This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders in professional truck drivers and their impact on the occurrence of road accidents. Materials and Methods: In this descriptive study, 200 professional truck drivers were selected by a two-stage cluster sampling method from occupational medicine centers in Tehran province, Iran in 2017. The data were collected from the two groups of with and without accident. The three-part questionnaire on ergonomics and safety of drivers was used, which included items asking about demographic characteristics, stress, job satisfaction, details of accidents, and the severity of musculoskeletal disorders in nine areas of the body. The central indices and non-parametric statistical tests (Kruskal-Wallis, Spearman) were applied to analyze the data using spss Ver 24. Results: The highest frequency of pain was observed in drivers without and with accidents in the back, knees, and shoulders, respectively; however, the most severe pain was reported for the low back and neck. Drivers between 45 and 60 years old reported the highest number of accidents. The association correlation between the number of road accidents and stress score among drivers with accident experience was negatively significant (P > 0.05). However, the association between musculoskeletal disorders and accidents was not statistically significant. Conclusion: Factors other than musculoskeletal disorders were involved in road accidents that require more investigations.","PeriodicalId":140710,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Occupational Health and Epidemiology","volume":"103 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116837246","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to summarize the evidence on the effects of heat stress on renal function among individuals exposed to occupational heat stress. Materials and Methods: In this systematic review, all papers on the effect of heat stress on kidney function among workers at any workplace and heat level were included. Reviews, case reports, conference proceedings, letters, editorials, s without full text, in-vitro, and animal studies were excluded. Furthermore, studies conducted on children, general populations, and hospitalized patients, as well as those not measuring heat stress, were also excluded. Medline, Scopus, ISI, and Embase databases were searched from 1st January 1991 to 19th October 2021. Search criteria were prepared by combining an 'exposed population' AND 'exposure' AND 'outcome' keywords. Quality assessment was done using the National Institutes of Health Quality Assessment tool. Results: A total of 24 articles with 14,282 participants were considered for qualitative synthesis. Although most papers indicated a positive association between heat stress and kidney dysfunction, especially regarding dehydration, the present study found heterogeneous evidence. Glomerular filtration rate, serum creatinine level, and albumin-to-creatinine ratio, due to occupational heat stress, were other markers mentioned in primary studies. Conclusions: This review highlighted the impact of occupational heat stress on renal function. Among the markers investigated in this review, most studies reported a positive association between occupational heat stress and dehydration. © The Author(s) 2022;All rights reserved.

Noise annoyance is a strong measurable mental response. It is a reaction that a person expresses to the noise exposure. Thus, this study investigates the correlation between noise exposure and its annoyance in terms of mental health components. Materials and Methods: This was a correlational descriptive study conducted on 100 workers. Respondents were recruited by a simple random sampling method. The equivalent sound level (LeqA) was determined using dosimetry. The numerical scale of ISO/TS 15666:2003 was used to measure noise annoyance. Mental health components were determined using the SCL-90 mental health questionnaire. Data analysis was performed in SPSS software (version 22) using Mann-Whitney, Kruskal–Wallis, and correlation tests. Results: The median of mental health and noise annoyance were 38 and 6.5, respectively. A positive correlation was observed between equivalent sound level (LeqA) and noise annoyance score (P<0.001, r=0.92). A significant correlation was found between mental health components (depression, anxiety, self-morbidity, obsession and compulsion, aggression, morbid fear, paranoid thoughts, psychosis, and sensitivity in interpersonal relationships) and equivalent sound level (P<0.001). Also, a significant correlation was observed between noise annoyance score and mental health components (P<0.001).

The experimental group did the exercises for 12 weeks with five 15-minute sessions per week. The severity of neck pain was determined using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Head and neck angles were measured at baseline and after 12 weeks using photogrammetry and Kinovea software in two postures (reading and typing). Results: About 60% of the participants in the experimental group reported moderate and severe neck pain, decreasing to 26.2% after the intervention. The score of neck pain intensity in the experimental group decreased in the range of 1.15-1.75. The head and gaze tilt angles and head forward position after the intervention in the experimental group showed a significant decrease. Also, the head tilt angle was significantly increased after the intervention.

Also, the correlation coefficients between health anxiety and existential thinking showed a negative and significant association between the two variables (r =-0.28, P <0.001). In addition, the moderated hierarchical regression analysis showed that the interactive effect of health anxiety and existential thinking on nurses' empathy with patients with COVID-19 was 29%.

This study aimed to evaluate the clinical and epidemiological features of COVID-19 patients in Rafsanjan County.

Collected data included demographic information (age, sex, etc.), information about the method of referral to the hospital, contact history, previous history of infections, clinical symptoms associated with the disease, and data on comorbidities. Data were analyzed using a chi-square test and logistic regression coefficients. Results: The three common clinical symptoms were fevers (46%), muscular pain (44.6%), and coughs (34%). The most common comorbidity was hypertension (7.9%), and the case fatality rate was 10.8%. Besides, the death ratio in confirmed patients was significantly higher than that in suspected cases (P < 0.001). The chance of death in men was 16% higher than Women's (OR = 1.166). The chance of death in people with cancer and in people with reduced levels of consciousness was 9.1 and 5.5 times, respectively, higher than that in patients without comorbidity (P < 0.001).

This study aimed to describe the vaccination coverage required to stop the spread of COVID-19 in Sri Lanka using a mathematical modeling strategy. Materials & Methods: This longitudinal study used age-stratified and unstratified Susceptible-Infectious-Recovered (SIR) models. Data on the population's age distribution were acquired from the census report of the Census and Statistics Center of Sri Lanka, consisting of groups: below 30, between 30-59, and over 60. Models with differential equations forecasted the spread of COVID-19 with vaccination based on parameter estimates and numerical simulation, assuming fixed population, infection, and recovery rates. Results: Simulations investigated how the susceptible, infected, and recovered populations varied according to the different vaccination coverages. According to the results, 75% vaccination coverage was required in the entire population of Sri Lanka to interrupt the transmission of COVID-19 completely. The age-stratified SIR model showed that over 90% of vaccination coverage in each age group (below 30, between 30-59, and over 60) was required to interrupt the transmission of COVID-19 in the country altogether. Conclusions: The number of COVID-19 infections in each age group of Sri Lanka reduces with the increase in vaccination coverage. As 75% vaccination coverage is required in Sri Lanka to interrupt the transmission of the disease, precise vaccination coverage measurement is essential to assess the successfulness of a vaccine campaign and control COVID-19. © The Author(s) 2022;All rights reserved.
