OCCUPATIONAL DISEASE AMONG CARPENTERS

项目摘要

An epidemiological study is proposed to investigate the incidence and prevalence of occupational respiratory diseases among members of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters (UBC) union in Washington State. The major objectives of the proposed research are: 1) to integrate several existing databases (i.e. membership files, medical claims, worker's compensation, disability and pension) in order to develop a comprehensive data system for study of respiratory disorders among carpenters, 2) to develop epidemiological methods for analyses of medical claims data, 3) to analyze these integrated data with respect to the incidence and prevalence of malignant and non-malignant lung diseases among carpenters in Washington State, and 4) to conducted an asthma case-control study of carpenters for purposes of identifying possible etiologic associations with specific occupational exposures. Worker's compensation and medical claims for Washington State UBC members for 1988-1992 will be used for these studies. preliminary analyses of the medical claims data show the following number of workers with claim during 1988-1992: l) malignant lung diseases -149 cases, 2) chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases - 2796 cases and pneumoconioses - 58 cases. This number of cases should provide useful information for identification of high risk industries an/or trades. In addition to cohort analyses a case-control study will be conducted using 150 newly diagnosed cases of asthma and 450 matched controls. Data concerning respiratory symptoms and occupational exposures will be obtained for cases and controls and analyzed for possible etiological associations with occupational exposures. Data derived for carpenters will be valuable in defining respiratory hazards for other construction trades.

建议进行流行病学研究，调查发病率，职业性呼吸道疾病在各成员中的流行情况美国木匠兄弟会（UBC）联盟在华盛顿州。的本研究的主要目的是：1）整合多个现有数据库（即会员档案、医疗索赔、工人的赔偿、残疾和养恤金），以便制定一项全面的木匠呼吸系统疾病研究数据系统，2）制定流行病学方法，用于分析医疗索赔数据，3）分析这些综合数据的发病率和患病率，恶性和非恶性肺部疾病的木匠，华盛顿州，和4）进行哮喘病例对照研究，为了确定可能的病因学关联，特定职业暴露。工人赔偿和医疗 1988-1992年华盛顿州UBC成员的索赔将用于这些研究。对医疗索赔数据的初步分析显示， 1988-1992年期间提出索赔的工人人数如下：慢性阻塞性肺疾病-149例，2）慢性阻塞性肺疾病- 2796例 58例尘肺病。这一数字应能提供识别高风险行业的有用信息和/或行业. 除队列分析外，还将进行病例对照研究。使用150例新诊断的哮喘病例和450例匹配的对照关于呼吸道症状和职业接触的数据将获得病例和对照的数据，并分析可能的与职业暴露的病因学关联。数据来源于木匠将是有价值的定义呼吸危害为其他建筑行业。
