研究背景：目前关于非创伤性下腰痛（LBP）的全球负担的信息还很少，而这一负担可归因于身体和心理社会职业压力源的影响。15岁及以上从事经济活动人口的地理分区域参考组为专业/行政工作者;其他风险类别为低风险、神职人员和销售人员;中度，经营者（生产工人）和服务;和高，farmers.Results全球范围内，37%的LBP归因于职业，两个地区之间的变化。男性的归因比例高于女性，这是因为男性在劳动力市场中的参与率较高，并且从事的职业都是重体力劳动或全身振动。工作相关的LBP估计会导致818，000残疾调整生命年lost annually.Conclusions职业暴露于人体工程学的压力源代表了一个实质性的Speci源可预防的背痛。需要对儿童进行科学研究，以量化全球因童工而造成的疾病负担。J.Ind.Med.48：459-469，2005.

Background There is little information about the global burden of non-traumatic low back pain (LBP) attributable to the effects of physical and psychosocial occupational stressors.Methods Based on a review of the epidemiological evidence, occupation-specific relative risks we're used to compute attributable proportions by age, gender, and geographical sub-region for the economically active population aged 15 and older The reference group was professional/administrative workers; other risk categories were Low, clerical-and sales; Moderate, operators (production workers) and service; and High, farmers.Results Worldwide, 37% of LBP was attributed to occupation, with twofold variation across regions. The attributable propo rtion was higher for men than women, because of higher participation in the labor force and in occupations with heavy lifting or whole-body vibration. Work-related LBP was estimated to cause 818,000 disability-adjusted life years lost annually.Conclusions Occupational exposures to ergonomic stressors represent a substantial Speci the source of preventable back pain. fic research on-children is needed to quantify global burden of disease due to child labor Am.
