对35名与工作相关的多重化学敏感性患者进行了研究,以了解疾病的发生和发展。受试者是从职业健康诊所的病人中挑选出来的。如果个人符合多化学敏感性的七点病例定义,并且如果症状的出现与工作场所暴露有关,则被确定为受试者。在63%的受试者中,三次职业接触溶剂、室内空气质量差和重塑与多种化学敏感性的发生有关。在最常报告的症状中,神经系统紊乱的症状位居榜首。暴露和症状的共性表明,多种化学敏感性代表着一个不同的诊断类别。即使对病因学的了解不完全,也有可能限制与工作相关的多重化学敏感性的发生。
Thirty-five people with work-related Multiple Chemical Sensitivities were studied to learn about the onset and progression of illness. The subjects were selected from patients at an occupational health clinic. Individuals were identified as subjects if they fulfilled a seven-point case definition for Multiple Chemical Sensitivities and if onset of symptoms was related to workplace exposures. Three occupational exposures to solvents, poor indoor-air quality, and remodeling were associated with onset of Multiple Chemical Sensitivities in 63% of the subjects. Symptoms indicative of a nervous-system disorder topped the list of the most frequently reported symptoms. Commonalities in exposures and symptoms suggest that Multiple Chemical Sensitivities represents a distinct diagnostic category. Even with an incomplete understanding of etiology, it may be possible to limit the onset of work-related Multiple Chemical Sensitivities.
