Non-communicable diseases among subcontract and primary workers involved in decontamination after the fukushima daiichi nuclear power plant accident: an observational study.

OBJECTIVE: Evidence on the population-level burden of major non-communicable diseases (NCDs) among Fukushima decontamination workers is limited, and it remains unclear whether subcontracted employment, a potential marker of employment-related vulnerability, is associated with NCD prevalence and health risk awareness. We therefore compared the prevalence of NCDs by employment status. METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional study using health checkup data from 2,790 workers (2011-2017). Data concerning hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and dyslipidemia were evaluated, along with the workers' sel…

Социально-экономическое воздействие первоначальной высокоэффективной и умеренно-эффективной терапии при множественном склерозе: воздействие на принадлежность к рынку труда.

Two-year outcomes of treatment for methamphetamine use.

While evaluation research supports the general effectiveness of substance abuse treatment, there is not a comprehensive literature on treatment effectiveness for methamphetamine (MA) use. The authors consider three outcome measures--MA use, criminal activity, and employment--compared across three periods: 24-months pretreatment, during treatment, and 24-months post-treatment. Data are from an intensive natural history interview conducted two to three years after treatment for 349 randomly selected admissions to treatment for MA abuse in a large publicly-funded county treatment system.

Case-control study of bladder cancer in New Jersey. I. Occupational exposures in white males.

The occupational bladder cancer risk for New Jersey white males was estimated with the use of both industry-job title-based and exposure-based analyses of data from 658 incident cases and 1,258 general population controls. The overall bladder cancer risk attributable to occupational exposures was estimated as 20-22%. A wide variety of employment categories and exposures contributed to this risk. Odds ratios were significantly high for employment as garage and gas station workers and food counter workers and/or cooks and for exposure to leather, rubber, paint, printing ink, and other organic co…

Relationships between headache frequency, disability, and disability-related unemployment among adults with migraine.

Association between socioeconomic background and cancer: An ecological study using cancer registry and various community socioeconomic status indicators in Kanagawa, Japan.

Information on the association between socioeconomic status (SES) and cancer is useful for policy-based cancer control. However, few studies have investigated the association between each community SES indicator and cancer. Therefore, here, we investigated the relationship between community land price, neighborhood income, education level, employment rate, and morbidity and mortality rates for lung, stomach, colorectal, liver, and breast cancers. We obtained cancer patient data from the Kanagawa Cancer Registry and SES indicator data from public databases from 2000 to 2016. We classified the d…

Screening Out Neurodiversity.

Autistic adults suffer from an alarmingly high and increasing unemployment rate. Many companies use pre-employment personality screening tests. These filters likely have disparate impacts on neurodivergent individuals, exacerbating this social problem. This situation gives rise to a bind. On the one hand, the tests disproportionately harm a vulnerable group in society. On the other, employers think that personality test scores are predictors of job performance and have a right to use personality traits in their decisions. It is difficult to say whether these negative disparate impacts are a ca…

Women's workplace transitions in saudi arabia following the driving reform: An ordered logit analysis.

BACKGROUND: The removal of the driving ban for women in Saudi Arabia in 2018 represented a landmark socio-economic reform under Vision 2030, with important implications for women's mobility and career trajectories. However, limited empirical evidence exists on the relationship between this reform and women's employment-related mobility, particularly workplace transitions, using applied modelling approaches and multi-level analytical frameworks. AIM: This study applies an ordered logit modelling approach to examine the association between women's driving rights and employment-related mobility,…

Aging with disability in the workplace.

Aging with disabilities, such as multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, muscular dystrophy, and postpolio syndrome, can lead to barriers to participation, including employment barriers. Many individuals develop strategies for overcoming these barriers that may become less successful as they experience more secondary conditions concomitant with the aging process. Rehabilitation professionals can help to overcome barriers to workplace participation and should work with clients to enhance employment outcomes.

[Effect of psychopharmacotherapy on the course of forced insulin-coma treatment of patients with paranoid schizophrenia].

The course of forced insulin-coma therapy in cases of preliminary employment of psychotropic drugs (mainly derivatives of phenothiazine or leponex) may be attended by variable forms of deviations including serious complications whereas they are not encountered in cases of treatment with haloperidol and pharmacologically similar long-acting drugs. These findings justify the employment, when necessary, of the above drugs in combination with forced insulin-coma therapy.

Depression, perceived disability and unemployment are associated with reduced life satisfaction in anorexia nervosa.
