Risk Communication Concerning Welding Fumes for the Primary Preventive Care of Welding Apprentices in Southern Brazil
This study's aim was to assess the perceptions of welding apprentices concerning welding fumes being associated with respiratory and cardiovascular disorders and assess the implementation of risk communication as a primary prevention tool in the welding training process. This quasi-experimental, non-randomized study with before-and-after design was conducted with 84 welding apprentices in South...
متن کاملWelding, a risk factor of lung cancer: the ICARE study.
OBJECTIVES We investigated the relationship between lung cancer and occupational exposure to welding activity in ICARE, a population-based case-control study. METHODS Analyses were restricted to men (2276 cases, 2780 controls). Welding exposure was assessed through detailed questionnaires, including lifelong occupational history. ORs were computed using unconditional logistic regression, adju...
متن کاملToxicogenomic Approach to Risk Assessment of Welding Fumes
Exposure to welding fumes is already known to produce respiratory effects, such as pulmonary function, pneumoconiosis, and lung cancer, along with certain non-respiratory results, such as manganism [1]. However, despite a large number of publications on the pathophysiological process of welding fume exposure-induced diseases to understand the disease process in vivo and in vitro, relatively few...
متن کاملBronchial reactions to exposure to welding fumes.
OBJECTIVES To study the airway response and its mechanism to welding fumes in six welders with respiratory symptoms. METHODS Methacholine and welding challenge tests were carried out. The concentration of welding fumes during the exposure test was measured. On two subjects who developed bronchoconstricition to welding challenge, additional tests were carried out including prick, patch, and in...
متن کاملMassive hemoptysis due to welding fumes
UNLABELLED Many pulmonary problems such as lung cancer, occupational asthma, and pneumoconiosis have been described due to welding in the literature until now. This is the first case report of alveolar hemorrhage due to welding fumes presented with massive hemoptysis. We report a rare case of massive hemopthisis associated with welder's lung, with a discussion based on a review of the literatur...
