In order to clarify the transmission mechanism of the impact of mechanization on the occupational health of miners and to provide empirical evidence for the development of new quality productivity in the coal industry that balances health and efficiency. In August 2022, we selected a typical coal mine, constructed a comprehensive evaluation index of miners' occupational health through a questionnaire survey based on the fully connected neural network model. A Bayesian model was used to verify the influence of mechanization level on miners' occupational health. We found that: the predicted probability of occupational diseases could be used as a comprehensive indicator of the level of occupational health, providing a basis for early intervention and prevention of occupational diseases. Mechanization could directly promote the improvement of miners' occupational health level, and also indirectly affect occupational health level by influencing hazards level and work intensity. The indirect effect of mechanization on work intensity was positive, and the indirect effect of mechanization on hazards level was positive. Presented the "inverted U-shaped" process in the mechanization breakthrough semi-mechanized level would realize the economies of scale of health protection, its impact on the prevention and control of occupational hazards would turn from negative to positive.
为厘清机械化对矿工职业健康影响的传导机制,为煤炭行业发展兼顾健康与效率的新型优质生产力提供实证依据。2022 年 8 月,我们选取典型煤矿,基于全连接神经网络模型,通过问卷调查构建了矿工职业健康综合评价指标。采用贝叶斯模型验证了机械化水平对矿工职业健康的影响。我们发现:职业病预测概率可作为衡量职业健康水平的综合指标,为职业病的早期干预和预防提供依据。机械化可直接促进矿工职业健康水平的提高,也可通过影响危害程度和工作强度间接影响职业健康水平。机械化对工作强度的间接影响为正,机械化对危害水平的间接影响为正。呈现 "倒 U 型 "过程的机械化突破半机械化水平将实现卫生防护的规模经济,其对职业危害防治的影响将由负转正。

Objective: To analyze the comprehensive blood inflammation index of the patients with stage I pneumoconiosis complicated with pulmonary infection, and to explore its value in predicting the patients' disease. Methods: In September 2023, 83 patients with stage I pneumoconiosis who were treated in Tianjin Occupational Diseases Precaution and Therapeutic Hospital from November 2021 to August 2023 were selected and divided into non-infected group (56 cases) and infected group (27 cases) according to whether they were combined with lung infection. Workers with a history of dust exposure but diagnosed without pneumoconiosis during the same period were selected as the control group (65 cases) . By referring to medical records and collecting clinical data such as gender, age, occupational history, past medical history, hematology testing, the differences in the comprehensive blood inflammation indexes among the three groups were compared, ROC curve was drawn, and the relationship between comprehensive blood inflammation indexes and stage I pneumoconiosis and its combined lung infection was analyzed. Results: There were significtant differences in the number of neutrophils (N) , the number of lymphocytes (L) , the number of monocytes (M) , C-reactive protein (CRP) , the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) , the monocyte to lymphocyte ratio (MLR) , the platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) , the systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII) , the systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) , the aggregate index of systemic inflammation (AISI) , the derived neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (dNLR) , the neutrophil to lymphocyte and platelet ratio (NLPR) , and the C-reactive protein to lymphocyte ratio (CLR) (P<0.05) . Compared with the control group, MLR, SIRI and AISI in the non-infected group were significantly increased (P<0.05) . NLR, MLR, PLR, SII, SIRI, AISI, dNLR, NLPR, CLR were significantly increased (P<0.05) . Compared with the non-infected group, NLR, PLR, SII, SIRI, AISI, dNLR, NLPR and CLR were significantly increased in the infected group (P<0.05) . ROC analysis showed that NLR, MLR, PLR, SII, SIRI and AISI had a certain predictive capability for stage I pneumoconiosis (P<0.05) , among which MLR had the highest efficacy, with an AUC of 0.791 (95% CI: 0.710-0.873) , the cut-off value was 0.18, the sensitivity was 71.4%, and the specificity was 78.5%. NLR, MLR, PLR, SII, SIRI, AISI, dNLR, NLPR and CLR all had a certain predictive capability forstage I pneumoconiosis combined lung infection (P<0.05) , among which CLR had the highest efficacy, with an AUC of 0.904 (95%CI: 0.824~0.985) , the cut-off value was 5.33, sensitivity was 77.8%, specificity was 98.2%. Conclusion: The comprehensive blood inflammation index may be an auxiliary predictor of stage I pneumoconiosis and its combined lung infections.

Objective: To explore the effect of the absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2) -mediated neuroinflammation in noise-induced cognitive dysfunction in rats. Methods: In April 2023, sixteen male Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group and noise group, with 8 rats in each group. The rats in the noise group were placed in 50 cm×50 cm×40 cm transparent boxes and exposed to 100 dB (A) white noise with a sound pressure level of 100 dB (A) (4 h/d for 30 d) . At the same time, rats in the control group were kept in similar boxes with environmental noise less than 60 dB (A) . After 30 days of noise exposure, the Morris water maze experiment was applied to test the learning and memory abilities of the rats; the pathological morphology of hippocampal tissues was observed by Hematoxylin-Eosin (HE) staining. Western blot was used to detect the protein expression levels of AIM2, cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase-1 (caspase-1) , apoptosis-associated speck-like protein (ASC) , interleukin-1β (IL-1β) , IL-18, ionic calcium-binding articulation molecule-1 (Iba-1) , and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) . The expression of both Iba-1 and GFAP in hippocampal tissue was assessed by immunohistochemical staining. The co-localization of AIM2 with Iba-1 or GFAP was determined by immunofluorescence double staining. Results: Compared with the control group, the escape latency of rats in the noise group was increased by 16.29 s, 17.71 s, and 20.26 s on days 3, 4, and 5, respectively. On day 6, the noise-exposed rats spent shorter time in the target quadrant and had fewer times in crossing the platform[ (7.25±2.27) s and (1.13±0.64) times] than the control group[ (15.64±3.99) s and (4.25±2.12) times] (P<0.05) . After noise exposure, hippocampal neurons of rats displayed marked nuclear hyperchromatic and pyknosis phenomenon. The noise-exposed rats had higher numbers of both microglia and astrocytes (27.00±2.65 and 43.33±5.51) in the DG area of the hippocampus relative to the control group (14.67±3.06 and 20.00±4.58) (P<0.05) . Moreover, the glial cells in the noise group had larger cell cytosol with more and thicker branches. The protein expression levels of inflammatory cytokines Cleaved-IL-1β and Cleaved-IL-18 in the hippocampus of rats in the noise group (1.55±0.19 and 1.74±0.12) were significantly higher than the control group (1.00±0.11 and 1.00±0.13) (P<0.05) . After noise exposure, the protein expression levels of AIM2, Cleaved-Caspase-1 and ASC (1.19±0.09, 1.34±0.07 and 1.14±0.01) were higher than the control group (1.00±0.07, 1.00±0.14 and 1.00±0.06) and differences between the two groups were statistically significant (P<0.05) . A significant increase in the number of cells co-localizing AIM2 with Iba-1 or GFAP in the noise group (28.67±4.04 and 40.67±5.13) compared with the control group (15.67±4.04 and 17.67±3.79) , and statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups (P

Objective: To analyze the characteristics of high-frequency average hearing loss in both ears of noise exposed workers in Tianjin in 2020, and quantitatively analyze the influencing factors of high-frequency hearing loss in both ears of workers. Methods: In March 2023, Collect and organize basic information about noise-hazardous enterprises and personal information of workers exposed to noise. Data from the Tianjin Occupational Disease and Health Hazard Factors Information Monitoring System from January 2020 to December 2020, and analyze the impact of basic information of employees, enterprise size, regional distribution, industry category, and economic type on the high-frequency average hearing loss of workers during work. Apply logistic regression to quantitatively analyze the influencing factors of abnormal high-frequency average hearing threshold of noise exposed workers. Results: The size, economic type, industry category, and regional distribution of enterprises, as well as the gender, age, length of service of workers, have an impact on the abnormal high-frequency average hearing threshold of noise exposed workers (χ(2)=733.56、3 497、27、1352.84、1197.62、2570.59、22.30、506.60, P<0.001) . Quantitative analysis using a logistic regression model showed that in the basic information of workers, noise exposed workers were male (OR=2.500, P<0.001) and aged 30-39, 40-49, and 50-59 years (OR=1.33, P<0.001; OR=1.68, P<0.001; OR=1.52, P< 0.001) , with a length of service of 4 to<10 years and≥10 years (OR=1.08, P<0.001; OR=1.615, P<0.001) being the influencing factors for high-frequency hearing loss in both ears of noise exposed workers; In terms of enterprise characteristics, medium-sized, small and micro enterprises (OR=1.12, P<0.001; OR=1.75, P<0.001; OR=2.09, P<0.001) , enterprises located in the fourth district around the city (OR=1.268, P<0.001) , and enterprises with economic types of collective economy, other economy, private economy, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan investment, shareholding system, and other industry economies (OR are all >1, P<0.001) are all factors affecting high-frequency hearing loss in noise exposed personnel. Conclusion: Noise is a common occupational hazard factor in Tianjin's enterprises, especially for workers in micro enterprises who face a high risk of hearing abnormalities. Therefore, enterprises need to strengthen the management and intervention of noise operations to prevent the occurrence of hearing loss in workers.

The etiology of pneumoconiosis is relatively clear, but the pathogenic mechanism is not fully understood, and there is no effective cure for pneumoconiosis. Clarifying the pathogenesis of pneumoconiosis and exploring relevant markers can help screen high-risk groups of dust exposure, and relevant markers can also be used as targets to intervene in the process of pulmonary fibrosis. The in-depth development of genomics, transcriptomics and proteomics has provided a new way to discover more potential markers of pneumoconiosis. In the future, the combination of multi-omics and multi-stage interactive analysis can systematically and comprehensively identify key genes (proteins) , metabolites and metabolic pathways in the occurrence and development of pneumoconiosis, build a core regulatory network, and then screen out sensitive markers related to early diagnosis and treatment of pneumoconiosis. This article summarizes the research progress of pneumoconiosis markers from the perspective of multi-omics, hoping to provide more basic data for the early prevention and diagnosis of pneumoconiosis, pathogenesis research, and therapeutic intervention.

In the future, the combination of multi-omics and multi-stage interactive analysis can systematically and comprehensively identify key genes (proteins) , metabolites and metabolic pathways in the occurrence and development of pneumoconiosis, build a core regulatory network, and then screen out sensitive markers related to early diagnosis and treatment of pneumoconiosis. This article summarizes the research progress of pneumoconiosis markers from the perspective of multi-omics, hoping to provide more basic data for the early prevention and diagnosis of pneumoconiosis, pathogenesis research, and therapeutic intervention.</p>","PeriodicalId":23958,"journal":{"name":"Zhonghua lao dong wei sheng zhi ye bing za zhi = Zhonghua laodong weisheng zhiyebing zazhi = Chinese journal of industrial hygiene and occupational diseases","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141157578","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}

Objective: To evaluate the quality and item characteristics of the Brief Job Stress Questionnaire (BJSQ) among employees in manufacturing and service industries. Methods: From December 2021 to December 2022, a total of 2077 employees from 4 manufacturing and service enterprises in Beijing were selected by the method of combining purpose sampling and convenience sampling. The Chinese version of BJSQ was used to carry out a survey on occupational stress from 57 items in 4 dimensions including job stress factors, stress response, social support factors and satisfaction. Classical test theory (CTT) was used to analyze the validity and reliability of the questionnaire. The Semejima hierarchical response model in item response theory (IRT) was used to analyze the differentiation a, difficulty coefficient b and information content of each item. Results: Among the 2077 subjects, the age M (Q(1), Q(3)) was 33 (28, 37) years old, and the working age M (Q(1), Q(3)) was 4 (2, 8) years. There were 723 (34.8%) people in manufacturing industry and 1354 (65.2%) people in service industry. Eleven common factors were extracted by exploratory factor analysis, with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 62.823%, the variance of the common factors of each entry ranging from 0.451 to 0.865, and the range of factor loading values from 0.413 to 0.825, with 5 items having cross-loadings. The results of the validation factor analysis showed that the model fit indexes of root means square error of approximation was 0.055, comparative fit index was 0.950, Tucker Lewis index was 0.948, and standardized root mean square was 0.066. Content validity results showed that the total scores of the Chinese version of the BJSQ were positively correlated with the scores of the 4 dimensions (r(s)=0.487-0.936, P<0.05) . The results of the reliability analysis showed that the Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the total questionnaire was 0.945, and the Cronbach's alpha coefficients of job stress factors, stress response and social support factors were 0.775, 0.957, and 0.830, respectively. The Spearman-Brown coefficient for the total questionnaire was 0.866, and for the 3 dimensions, it was 0.572, 0.882 and 0.772. The results of IRT analysis showed that only 1 of the 57 items had a differentiation a-value<0.30, the difficulty coefficient b-value of each item ranged from -12.02 to 11.09, of which 8 items had a difficulty coefficient that was too high, 3 items had a difficulty coefficient that was too low, and 3 items did not meet the requirements, and the average amount of information in each item ranged from 0.022 to 2.566, and there were 47 items with average amount of information>0.088 (5/57) . Conclusion: The Chinese version of BJSQ has good reliability and validity in the typical occupational groups of manufacturing and service industries in China, and most of the items have good performance, b

Objective: To investigate the current status of disease burden and its influencing factors among welder's pneumoconiosis patients, and provide scientific basis for taking targeted intervention measures. Methods: From June 2022 to June 2023, the patients with welder's pneumoconiosis in Jiangsu Province were selected from 1956 to 2020 as the research objects, and disability adjusted life years (DALY) were used as the comprehensive index to study the disease burden. The direct and indirect economic losses caused by the diseases were calculated, and the factors affecting the disease burden were discussed by multiple linear regression method. Results: A total of 974 cases of welder's pneumoconiosis were reported in Jiangsu Province, the cumulative loss of DALY was 6300.73 person-years, and the per capita loss was 6.47 person-years. Among them, the healthy life years lost due to disability (YLD) was 6156.50 person-years (97.71%) , and the healthy life years lost due to premature death (YLL) was 144.23 person-years (2.29%) . Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the main factors affecting DALY were disability grade, diagnostic age, pneumoconiosis grade and length of dust exposure (P<0.05) . The total economic loss caused by 974 welder's pneumoconiosis patients was 1831838160.18 yuan, and the per capita loss was 1880737.33 yuan. Among them, the direct economic loss was 970917563.75 yuan (53.00%) , and the indirect economic loss was 860920596.43 yuan (47.00%) . Conclusion: Welder's pneumoconiosis causes serious disease burden to patients, and at the same time causes huge economic losses to individuals and society, which seriously hinders the development of society. Taking effective control measures to prevent the incidence of welder's pneumoconiosis is the key to reduce the disease burden.
