The aim of this study was to estimate occupational exposure inhalable wood dust by country, industry, the level and type in 25 member states European Union (EU-25) for purposes hazard control, surveillance assessment health risks. National labour force statistics, a country questionnaire (in 15 states, EU-15), company survey Finland, France, Germany Spain), measurements (from Denmark, Germany, Netherlands United Kingdom) expert judgements were used generate preliminary estimates different...
In this article, we introduce a new Stata command to estimate the net survival function and cumulative hazard. The includes graphic facilities. It was designed have similar syntax sts, dedicated related functions. We present two examples illustrate use of command.
This study aimed to determine the effect of occupational safety and health (OSH) education during formal schooling on incidence workplace injuries (WIs) in young people starting their careers. We hypothesised that who had received OSH would have fewer WIs than those no education. Secondary objectives focused 'first aid at work' training conditions encountered arrival company (occupational hazard information, job task training) WI occurrence.Prospective cohort study.From 2009 2012, French...
The cardiovascular consequences of night work are increasingly well-known. Implementing effective preventive strategies, however, requires further investigation the effects exposure duration. This study sought to assess cumulative dose-effect on prevalence risk factors among current and former workers in France. We used cross-sectional data from CONSTANCES cohort design analyses 52,234 exposed or not during their working life. duration was assessed permanent, rotating workers. BMI, blood...
Introduction Geographical variation in the prevalence of multiple sclerosis (MS) is controversial. Heterogeneity important to acknowledge adapt provision care within healthcare system. We aimed investigate differences MS departments French territory. Methods estimated on October 31, 2004 21 administrative France (22% metropolitan departments) by using data sources: main health insurance systems, neurologist networks devoted and Technical Information Agency Hospitalization. used a spatial...
To assess the relationship between occupational exposure to metalworking fluids (MWFs) in steel-producing industry and bladder cancer incidence.A nested case-control study on was set up a cohort of workers from six French factories. Three controls were randomly selected for each incident case diagnosed 2006 2012. Controls matched cases age at diagnosis counter-matched surrogate measure MWFs derived job-exposure matrix. Cases (n=84) (n=251) face-to-face interviewed. Experts assessed...
We specify some conditions for the identification of a multi‐factor model with correlated residuals, uncorrelated factors and zero restrictions in factor loadings. These are derived from results Stanghellini (1997) Vicard (2000) which deal single‐factor models concentration matrix. Like these authors, we make use complementary graph residuals build on role odd cycles this graph. However, contrast to consider case where conditional dependencies expressed terms covariance matrix rather than...
Several samplers (IOM, CIP 10-I v1, ACCU-CAP, and Button) were evaluated at various wood industry companies using the CALTOOL system. The results obtained show that compared to mouth, which can be considered representative of exposure a person placed same location under experimental conditions, concentrations measured by IOM, ACCU-CAP are not significantly different (respectively, 1.12, 0.94, 0.80 1.00), Button sampler (0.86) being close sampler. Comparisons dust both closed-face cassette...
Introduction Occupation can contribute to differences in risk and stage at diagnosis of breast cancer. This study aimed determining whether occupation, along with skill level the socio-professional category, affect cancer survival (BCS) up 10 years after diagnosis. Materials methods We used registry records identify women diagnosed primary invasive western Switzerland over period 1990–2014 matched them Swiss National Cohort. The effect work-related variables on BCS was assessed using...
Manufactured nano-objects (MNO) are being increasingly used in industry, and, given their particular properties, it is therefore necessary to assess the risks linked production and use industrial settings. We describe a survey conducted France, five industries concerned with of inks, paints, plastics, raw nano materials. In 2009, questionnaire was posted each 993 French establishments these industries. Of 464 (47%) that responded, 87 indicated they were producing or using MNO at time. The...
This text transposes standard statistical estimators of the mean and its confidence intervals to field occupational noise exposure, assuming that samples are independent lognormally distributed. The hypothesis lognormality is applied values A-weighted sound exposure as defined in ISO 1999 expressed Pa2.h, which equivalent currently accepted normality continuous pressure level LAeq,T dB(A). By expressing initial data results dB(A), provides an unbiased estimator tables according sample size n...
The aim of this study was to compare the X-ray diffraction and infrared spectrophotometric patterns two samples α quartz (QUIN1 QUIN2) with that NIST SRM 1878a certified 100% crystalline. As it is known intensity diffracted absorbance per mass unit for a given type depend on its particle size, factor taken into account. To do this, different types were sampled filters using Dorr-Oliver cyclone select size. Variation in flow rate range 1.2–2.8 l/min allowed volume median diameter particles be...
This article describes two atmosphere generation systems used for the production of replicas. The first, Sputnic system, is based on air sampler developed by National Institute Occupational Health in Oslo (Norway). It to generate asbestos fibres or silica particles and allows simultaneous production, means sampling filters, up 114 second a multipurpose system that dust foams with CIP 10-R device. Twenty samples can be taken simultaneously. In total, 120 series allowed characterization...
In the field of industrial hygiene, besides necessity monitoring phosphine with direct reading apparatus to prevent accidents, there is a need for method sampling and analysing control workers' exposure. The use filters impregnated silver nitrate collect arsine, stibine in workplace air has been described literature. Having previously chosen this type filter we studied its characteristics capture. A sodium carbonate was used both as prefilter particles trap arsenic trioxide. After dissolving...
Three methods of classifying laboratories during fibre counting proficiency tests were compared. The first two are those used in France (classification according to the mean and coefficient variation results) Great Britain proportion normalized results situated within predefined limits). third is a Workplace Analysis Scheme for Proficiency (WASP) programme adapted tests. In latter case, laboratory classification based on comparing variance characterizing dispersion with reference variance,...
