Both hyperthyroidism and overt hypothyroidism are associated with increased prevalence of metabolic syndrome and its components, while data on subclinical hypothyroidism is currently limited especially in working populations. The aim of this study was to examine the association between subclinical hypothyroidism and metabolic syndrome components in workers; and to evaluate whether there are differ...... hiện toàn bộ
A cytogenetic approach to the effects of low levels of ionizing radiation (IR) on the exposed Tunisian hospital workers
Nofer Institute of Occupational Medicine - Tập 26 - Trang 144-154 - 2013
Sana Bouraoui, Soumaya Mougou, Afef Drira, Faten Tabka, Nouha Bouali, Najib Mrizek, Hatem Elghezal, Ali Saad
The aim of this study is to assess chromosomal damage in Tunisian hospital workers occupationally exposed to low levels of ionizing radiation (IR). The cytokinesis-block micronucleus (CBMN) assay in the peripheral lymphocytes of 67 exposed workers compared to 43 controls matched for gender, age and smoking habits was used. The clastogenic/aneugenic effect of IR was evaluated using the CBMN assay i...... hiện toàn bộ

Manganese is a trace element and a cofactor of many enzymes, so it is essential for physiologic functioning, but it is also a neurotoxin at high doses. Manganism is most often caused by occupational exposure. It is manifested by a myriad of signs and symptoms ranging from the neurasthenia syndrome, such as headache and dizziness, to the Parkinson-like syndrome, depending on the blood manganese lev...... hiện toàn bộ

Subchondral carpometacarpal cysts are classic and almost pathognomonic lesions found in workers using vibrating instruments over prolonged periods of time. We present the case of a 53-year-old woman who worked for 30 years sewing shoe uppers, a task which required grasping firmly a pear-shaped handle awl and pushing it through the leather upper and the sole of the shoe, with combined flexion and s...... hiện toàn bộ
Air quality as respiratory health indicator — a critical review
Nofer Institute of Occupational Medicine - Tập 24 - Trang 241-248 - 2011
Hanns Moshammer, Peter Wallner
As part of the European Public Health project IMCA II validity and practicability of “air pollution” as a respiratory health indicator were analyzed. The definitions of air quality as an indicator proposed by the WHO project ECOEHIS and by IMCA I were compared. The public availability of the necessary data was checked through access to web-based data-bases. Practicability and interpretation of the...... hiện toàn bộ

Occupational voice disorders make the most frequently certified category of occupational diseases in Poland, making up approximately 20% of all cases. This study presents the current knowledge of the etiopathogenesis of occupational voice disorders. It stresses the importance of the evaluation of vocal loading by means of objective measurements. Furthermore, this study discusses the medico-legal a...... hiện toàn bộ
High incidence of acute leukemia in the proximity of some industrial facilities in El Bierzo, northwestern Spain
Nofer Institute of Occupational Medicine - Tập 25 - Trang 22-30 - 2012
José Antonio Rodríguez-García, Fernando Ramos
To estimate the incidence of acute leukemia (AL) in El Bierzo (BZ) and to carry out a cross-association analysis in order to suggest some etiological clues. We registered all new AL cases diagnosed 2000–2005. Annual standardized incidence rate (SIR) was calculated by the direct method. A cross-association analysis was performed by non-parametric methods and we checked the potential interaction bet...... hiện toàn bộ

Abstract
Woodsmoke marker levoglucosan: Kinetics in a self-experiment
Nofer Institute of Occupational Medicine - Tập 25 - Trang 122-125 - 2012
Hanns Moshammer, Stefan Weiss, Manfred Neuberger
Concerns on climate change are leading to the renaissance of wood burning and particulate exposures. Levoglucosan is used as a marker of woodsmoke in air and urine. Contribution of data on urinary excretion of levoglucosan, to improve biomonitoring and source apportionment of woodsmoke. 1, 3, 5, and 7 hours after5 mg of levoglucosan had been administered orally, urinary excretion was measured by H...... hiện toàn bộ
