To estimate productivity losses and financial costs to employers caused by cigarette smoking in the Taiwan workplace.The human capital approach was used calculate lost productivity. Assuming value of equal wage/salary rate basing calculations on workforce, average days absenteeism, rate, increased risk absenteeism among smokers obtained from earlier research, due smoker were estimated. Financial passive smoking, breaks, occupational injuries calculated.Using a conservative excess work, male...
To assess the mortality risks from injuries for smokers and ex-smokers to quantify burden of smoking injury in Taiwan.Smokers' (and ex-smokers') were compared with that non-smokers a merged cohort Taiwan. A total 64,319 male subjects followed up 12-18 years. Relative (RR) (adjusted age alcohol use) 95% confidence intervals (CI) cause specific deaths calculated using Cox proportional hazard model. also presence dose-response relations daily quantity.Alcohol use adjusted relative all (RR 1.69,...
To assess the impact of promotions on cigarette sales in Taiwan after market opened to foreign companies, and whether young smokers were targeted by these companies.Trends sales, advertising expenditure, brand preference, consumption examined for period following 1987 opening market. Tobacco industry internal documents from Legacy Documents Library University California, San Francisco, searched corporate strategies promoting youth Taiwan.Between 1995 2000, inflation adjusted expenditures all...

On basis these tests, present article reveals from a forensic anthropology angle plane human with its Study shows that there exist strict individual identity exclusiveness in relation between The regularity displacement appears skull head at different photographic positions angles. this...
Abstract Background Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is influenced by both environmental and genetic factors. Few gene studies of the Chinese population have focused on COPD. We investigated candidate genes associated with susceptibility to COPD in Han population. Methods A total 331 patients 213 control subjects were recruited for this study. Nighty-seven single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) 46 selected genotyping. Genotypes determined using multiplex polymerase chain reaction...
Abstract Background Idiopathic central precocious puberty (ICPP) reduces patient health-related quality of life (HRQoL). The impacts disease and treatment on families are also an important concern. This study aimed to assess the association between family impact HRQoL children with ICPP. Methods We conducted a case–control in Chongqing, China. A case group 134 ICPP aged 5–12 years their caregivers was recruited from children’s hospital Chongqing. total 210 gender- age-matched subjects two...
Anemia appears to be common in association with vitamin C deficiency among the inmates of a municipal relief institution studied. Therapeutic results indicate that anemia is not due lack per se, but related all probability concomitant iron deficiency.
Abstract Background Emphysematous change on computed tomography ( CT ) during the stable phase of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD is reported to correlate with prognosis. Acute exacerbation AECOPD associated a high risk mortality and poor Aims This study aims relationship between prognosis emphysematous changes an . Methods Histories were recorded, acquired for 106 patients who visited emergency department was quantified by measuring percentage low‐attenuation areas LAA %) in...
Acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) is an acute event characterized by the worsening a patient's respiratory symptoms. To best our knowledge, few studies have investigated computed tomography (CT) manifestation AECOPD. Thus, aim present study was to examine CT manifestations during In total, 40 patients with AECOPD admitted emergency department were enrolled. images obtained at time and 3‑month follow‑up paired. Clinical characteristics routine blood test...
Backgroud and objectives: Although lung attenuation distribution volume on computed tomography (CT) have been widely used in evaluating COPD interstitial disease, there are only a few studies regarding the normal range of these indices, especially Chinese subjects. We aimed to describe based CT. Methods: Subjects with function basically chest CT findings (derivation group) at Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai (from January 2010 June 2014) were included according inclusion exclusion criteria. The...
Surgeons face a substantial risk of infection because the occupational exposure to blood-borne pathogens (BBPs) from patients undergoing high-risk orthopaedic procedures. This study aimed determine seroprevalence four BBPs among joint arthroplasty in Shanghai, China. In addition, we evaluated significance pre-operative screening by calculating cost-to-benefit ratio.A retrospective observational for BBPs, including hepatitis B and C viruses (HBV HCV), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)...
To assess the magnitude of cigarette smuggling after market opened in Taiwan.Review tobacco industry documents for references to activities related Taiwan and government statistics on seizure smuggled cigarettes.The opening 1987 led an increase smuggling. Contraband cigarettes became as available legal ones, with only a small fraction (8%) being seized. Being specifically excluded from market-opening, Japan entered by setting up Swiss plant cover 10-20 times its quota exports Taiwan....
Background: Upper limb dystonia is a frequent complication of Wilson's disease (WD). It can lead to poor quality life and disability. Currently, no effective treatment for it exists. Therefore, we carried out clinical trial determine whether high frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on the primary motor cortex alleviates upper in WD patients. Methods: This study was single-center, double-blind, randomized study, included 60 patients with from research base Hefei,...
Objective To express the increased risk from smoking in terms of 'blood pressure' so that hypertensive smokers are motivated into quitting. Methods Mortality risks were compared with nonsmokers a large worker cohort Taiwan (n = 23 755 17-year follow-up) for all-cause and cardiovascular diseases. The blood pressure equivalence was then identified by difference mortality between nonsmokers. Results Some interaction hypertension found to be synergistic. When co-existed, outcome [relative (RR)...
