Background: Marine fishermen experience high levels of environmental and relationship stress and anxiety. The current study explored the role of stress in the relationship between neuroticism and anxiety symptoms among marine fishermen.

Materials and methods: Participants (fishermen from Tanmen in Qionghai city, Hainan Province) completed three questionnaires: the NEO-Five-Factor Inventory-Neuroticism Subscale (NEO-FFI-N); the Mental Stressor Investigation Questionnaire (MSIQ); and the Mood and Anxiety Symptoms Questionnaire-30-item-Anxious Arousal Subscale (MASQ-D30-AA) within 1 week before embarking on a fishing trip and then again within 1 week after their return to port. The data were subjected to correlational analyses and structural equation modelling.

Results: Positive correlations were found between NEO-FF-N (neuroticism) score, MSIQ score (total stress), MSIQ work-relationship score, ship environmental stress score, and MASQ score (anxiety symptoms). Regression analyses showed environmental stress had a significant moderating effect on the relationship between neuroticism and anxiety symptoms, and further analysis showed a mediating effect of work-relationship stress on the relationship between neuroticism and anxiety symptoms.

Conclusions: Marine fishermen with high environmental stress had greater anxiety symptoms than those with low environmental stress. Neuroticism in marine fishermen further affects anxiety symptoms by affecting the level of work-relationship stress.

背景:海洋渔民经历了高度的环境和关系压力和焦虑。本研究探讨压力在海洋渔民神经质与焦虑症状之间的关系中所扮演的角色。材料与方法:被试为海南省琼海市潭门渔民,完成3份问卷:neo -五因素量表-神经质量表(NEO-FFI-N);心理应激源调查问卷;和情绪与焦虑症状问卷-30项焦虑唤醒量表(MASQ-D30-AA)在开始钓鱼前一周内和返回港口后一周内再次进行。数据进行了相关分析和结构方程建模。结果:NEO-FF-N(神经质)评分、MSIQ(总压力)评分、MSIQ工作关系评分、船舶环境压力评分和MASQ(焦虑症状)评分呈显著正相关。回归分析显示环境压力对神经质与焦虑症状的关系有显著调节作用,进一步分析显示工作关系压力对神经质与焦虑症状的关系有中介作用。结论:高环境应激的渔民焦虑症状明显高于低环境应激的渔民。海洋渔民的神经质通过影响工作关系压力水平进一步影响焦虑症状。

Background: The onset of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has greatly impacted maritime telemedicine services. The aim of this study is to describe the impact of the pandemic, both quantitatively and qualitatively, by analysing the teleconsultations by doctors from the French Tele-Medical Assistance Service (TMAS).

Materials and methods: We carried out a descriptive observational study of retrospective data from the TMAS files. The main inclusion criterion for the files was a diagnosis of "influenza due to an unidentified virus". We extracted the following data: type of ship, gender, age, nationality, role on board, reason for the call and symptoms, number of calls, navigation zone, severity, medical decision, whether or not a COVID-19 test had been carried out, and treatments prescribed on board.

Results: One hundred and ninety-nine files were included of which 39 (20%) were clusters. We were able to analyse data from 384 patients. The study population comprised 376 suspected COVID-19 patients, of whom 334 (87%) were symptomatic and 42 (10.9%) asymptomatic. Eight (2.1%) patients were not thought to have COVID-19 but their call was related to the pandemic. Of the symptoms presented by the patients, fever was the most frequent (n = 196; 59%), while 129 (39%) presented a cough, 60 (18%) a headache, 41 (12%) non-specific ear, nose, throat signs, and 40 (12%) dyspnoea. Two hundred fifty-two (75%) patients stayed on board, 55 (17%) were disembarked, for 14 (4%) a ship diversion was arranged, and 13 were evacuated including 4 medical evacuations.

Conclusions: The most important problem encountered related to managing asymptomatic or pauci-symptomatic patients at sea, which was the subject of the majority of calls. The TMAS doctors played an important role in managing the pandemic by emphasising the need for social distancing and quarantine procedures at sea to limit the spread of the virus, while adapting to the sometimes difficult implementation conditions and logistics for medical decision and quarantine.

背景:2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)大流行的爆发极大地影响了海上远程医疗服务。这项研究的目的是通过分析来自法国远程医疗援助服务(TMAS)的医生的远程咨询,从数量和质量上描述大流行的影响。材料和方法:我们对TMAS档案中的回顾性资料进行了描述性观察研究。档案的主要纳入标准是诊断为“不明病毒引起的流感”。我们提取了以下数据:船舶类型、性别、年龄、国籍、船上角色、呼叫原因和症状、呼叫次数、航行区域、严重程度、医疗决定、是否进行COVID-19检测、船上治疗。结果:共纳入文献199份,其中聚类39份(占20%)。我们能够分析384名患者的数据。研究人群包括376例疑似COVID-19患者,其中有症状的334例(87%),无症状的42例(10.9%)。8例(2.1%)患者被认为没有感染COVID-19,但他们的电话与大流行有关。在患者表现的症状中,发烧是最常见的(n = 196;59%),而129例(39%)出现咳嗽,60例(18%)出现头痛,41例(12%)出现非特异性耳鼻喉体征,40例(12%)出现呼吸困难。5252例(75%)患者留在船上,55例(17%)患者下船,14例(4%)患者安排船舶改道,13例患者后送,其中4例为医疗后送。结论:在海上遇到的最重要的问题是如何处理无症状或无症状的患者,这是大多数呼叫的主题。TMAS的医生在管理大流行病方面发挥了重要作用,他们强调需要在海上保持社会距离和检疫程序,以限制病毒的传播,同时适应医疗决定和检疫有时困难的实施条件和后勤。

Background: This study examines the impact of work-related exposure on the cognitive performance of Faroese deep-sea fishers. Faroese fishing crews work long hours in demanding and noisy environments amidst highly uncertain and challenging weather conditions. These factors, together with compromised patterns of rest and sleep, are known to increase fatigue. Our aim was to study if changes could be measured in fishers' cognitive performance at the end of the trip when compared with the baseline measure at the beginning.

Materials and methods: Data was collected over 15 months (May 2017 to July 2018) from 157 fishers on 18 fishing trips which involved 202 investigative days on board. Questionnaires and six computerised cognitive tests: Simple Reaction Time, Numeric Working Memory, Corsi Blocks, Rapid Visual Information Processing, Digit Vigilance, and Card Sorting Test were used for data collection at the beginning and end of the trip. Differences between the outcomes on the two test points were analysed with one-way ANOVA comparing the performances at the beginning and end of the voyage, and two-way ANOVA to examine the interactive effect of chronotype and test occasions on the outcomes. Mixed models were used to test for the effects of predictor variables.

Results: Significant declines in cognitive performance were observed from the beginning to the end of the trip, with decreases in visuospatial memory and reaction times, and increases in cognitive lapses. Furthermore, slowing in response times was observed in the second half of the Digit Vigilance test when comparing the halves.

Conclusions: Declines in performance were observed from the start to the end of the trip. Furthermore, fishers performed significantly worse in the second half of some parted tests, and evening types seem less influenced by irregular work hours. These findings call for improving the safety of the vessels and their crew.

背景:本研究考察了与工作相关的暴露对法罗群岛深海渔民认知表现的影响。法罗群岛的渔民长时间在苛刻和嘈杂的环境中工作,同时还面临着高度不确定和具有挑战性的天气条件。众所周知,这些因素,加上不合理的休息和睡眠模式,会增加疲劳。我们的目的是研究渔民在旅行结束时的认知表现与开始时的基线测量相比较,是否可以测量变化。材料和方法:在15个月内(2017年5月至2018年7月),从157名渔民那里收集了18次钓鱼旅行的数据,涉及202天的船上调查。在旅行开始和结束时使用问卷调查和六项计算机认知测试:简单反应时间、数字工作记忆、科西积木、快速视觉信息处理、数字警觉性和卡片分类测试来收集数据。两个测试点结果之间的差异采用单因素方差分析比较航程开始和结束时的表现,并采用双向方差分析检查时型和测试场合对结果的交互影响。混合模型用于检验预测变量的影响。结果:从旅行开始到结束,认知能力显著下降,视觉空间记忆和反应时间下降,认知失误增加。此外,在比较数字警觉性测试的后半部分时,可以观察到反应时间的减慢。结论:从旅行开始到结束,表现都有所下降。此外,渔民在一些分开测试的后半段表现明显较差,而夜间类型的人似乎不太受不规律工作时间的影响。这些发现要求提高船只和船员的安全。

Self-medication could be a public health concern if done inappropriately, and additional research is required to better comprehend the population-wide nature of the problem. Seafarers are more inclined to self-medicate due to the nature of their work. We performed a rapid bibliometric analysis to determine the volume of research on self-medication habits among seafarers. Our analysis revealed a major knowledge gap regarding self-medication practices among seafarers. There is an urgent need to address this paucity of data and formulate appropriate interventions.

如果做得不当,自我药疗可能会成为一个公共卫生问题,需要进一步的研究来更好地了解这个问题的全民性质。由于海员的工作性质,他们更倾向于自我治疗。我们进行了快速文献计量分析,以确定海员自我药疗习惯的研究量。我们的分析揭示了海员自我药疗实践方面的重大知识差距。迫切需要解决这一缺乏数据的问题,并制定适当的干预措施。

Characteristics of fatal marine accidents. 致命海上事故的特点。
IF 2.2 Q3 Medicine Pub Date : 2022-01-01 DOI: 10.5603/IMH.2022.0022
Emma P DeLoughery

Background: Venturing onto the water for business or pleasure is not a risk-free activity. Despite the dangers facing crew and passengers there is little data on the characteristics of fatal accidents involving vessels in the water. The goal of this study was to review accident reports from the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) to determine characteristics of fatal marine accidents.

Materials and methods: Data was obtained from the Marine Accident Reports issued by the NTSB. Information regarding the number of people involved, fatalities and the accident itself was collected.

Results: Fifty-two accidents involving 5045 people from 1972 to 2019 were included in the study, with 468 fatalities reported. Of the fatalities, 155 (33.1%) were definitely on the vessel when they died, 49 (10.5%) were probably on the vessel, 65 (13.9%) were definitely or likely in the water, and the location of 199 (42.5%) was unknown. The most common cause of death was drowning (88, 18.8%), the most common accident cause was sinking (63.5%), and accidents most often started during nighttime hours (7pm-7am, 30, 57.7%).

Conclusions: This study found that sinking was the most common accident cause for fatal marine accidents, drowning the most common cause of death, and where fatality location was known most were on the vessel when they died. This suggests that, particularly when a ship is in the process of sinking, it is of paramount importance to ensure passengers and crew are familiar with exit routes, are able to exit the vessel, and are instructed to do so in a timely manner.

背景:为了商务或娱乐而冒险到水上并不是一项没有风险的活动。尽管船员和乘客面临着危险,但有关船只在水中发生致命事故的特征的数据很少。本研究的目的是审查美国国家运输安全委员会(NTSB)的事故报告,以确定致命海上事故的特征。材料和方法:数据来源于NTSB发布的《海上事故报告》。收集了有关涉事人数、死亡人数和事故本身的信息。结果:从1972年到2019年,共有52起事故涉及5045人,其中468人死亡。在死亡人数中,155人(33.1%)死亡时肯定在船上,49人(10.5%)可能在船上,65人(13.9%)肯定或可能在水中,199人(42.5%)位置不明。最常见的死亡原因是溺水(88,18.8%),最常见的事故原因是沉没(63.5%),事故最常发生在夜间(晚上7点至早上7点,30,57.7%)。结论:本研究发现,沉船是致命海上事故中最常见的事故原因,溺水是最常见的死亡原因,而死亡地点已知的最多的是他们死亡时在船上。这表明,特别是当一艘船正在下沉时,确保乘客和船员熟悉出口路线,能够离开船只,并得到及时的指示是至关重要的。

Background: The epidemiological and environmental security of states is the most important component for the functioning of the International Transport Corridors (ITC). The growing capacity of passenger and cargo flows increases the risk of the spread of dangerous infectious diseases in the territories of the countries on the route of the ITC. Preventing the introduction of dangerous infections by various vehicles and the activation of local natural foci are the priority in the anti-epidemic provision of the population of Ukraine.

Materials and methods: The study of the features of the functioning of border checkpoints (BCPs) for various types of transport in different regions of Ukraine made it possible to create their classification, taking into account the nature of the goods and the intensity of passenger traffic.

Results: The functioning of 204 checkpoints in 20 different localities, employing more than 29,000 specialists, was studied. When conducting a retrospective epidemiological analysis of documentation for maritime, aviation, road and rail transport for 2000-2013, non-compliance with sanitary-hygienic and anti-epidemic requirements to prevent the introduction and spread of dangerous infections and their carriers were revealed. The authors scientifically substantiated recommendations on sanitary-hygienic and anti-epidemic support of the BСP. Based on the results of a survey of 112 BCPs (54.9 ± 1.2%), taking into account the degree of epidemiological danger in the areas of their operation, indicators of the presence of rodents, blood-sucking insects and the nature of the goods transported, five epidemic zones were identified.

Conclusions: Inadequate operation of the BCP was expressed in non-compliance with sanitary and anti- -epidemic requirements. Control of the personal property of passengers and luggage was less than 30%. The analysis of the functioning of the BCPs made it possible to unify their work and identify priority areas for improvement.

背景:各国的流行病学和环境安全是国际运输走廊发挥作用的最重要组成部分。客运和货运能力的增加增加了危险传染病在国际贸易中心途经的国家领土内传播的风险。防止各种交通工具引入危险的传染病和激活当地的自然疫源地是乌克兰人口防治流行病的优先事项。材料和方法:对乌克兰不同地区各种运输的边境检查站的功能特点进行了研究,从而可以根据货物的性质和客流量的强度对其进行分类。结果:研究了20个不同地区的204个检查点的功能,雇用了29,000多名专家。在对2000-2013年海上、航空、公路和铁路运输文件进行回顾性流行病学分析时,发现不遵守卫生和抗流行病要求,以防止危险感染及其携带者的引入和传播。作者科学地证实了对BСP的卫生和防疫支持的建议。根据对112家(54.9±1.2%)营运员的调查结果,结合营运员经营区域的流行病学危险程度、啮齿动物、吸血昆虫的存在指标和运输货物的性质,确定了5个疫区。结论:BCP操作不当表现为不符合卫生防疫要求。对旅客个人财产和行李的管控不足30%。对方案协调会职能的分析使其工作得以统一,并确定需要改进的优先领域。

Background: Linked to the increase in international travel and development of insecticide resistance, a resurgence of bed bug infestation has been observed since the 2000's and become now a worldwide public health problem. Passenger ships as part of the tourism industry are traditionally infested by bed bugs, but the whole maritime world is now concerned.

Materials and methods: We conducted a short questionnaire-survey among the 22 doctors of the French seafarers' health services to assess the level of this phenomenon in the occupational maritime environment.

Results: Twenty seven per cent of the doctors reported that a patient shared to them a bed bug infestation on board. In that case, all declared that the infestation impacted the patient's life on board. Eighteen per cent responded that a shipowner had already sought their support in face of a bed bug infestation. Lastly, 27% considered that bed bug infestation is an increasing problem.

Conclusions: Bed bugs infestation on board has a major impact on the seafarers and passengers, and significant economic consequences. Preventive measures need to be implemented to limit the risks of dissemination. It is essential to inform and educate seafarers on best practice.

背景:自2000年代以来,与国际旅行的增加和杀虫剂耐药性的发展有关,已经观察到臭虫侵扰的死灰复燃,现在已成为一个全球性的公共卫生问题。客船作为旅游业的一部分,传统上受到臭虫的侵扰,但现在整个海洋世界都在关注。材料和方法:我们对法国海员卫生服务部门的22名医生进行了简短的问卷调查,以评估这一现象在海上职业环境中的程度。结果:27%的医生报告说,病人向他们分享了船上的臭虫侵扰。在那种情况下,所有人都宣称这种虫害影响了病人在船上的生活。18%的人回答说,船东已经在面对臭虫侵扰时寻求过他们的支持。最后,27%的人认为臭虫侵扰是一个日益严重的问题。结论:船上臭虫孳生对船员和旅客造成重大影响,造成重大经济后果。需要实施预防措施,以限制传播的风险。对海员进行最佳做法的宣传和教育至关重要。

Background: Follow-up of patients who had coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) proves that clinical symptoms persist for months after recovery. A complex of such persistent manifestations is defined as the post-COVID-19 syndrome. One of the criteria for post-COVID-19 syndrome may be typical changes in white blood cell count and white blood cell (WBC) differential. The aim of the work is to study the frequency of haematological changes in sailors who had the acute coronavirus infection.

Materials and methods: The retrospective study covered 30 candidate sailors aged 21 to 60 years with a history of COVID-19 and persistent changes in the WBC count and WBC differential and who did not have haematological abnormalities during the previous medical examinations.

Results: Analysis of WBC and WBC count at the long-term period after COVID-19 confirmed persistent changes in the form of neutrophilia, lymphopenia, changes in the neutrophils and lymphocytes ratio. The revealed changes in the WBC count were typical and fit into several patterns: A. Absolute leukocytosis, absolute and relative neutrophilia, relative lymphopenia; B. Relative and absolute lymphopenia, relative neutrophilia; C. Relative and absolute lymphocytosis, relative neutropenia; D. Relative lymphopenia, without other changes in WBC differential.

Conclusions: The most typical laboratory change in WBC count in patients with the past COVID-19 is relative or absolute leukopenia. Persistent changes in WBC count are not always outside of the reference range for absolute values and should be assessed by a complex of typical changes. The presence of typical changes in WBC count in a patient with the past COVID-19 requires a profound examination for the post-COVID-19 syndrome.

背景:对2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)患者的随访证实,临床症状在康复后持续数月。这些持续表现的复合体被定义为covid -19后综合征。covid -19后综合征的标准之一可能是白细胞计数和白细胞(WBC)差异的典型变化。这项工作的目的是研究急性冠状病毒感染水手血液学变化的频率。材料和方法:回顾性研究纳入30例候选水手,年龄21 ~ 60岁,有COVID-19病史,白细胞计数和白细胞鉴别值持续变化,既往体检无血液学异常。结果:分析新冠肺炎确诊后长期WBC及WBC计数中性粒细胞形态、淋巴细胞减少、中性粒细胞和淋巴细胞比例持续变化。所显示的白细胞计数变化是典型的,符合以下几种模式:A.绝对白细胞增多,绝对中性粒细胞增多和相对中性粒细胞增多,相对淋巴细胞减少;B.相对和绝对淋巴细胞减少症,相对中性粒细胞增多症;C.相对和绝对淋巴细胞增多,相对中性粒细胞减少;D.相对淋巴细胞减少,无其他白细胞差异改变。结论:既往COVID-19患者白细胞计数最典型的实验室变化是相对或绝对白细胞减少。白细胞计数的持续变化并不总是在绝对值的参考范围之外,应该通过典型变化的复合体来评估。过去感染过COVID-19的患者白细胞计数出现典型变化时,需要对COVID-19后综合征进行深入检查。
