Abstract:
{L-End}Objective To study the changes of complete blood cell count parameters and its influencing factors in patients with occupational silicosis (hereinafter referred to as "silicosis"). {L-End}Methods A total of 354 silicosis patients were selected as the research subjects using judgment sampling method. The patients were divided into stage Ⅰ, stage Ⅱ and stage Ⅲ groups according to the stage of silicosis. Based on the course of the disease, they were divided into groups of ≤3, >3-≤6, >6-≤9 and >9-≤12 years. The peripheral blood of the patients was collected for complete blood cell count analysis, and the influencing factors of complete blood cell count were analyzed by multiple linear regression model. {L-End}Results The levels of hemoglobin and the average red blood cell hemoglobin in patients with silicosis at stage Ⅱ and Ⅲ groups were lower than those at stageⅠgroup (all P<0.05). The percentage and counts of neutrophils increased in patients at stage Ⅲ group (all P<0.05), while the percentage and counts of lymphocytes decreased (all P<0.05) compared with those in stage Ⅰand Ⅱ groups. The percentage of eosinophils in patients at stage Ⅲ was lower than those at stage Ⅰ group (P<0.05). The red blood cell count in the courses of silicosis >6-9 years group was lower (P<0.05), and the percentage of neutrophils was higher, while the percentage of lymphocyte was lower in the courses of silicosis >6-9 years group and >9-12 years group (all P<0.05) compared with the courses of silicosis ≤3 years and >3-6 years groups. The mean corpuscular volume of the courses of silicosis >6-9 years group and the neutrophil count of the courses of silicosis >9-12 years group increased (all P<0.05) compared with the courses of silicosis ≤3 years group. The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that the silicosis stage and course of silicosis were influencing factors of erythrocyte count (all P<0.05), gender and age of first dust-exposure were influencing factors of hemoglobin level (all P<0.05), while age at diagnosis, duration of dust-exposure, age of first dust-exposure and comorbidities were influencing factors of neutrophil count (all P<0.05). Gender, comorbidities, smoking and silicosis stage were influencing factors of lymphocyte count (all P<0.05). {L-End}Conclusion There are differences in complete blood cell count parameters in patients with silicosis at different stages and courses of the disease. Silicosis stage, course of disease, gender, age, smoking,comorbidities, duration of dust-exposure and age of first dust-exposure were influencing factors affecting complete blood cell count in silicosis patients.
