Sleep disturbances induce proinflammatory immune responses, which might increase cardiovascular disease risk. So far the effects of acute sleep deprivation and chronic illnesses on system have been investigated. The particular impact shift work induced circadian disruption specific responses has not addressed so far.Pittsburgh-Sleep-Quality-Index (PSQI) questionnaire blood sampling was performed by 225 workers 137 daytime workers. As possible markers cytokines IL-6 TNF-alpha lymphocyte cell...
Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) due to repetitive work are common in manufacturing industries, such as the automotive industry. However, it's still unclear which MSDs of upper limb be expected industry a first aid unit well occupational precaution examinations. It is also examination method could performed effectively for practical reasons and under rehabilitation aspects. Additionally, it was discuss whether conception unspecific description has advantages or disadvantages contrast precise...
Background Passive exposure to environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) is estimated exert a major burden of disease. Currently, numerous countries have taken legal actions protect the population against ETS. Numerous studies been conducted in this field. Therefore, scientometric methods should be used analyze accumulated data since there no such approach available so far. Methods and Results A combination novel visualizing procedures were used, including density-equalizing mapping radar charting...
There are several ways to conduct a job task analysis in medical work environments including pencil-paper observations, interviews and questionnaires. However these methods implicate bias problems such as high inter-individual deviations risks of misjudgement. Computer-based observation helps reduce problems. The aim this paper is give an overview the development process computer-based instrument for real-time observations quantify tasks performed by physicians working different settings. In...
Wir untersuchten die Gültigkeit von einfachen Summenformeln zur Gefährdungsbeurteilung bei Exposition gegenüber mehreren (krebserzeugenden) Arbeitsstoffen unter der Annahme binärer Expositionen und eines deterministischen Respons. Das Umweltbundesamt organisierte ein externes Review unserer Arbeit. Die Gutachter unterstützen unsere Hauptaussage, dass keine allgemeine haben können, aber ergänzende Fragen gestellt. In diesem Nachtrag möchten wir wissenschaftliche Öffentlichkeit darüber...
Occupational physicians are very often confronted with questions as to the fitness of postural and locomotor systems, especially spinal column. medical assessment advice can be required by patients acute symptoms, at routine check-ups, persons who have problems doing certain jobs, for expert reports chronic disorders or after operations. Therefore, occupational purposes a physical examination must aim primarily investigate functions not structures radiologic evidence. The should structured...
Vermeulen et al. 2014 published a meta-regression analysis of three relevant epidemiological US studies (Steenland 1998, Garshick 2012, Silverman 2012) that estimated the association between occupational diesel engine exhaust (DEE) exposure and lung cancer mortality. The DEE was measured as cumulative to respirable elemental carbon in μg/m3-years. found statistically significant dose–response described elevated risks even at very low exposures. We performed an extended re-analysis using...
Occupational demands of educators are not very well researched. Nevertheless their work is subject to several requirements. Whether these have an effect on the ability and health status employees has also been examined. Furthermore it unclear if ownership type day care centres influence job satisfaction pedagogical staff what kind resources do exist. Previous studies were mainly based questionnaire data. Objective data does Therefore aim this investigation collect precise relating educators....
Zusammenfassung Es wurde überprüft, ob eine dreiwöchige ambulante orthopädische Reha-Maßnahme einen nachweisbaren Einfluss auf die physische Leistungsfähigkeit und Schmerzwahrnehmung von Patienten mit Erkrankungen der Lendenwirbelsäule (LWS) hat. Dazu wurden im Reha-Zentrum vorliegende Daten aus Testungen mithilfe Back Performance Scale (BPS) zu Beginn am Ende bei 60 Rehabilitanden ausgewertet. Weiterhin den einer Schmerzskala (NRS) ausgewertet, auch Unterschiede subjektiven Schmerzempfinden...
