南非矿工有法定权利进行尸检以获得职业性肺病赔偿。这些尸体解剖也为研究和监测提供了信息。方法在矿工死亡时摘取心脏呼吸器官,并在国家职业健康研究所进行检查。我们从PATHAUT数据库中提取数据,并描述了关键的人口统计学、暴露和疾病趋势(1975-2013)。结果109101例尸检中,黑人矿工72348例(66.3%),白人矿工34794例(31.9%)。尸检从1975-1998年的3000多起下降到2013年的1118起。大多数是淘金者(74.0%)。78.6%的黑人矿工和13.2%的白人矿工在工作期间死亡。矽肺病和肺结核的总体比例在黑人矿工中分别为12.0%和13.0%,在白人矿工中分别为20.5%和2.4%。疾病随着时间的推移而增加。结论高发病率持续存在。黑人前矿工的代表性不足,这表明需要制定策略来提高劳动力派遣地区的意识和提供尸检设施。点。中华检验医学杂志,2016,29(9):357 - 357。©2016 Wiley期刊公司
BackgroundSouth African miners have a statutory right to autopsies for occupational lung disease compensation. These autopsies also provide information for research and surveillance.MethodsCardio‐respiratory organs are removed where miners die and are examined at the National Institute for Occupational Health. We extracted data from the PATHAUT database and described key demographic, exposure and disease trends (1975–2013).ResultsOf 109,101 autopsies, 72,348 (66.3%) were black, and 34,794 (31.9%) were white miners. Autopsies declined from over 3,000 (1975–1998) to 1,118 in 2013. Most were gold miners (74.0%). 78.6% black and 13.2% white miners died while in employment. Overall proportions of silicosis and pulmonary tuberculosis were 12.0% and 13.0% in black, and 20.5% and 2.4% in white miners, respectively. Disease increased over time.ConclusionsHigh levels of disease persist. Black ex‐miners are underrepresented, indicating a need for strategies to improve awareness and provision of autopsy facilities in labor‐sending areas. Am. J. Ind.
