Abstract:
Occupational polyneuropathy of the upper extremities from the effects of physical overload in the Russian Federation is a common occupational disease that leads to a long-term decrease in the occupational capacity of patients. But at the same time, the current regulatory documents do not contain any detailed recommendations for the examination of professional suitability in patients with this disease. The aim of the study is to substantiate the ways of improving expert approaches to determining the professional suitability of patients with occupational polyneuropathy caused by physical overloa

Abstract:
AbstractEntrapment syndromes of the upper limb are common neuro-muscular-skeletal pathology in musician instrumentists. From this group of morbid entities, the most prevalent worldwide is carpal tunnel syndrome closely followed by the cubital tunnel syndrome and de Quervain stenosing tenosynovitis. Due to their distinctive etiopathogenic correlation with exposure to specific occupational factors linked to instrument interpretation and professional environment, these diseases raise a medical challenge and constitute a socioeconomic and professional burden with legal branchings and implications

Introduction. The article presents the results of a study of working conditions and the health status of patients with occupational polyneuropathy (PNP) of the upper limbs. Such a clinical and hygienic assessment of people with occupational PNP contributes to the optimal examination and treatment of patients with the preliminary diagnosis who are referred to occupational pathology centers.Material and methods. The study included 236 patients of two main occupations (painters-plasterers and miners): 113 women and 123 men. Results. The average age of patients at the time of the examination was:

Abstract Objective Soldiers’ lower limbs and feet are frequently affected by overload- and overuse-related injuries. In order to prevent or limit the incidence of these injuries, the use of foot orthoses is often recommended. The aim of this study is to assess the effects of shock-absorbing insoles on in-shoe plantar pressure magnitude and distribution in a group of professional infantry soldiers wearing military boots during standard indoor military training.

Chronic exposure to low levels of mercury is involved in the development of motor neuron diseases (MND). Genetic alterations may have a crucial role in the onset and progression. We presented a case of a TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1)-mutated 54-year-old male worker who developed a MND due to chronic mercury exposure at work. He was employed in a chlor-alkali plant in Central Italy. After two years of employment he had acute mercury intoxication with suggestive neurological symptoms and a high urinary level of the metal. Through years, many episodes of intoxication occurred, but he continued to

Abstract:
Lipoatrophy is perhaps the most visibly recognisable component of antiretroviral-therapy-associated lipodystrophy due to the rarity of this form of body composition change in the general population. In this respect, it is apparent that lipoatrophy represents a form of drug toxicity specifically involving the subcutaneous fat tissue, resulting in pathological fat loss that preferentially affects the limbs and face. It is now clear that the choice and duration of nucleoside analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) therapy (stavudine > zidovudine) is the dominant risk factor for clinica

Abstract:
The purpose of this chapter is to analyze the physical aerobic work in terms of the metabolic expenditure and compare it with the recommended boundaries of energy found in literature, proposing an alternative to the potential work overload through a compensatory equation introduced in the standard time of the workstation. To support the study, information considering the estimated metabolic expenditure in workers was applied to a novel procedure to reduce the metabolic demand of the task according to age and gender. Results of the study indicated that women older than 30 years exceeded the energy limits from moderate to very heavy load activities, and men older than 40 years exceeded the energy limits in heavy and very heavy workloads. The proposal of compensatory equation statistically reduced the energy loads below the recommended limits of energy. The aerobic workload is a sensitive factor for age and gender groups and can be potential risks for developing cardiovascular diseases as well as some musculoskeletal disorders.
