[Investigation on influencing factors of blood indexes of interventional radiology workers].

Objective

To analyze the influencing factors of blood indicators indexes of interventional radiology workers, and provide a theoretical basis for radiological occupational health monitoring, radiation protection monitoring and risk assessment.

Methods

In March 2020, a total of 500 interventional radiology workers (interventional group) and 200 non-interventional radiology workers (control group) who underwent an occupational health examination in Liaoning Center for Disease Control and Prevention from 2018 to 2019 were selected as the subjects. The general information, occupation related information, blood routine, fasting blood glucose and thyroid stimulating hormone test results of the subjects were collected. The differences in the levels and abnormal detection rates of blood indexes between the two groups were compared. And the influencing factors of blood indexes of the intervention riodiology workers were analyzed.

Results

The lymphocyte count of interventional group[2.10 (1.70, 2.50) ×10(9)/L] was lower than that of control group[2.20 (1.80, 2.60) ×10(9)/L], the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05) . The white blood cell count and lymphocyte count of interventional workers in the service age≤13 years were higher than those of service age≥28 years group, and fasting blood glucose was lower than those of service age ≥28 years group (P<0.05) . The detection rate of abnormal fasting blood glucose of interventional radiology workers in the service age ≤13 years group was lower than that of the service age 14-27 years and service age ≥28 years (P<0.05) . The lymphocyte count and platelet count of interventional radiology workers in annual effective dose<0.5 mSv group was higher than that of annual effective dose≥1 mSv group (P<0.05) . The results of multi-factor linear regression analysis showed that service age, annual effective dose and female gender were the influencing factors of lymphocyte count of interventional radiology workers (b=-0.008, -0.110, -0.167, P<0.05) .

Conclusion

Long-term low-dose radiation exposure had certain influence on the lymphocyte count of interventional radiology workers. Service age, annual effective dose and gender are the influencing factors of lymphocyte count in interventional radiology workers. It should be reinforced to the radiological protection monitoring and risk assessment on interventional radiology workers.
