointestinal tract, on peripheral nerve function. There is no indication, on the basis of histories! Information (recognizing all of its weaknesses) that there was a greater risk for miscarriages, stillbirths, or birth defects among the families in which the male parent was exposed.

. *%- Logistic Regression
frfjBfnary variable (e.g., FEV-j, noridal or abnormal) each subject's
probability
p^itive response is modeled as a function of one or more
predietor variaJhle^fin this example, exposure group and pack years smoked),
as follows:
Prpb (FEV-j abnormal) - ] + `exp(-(6o + S-j x Pack Years +
where Z - 1 if exposed 0 1f not exposed
x Z) )
The Newton~Raphsom method is then applied to the entire sample to produce
maximum likelihood estimates of the coefficients of pack years smoked and
Z%the exposure variable. More details are given in The Analysis of Binary
Data (Q,R, Cq x , Chapman aricj Hall (1970) London).
The maximum likelihood estimates for the exposed vs. not exposed comparison
found are as follows;

ijti&tnient of Nerve Conduction Velocity Data
'- * * **
Fdt^urposes of analysis of the ner.ve conduction findings all cases
reporting, consuming*1more than 35 oz. of alcohol jj^r week were eliminated.
Also dropped from the analysis were all subjects giving a history of
diabetes.
^
To correct for temperature effects a mode temperature was calculated
for each limb across all participants in the study. The following data
adjustments were then made:
Ulnar or Peroneal
-v
a) NCV's were corrected to the mode of the midpoint nerve temperatures
using DeJesus et al.'s (1973) temperature correction equation,
Vc = V, .0.0419AT where
*VS = standardized NCV to standard^ (mode) temperature
Ve = measured velocity at the experimental temperature
AT = difference in C .between* standard and experimental temperatures
b)- Distal latencies were corrected to the mode of the distal temper
atures using DeJesus' temperature correction equation:
DL7= DL^: e''507AT
_ DLS = corrected distal latencies to standard temperature
DLe = measured distal latency at the experimental temperature AT = as above
c) Residual latencies were calculated by subtracting from the latency
(derived in b above) the terminal distance divided by the standardized
NCV (derived in a above).
237871
d) ^'iffstat^Ta^encies derived in b above'were correct to the irigde of the
/'
,t
nerve terminal distances using the equation below:
L**1 Lj+ ^Vj where .
Ls* = latency standardized to standard (mode) distance
L latency derived in b above
Vs = velocity derived in a above
S * difference between standard (mode) and experimental terminal distances
e) Ratio of amplitudes (proximal divided by distal) was calculated
Sural The only standardisations performed on the sural nerve consisted of
correcting the velocities to the mode.of the midpoint nerve temperatures as in a above.
