Abstract:
Objective :To explore the spatial distribution of occupational diseases in Guangdong Province and to provide evidence for the policy development of occupational disease prevention and control.
Methods :A database of occupational disease incidence from 2009 to 2016 in Guangdong Province was built. The distribution of occupational diseases in Guangdong Province was displayed based on the geographic information system(GIS), then spatial autocorrelation analysis and trend-surface analysis were carried out to explore the clustering areas and spatial epidemic characteristics of occupational diseases in Guangdong Province.
Results :The number of cases with occupational diseases was 5 231 and was increasing year by year from 2009 to 2016 in Guangdong Province. The high-incidence areas were located in Guangzhou,Shenzhen,Foshan and Dongguan. Through global spatial autocorrelation analysis,it was found that there were spatial clustering of occupational diseases in Guangdong Province in each year(P<0.05),and the cumulative incidence was also clustered(Moran's I=0.492,P<0.05). The number of cases in Guangzhou,Shenzhen,Foshan and Dongguan had local spatial autocorrelation,and the local Moran's I values were 10.329,8.614,3.725 and 9.811,respectively(P<0.05). The results of trend surface analysis showed that the overall incidence of occupational disease had a slight increase from west to east,and the Pearl River Delta region was a high-incidence area.
Conclusion :The incidence of occupational diseases in Guangdong Province had an obvious spatial clustering,the Pearl River Delta region was a high-incidence area.
