Objective:To investigate and analyze the quality of life of occupational patients in Hangzhou and its influencing factors, so as to improve their qol.Methods:From January 2007 to June 2018, patients with diagnosed occupational diseases in Hangzhou City were randomly sampled in October 2019. The patients＇basic condition and quality of life were investigated by self-made questionnaire and SF-36, a total of 303 valid questionnaires were collected and the influencing factors were analyzed by correlation analysis and multiple linear regression.Results:The scores of physiological function, physiological function, physical pain, general health status, energy, social function, emotional function and mental health of the patients with occupational diseases in Hangzhou were lower than those of the general population in China, the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01) . The main factors affecting the score of quality of life of occupational patients are the types of occupational diseases, the level of disability and the duration of illness, the condition of suffering from other diseases, age, educational level, whether they are entitled to Work Injury Insurance, economic income, medical security and social support, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:The quality of life of the patients with occupational diseases in Hangzhou City is poor, and the corresponding measures should be established to improve the qulity of life.

Objective:To explore the application of the Short Form of Quality of Life (SF-36) scale in the investigation of quality of life of occupational disease patients.Methods:In May 2019, SF-36 scale was used to investigate the occupational disease patients diagnosed in Hangzhou. The reliability of the scale was evaluated by Cronbach's α coefficient, and the validity of the scale was evaluated by exploratory factor analysis.Results:The Cronbach's α coefficients of PF, RP, BP, GH, VT, SF, RE and MH were 0.937, 0.977, 0.870, 0.908, 0.815, 0.701, 0.967 and 0.863 respectively, and the half reliability coefficient α=0.905. The two factor statistics representing physiological and psychological aspects were 0.870, and the approximate chi square value was 1784.337 ( P<0.01) . Compared with the national norm, the scores of each dimension of quality of life of occupational disease patients were significantly lower, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01) ; Compared with the scores of each dimension of quality of life of pneumoconiosis patients, the scores of PF, RP and GH of occupational disease patients were significantly higher, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:SF-36 scale has good reliability and validity in measuring the quality of life of patients with occupational diseases, which can be used to evaluate the quality of life of patients with occupational diseases.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of hereditary diffuse leukoencephalopathy with spheroids (HDLS).Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed. The clinical data of 2 patients with genetically conformed HDLS, admitted to our hospital in August 2020 and October 2021, were collected; and a literature search was conducted in domestic and foreign databases from January 2012 to January 2022 (enrolling a total of 48 patients with HDLS caused by colony-stimulating factor-1 receptor [ CSF1R] gene mutation). The population, clinical, imaging and gene mutation characteristics of these patients were summarized and analyzed. Results:(1) In these 50 patients, 20 were male and 30 were female, with onset age of (40.72±11.27) years; 40 patients (80.0%) had been misdiagnosed. (2) The most common first symptom and sign were progressive cognitive impairment (74.0%) and progressive dementia (80.0%). The patients in the middle and old aged group (≥40 years old, n=31) had significantly higher incidences of progressive cognitive impairment and Parkinson's-like symptom, and statistically lower incidence of muscle weakness as compared with those in the youth group (<40 years old, n=19, P<0.05). (3) The highest incidence of abnormal imaging findings was white matter lesions (100.0%), followed by cerebral atrophy (84.0%), ventricular enlargement (84.0%) and corpus callosum atrophy (60.0%). DWI examination was completed in 28 patients, and all patients showed persistent limitation of diffusion (100.0%). The most affected areas of white matter lesions were around the lateral ventricles, followed by the frontal-parietal occipital lobe, and corpus callosum. The incidence of abnormal signal of central semiovale in youth group was statistically higher than that in middle and old aged group ( P<0.05). (4) A total of 36 CSF1R gene mutations or possibly pathogenic mutations were identified in 50 patients, 21 of which were novel mutations reported for the first time. Of the 47 patients whose mutations were described in detail, 8 (17.0%) and 5 (10.6%) probands carried c. 2381T>C/p. I794T and c.2345G>A/p.R782H, respectively. Conclusions:The clinical manifestations of HDLS are diverse and lack of specificity. The most common first symptom and sign are progressive cognitive impairment and progressive dementia; however, the symptom spectrum and MRI imaging changes of white matter damage are related to age. MRI follow-up and targeted gene testing help reduce misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis of HDLS.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the impact of noise exposure in metallurgical manufacturing on hearing.METHODS 245 workers exposed to noise in an enterprise and 51 administrative staff were tested for air conduction hearing threshold of pure tones at 0.5-8 kHz in both ears,and the equivalent sound level of workplace noise was measured for 8 hours.The hearing threshold of workers in different jobs was statistically analyzed.RESULTS The hearing threshold of workers exposed to noise at 0.5-8 kHz was significantly higher than that of administrative staff;hearing loss mainly occurred at 4 kHz and 6 kHz;the hearing threshold was positively correlated with working age and age,and the hearing threshold of workers over 40 years old and with working age of more than 6 years were higher than 40 dB HL at both ears at 4 kHz and 6 kHz.CONCLUSION The hearing loss of 4 kHz and 6 kHz is most obvious in noise-exposed workers,and age,working age,and noise exposure intensity were risk factors for hearing loss.It is necessary to strengthen the control of noise sources,attach importance to protective measures such as earplugs,and reduce noise exposure time.

OBJECTIVE To explore the clinical practice differences based on GBZ 49-2007 and GBZ 49-2014 diagnostic criteria for occupational noise induced hearing loss.METHODS Two hundred and sixty-five noise workers who applied for occupational noise induced hearing loss diagnosis in Hangzhou Occupational Disease Prevention and Treatment Center from January 2016 to November 2023 were selected and diagnosed according to the diagnostic criteria of GBZ 49-2007 and GBZ 49-2014 for noise induced hearing loss.RESULTS The diagnostic rate of occupational noise induced hearing loss in GBZ 49-2014 standard was 53.58%,which was significantly higher than the 42.64%in GBZ 49-2007 standard(P<0.05).The κ value of the diagnostic consistency between the GBZ 49-2014 standard and the GBZ 49-2007 standard for occupational noise induced hearing loss was 0.761,P<0.05,indicating good diagnostic consistency with a diagnostic consistency rate was 86.04%.The diagnostic rate of occupational noise induced hearing loss(GBZ 49-2007)among workers with work experience≥10 years was 59.05%,which was higher than that of workers with work experience<10 years(P<0.05).The diagnostic rate of occupational noise induced deafness in workers with work experience≥10 years(GBZ 49-2014)was 72.38%,which is higher than that of workers with work experience<10 years(P<0.05).According to the diagnosis of occupational noise induced hearing loss in GBZ 49-2007 and GBZ 49-2014,patients with work experience≥10 years had a higher severity of occupational noise induced hearing loss than those with work experience<10 years(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Compared to the GBZ 49-2007 standard,the GBZ 49-2014 standard will increase the diagnostic cases of occupational noise induced hearing loss;Under the GBZ 49-2007 and GBZ 49-2014 standards,the diagnosis and severity of occupational noise induced hearing loss are related to length of service.
