Analysis on occupational health status among radiation workers in Guangdong Province in 2020
Objective To analyze the occupational health status of radiation workers in Guangdong Province.Methods A total of 8 913 radiation workers who underwent occupational medical examination(OME)in Guangdong Province Hospital for Occupational Disease Prevention and Treatment in 2020 were selected as the exposure group,and 2 024 non-radiological workers who underwent health examination in the same hospital in the same period of time were selected as the control group using convenient sampling method.The study analyzed the prevalence of abnormalities in thyroid,eye lens,blood pressure,complete blood count and micronucleus in individuals of the two groups.Results The abnormal rates of eye lens,blood pressure and complete blood count in the radiation workers in the exposure group were higher than those in the control group(23.3％vs 8.0％,18.6％vs 9.0％,18.1％vs 8.5％,all P＜0.01).However,there was no significant difference in the abnormal rates of thyroid and micronucleus in workers between these two groups(12.8％vs 11.5％,0.1％vs 0.0％,all P＞0.05).The abnormal rates of thyroid,eye lens and blood pressure in radiation workers increased with the exposure period of radiation(all P＜0.05).Conclusion Long-term exposure to low-dose ionizing radiation have certain effects on the thyroid,eye lens,and blood pressure of radiation workers,with a time-effect relationship of years of radiation work.
