简介：越南美甲沙龙技术人员不断暴露于与认知障碍和阿尔茨海默病有关的神经毒素。本研究探讨了越南美甲沙龙技术人员的职业暴露与认知功能和抑郁症状的关系。方法：样本包括155名现任或前任越南女性美甲师和145名对照组参与者。测量包括蒙特利尔认知评估（莫卡）和流行病学研究中心抑郁量表（CES-D）。结果如下：对照组的平均认知功能显著高于美甲技师组（平均差异= 1.2，p < 0.05）。没有观察到抑郁症的差异。多变量研究结果显示，暴露与认知功能呈负相关（β = −0.29，95% CI：−0.53，−0.05，p < 0.05）。讨论内容：美甲沙龙工作和职业暴露程度与越南美甲技师的认知功能低下有关。纵向研究可以进一步研究这一弱势群体认知能力下降和痴呆症的风险。
Introduction: Vietnamese nail salon technicians are continuously exposed to neurotoxins linked to cognitive impairments and Alzheimer’s disease. This study examined the association of occupational exposure with cognitive function and depressive symptoms among Vietnamese nail salon technicians. Methods: The sample included 155 current or former Vietnamese female nail technicians and 145 control group participants. Measures included the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). Results: Average cognitive functioning was significantly higher for the control compared to the nail technician group (mean difference = 1.2, p < 0.05). No differences were observed for depression. Multivariate findings revealed that exposure was negatively associated with cognitive functioning (β = −0.29, 95% CI: −0.53, −0.05, p < 0.05). Discussion: Nail salon work and the extent of occupational exposure were associated with lower cognitive functioning among Vietnamese nail technicians. Longitudinal research can further examine the risk for cognitive decline and dementia for this vulnerable population.
