Evaluation of Bayesian Maximum Entropy Data Fusion Approaches to Estimate Styrene, Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene, and Xylenes and to Inform Epidemiological Analyses in the US Gulf States.

Abbott, Nora A. ;

Semone, Lucie

January 2025 | Environmental Science & Technology, 2025, v. 59, no. 1

The Gulf States are home to industries emitting styrene, benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes (SBTEX). Presently, adverse health effects of ambient SBTEX exposure in highly polluted regions, such as the Gulf States, must be evaluated. Epidemiologists, however, are limited by inadequate estimates of ambient SBTEX. Using Bayesian Maximum Entro ...

AB - The Gulf States are home to industries emitting styrene, benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes (SBTEX). Presently, adverse health effects of ambient SBTEX exposure in highly polluted regions, such as the Gulf States, must be evaluated. Epidemiologists, however, are limited by inadequate estimates of ambient SBTEX. Using Bayesian Maximum Entropy, SBTEX estimation methods of varying resource intensity were evaluated, including simple kriging (least intense), incorporation of observational and emissions data trends (moderately intense), and data fusion of observed and Comprehensive Air quality Model with extensions (CAMx) data (most intense). Generally, as resource intensity increased, so did SBTEX estimation performance, where SBTEX Spearman AB - values increased by 0.48 on average from the least to most intense methods. Data fusion of observed and CAMx data was identified as the best ambient SBTEX estimation method in the Gulf States. Exposure estimates revealed that Gulf States residences within commuting distance of high industrial activity experienced 1.64 times higher 97.5th percentile daily exposures to SBTEX on average than those living in less industrialized areas, which could contribute to total occupational and ambient exposure disparities. Furthermore, ambient benzene exposure was greater than the acceptable one-in-a-million excess cancer risk threshold for 75% of estimated residence locations in the Gulf States.

AB - The current study examines how atypical age-for-grade (i.e., being old- or young-for-grade) is associated with various types of interpersonal violence (e.g., physical fighting, school-based and electronic bullying victimization, and being threatened or injured with a weapon at school) among a nationally representative sample of U.S. high school students and explores these associations by sex. Data were from 21,892 students in 9th to 11th grades in the 2017 and 2019 National Youth Risk Behavior Survey. Weighted logistic regression models examined associations between age-for-grade categories and various types of interpersonal violence with peers, with stratified models exploring differences by sex. Results showed that, compared to their age-normative peers, students who were young-for-grade were more likely to report physical fighting, being threatened or injured with a weapon at school, and school-based and electronic bullying victimization. Students who were old-for-grade were more likely to report physical fighting than their age-normative peers. These associations differed for boys and girls, where being young-for-grade was more strongly associated with interpersonal violence for boys than for girls. Old-for-grade girls were more likely to report physical fighting than their age-normative peers, whereas young-for-grade girls were more likely to report being threatened or injured with a weapon at school. Findings from the current study may be explained by differences in physical, social, and emotional development in youth who are young-for-grade or old-for-grade compared to their age-normative peers. Results can inform school-level policies when identifying youth for grade retention or acceleration and may have implications for school-based interventions to prevent interpersonal violence between peers.

AB - Private sector and CDC contracted vaccine cost data (2001-2023) were collected from the CDC Vaccine Price List and converted to US$2023 to adjust for inflation. Trends in inflation-adjusted costs were described, and the annual percent changes in costs were calculated for each vaccine. AB - Changes in cost varied by vaccine. The average inflation-adjusted private sector costs increased by 0.9 % (IQR: -0.4 %-2.6 %) and 1.4 % (IQR: -0.4 %-3.2 %) annually among pediatric and adult vaccines, respectively, while CDC contracted costs increased by 0.9 % (IQR: 0.2 %-1.2 %) and 1.0 % (IQR: -0.8 %-2.1 %) annually among pediatric and adult vaccines, respectively. AB - Inflation-adjusted vaccine costs increased on average since 2001, highlighting limitations of constant cost assumptions. These findings can inform cost-effectiveness analyses of multi-year vaccination programs and policies.

Exposure to e-cig aerosols can lead to the release of exosomes and metabolites into the bloodstream, potentially affecting mitochondrial physiology across the body, leading to chronic inflammatory diseases. In this study we assessed the effects of e-cig use by young healthy human subjects on the circulating exosome profile and markers of cell stress, and also defined the effects of e-cig user plasma on mitochondrial function in endothelial cells (EA. Hy 926) and epithelial cells (A549) via adoptive transfer. E-cig users had altered plasma exosome profiles, with significantly increased levels of cell free mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), protein carbonyls, and 4-HNE relative to non-users. Plasma from e-cig users decreased maximal mitochondrial respiration and spare capacity of cells, while also increasing metabolic stress, as evidenced by changes in mitochondrial phenotype from basal to stressed in both endothelial and epithelial cells, which was corroborated by electron microscopy demonstrating structural changes in mitochondria. Mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels significantly increased in e-cig plasma-subjected cells. Overall, we identified alterations in plasma exosome profiles and increased markers of mitochondrial stress in e-cig users and evidence that circulating factors within plasma from e-cig users drives metabolic stress in endothelial and epithelial cells. Our results imply that e-cig use adversely affects mitochondrial function, leading to stress and potentially chronic inflammation across the body.

While daily oral HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) can effectively prevent HIV, its use is low among Black women. The acceptability of and perceived intention to use emerging PrEP products among young Black women in the southern US are not well understood. Non-oral PrEP alternatives could address challenges to PrEP uptake and reduce health disparities. We conducted virtual semi-structured interviews with Black women aged 18-34 in Atlanta, GA; Baton Rouge, LA; and Jackson, MS, to explore their perspectives on three emerging PrEP products: a long-acting injection, a subdermal implant, and a dual-purpose contraception and HIV prevention intravaginal ring. Seventy-five interviews were conducted from January to October 2021 and analyzed using inductive thematic analysis with NVivo software. Most participants were open to using medication to prevent HIV. The intravaginal ring was the most preferred, primarily due to its dual-purpose function, although it was also frequently rejected. The long-acting injection was the second most preferred and least rejected, perceived as the least invasive. The skin implant was the least preferred and most rejected, viewed as the most invasive. Our findings highlight the need for multiple PrEP options to meet individual preferences. Detailed descriptions, instructions, and experiential learning methods are crucial for choosing non-oral PrEP modalities. Practitioners should address questions and offer peer-based learning opportunities. Designing and promoting PrEP strategies for young Black women should involve close consultation with these consumers.

AU - Wirth, Oliver AB - Violence against nurses and other healthcare workers is a significant and escalating concern, impeding the provision of safe and effective healthcare services. A majority of nurses experience some kind of violence, including physical and nonphysical assaults during their careers. The consequences of workplace violence extend beyond individual trauma, leading to increased burnout, turnover, and significant financial costs for healthcare systems. Training programs focused on workplace violence prevention (WVP) have become ubiquitous, with elements like situational threat assessment, de-escalation techniques, and physical skills. Studies show that experiential components, such as role play, enhance the effectiveness of these trainings. Virtual Reality (VR) offers a promising solution by providing immersive, interactive training environments that enhance decision-making, physical coordination, and team dynamics. In this article we discuss how VR simulations can replicate real-world settings, allowing healthcare workers to practice and master violence prevention and management skills in a controlled, safe environment. We also describe how VR is scalable and cost-effective, enabling widespread adoption within and across organizations with minimal logistical challenges. Integrating VR into WVP training programs could significantly improve training outcomes, reduce the need for physical and chemical restraints, and ultimately enhance the overall safety and quality of healthcare services.

We estimated vaccine effectiveness (VE) in the United States against mild-to-moderate medically attended influenza illness in the 2023-2024 season. AB - We enrolled outpatients aged ≥8 months with acute respiratory illness in 7 states. Respiratory specimens were tested for influenza type/subtype by reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction. Influenza VE was estimated with a test-negative design comparing odds of testing positive for influenza among vaccinated versus unvaccinated participants. We estimated VE by virus subtype/lineage and A(H1N1)pdm09 genetic subclades. AB - Among 6629 enrolled patients, 1780 (27%) tested positive for influenza, including 806 with A(H1N1)pdm09, 567 with B/Victoria, and 328 with A(H3N2). VE against any influenza illness was 44% (95% confidence interval, 36%-51%): 29% (15%-41%) against influenza A(H1N1)pdm09, 74% (65%-81%) against B/Victoria, and 30% (8%-47%) against A(H3N2). Statistically significant protection against any influenza was found for all age groups except adults aged 50-64 years. Lack of protection in this age group was specific to influenza A-associated illness. We observed differences in VE by birth cohort and A(H1N1)pdm09 virus genetic subclade. AB - Vaccination reduced outpatient medically attended influenza overall by 44% and provided protection overall against circulating influenza A and B viruses. Serologic studies would help inform differences observed by age groups.

Alcohol use during pregnancy can result in miscarriage, stillbirth, preterm birth, and a range of lifelong behavioral, intellectual, and physical disabilities in the child. Limited research has examined the relationship between ACEs and alcohol use in pregnancy; available studies might not reflect current trends in this relationship. AB - Using 2019-2023 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System data from 41 U.S. jurisdictions, the prevalence of self-reported current alcohol use among pregnant persons aged 18-49 years (N = 2371) was estimated by ACEs and selected characteristics. We calculated unadjusted and adjusted prevalence ratios (aPR) for the relationship between ACEs and alcohol use during pregnancy. AB - The prevalence of current alcohol use was 16.2 % (95 % CI = 11.5-20.9) among pregnant persons who reported experiencing four or more ACEs, and 8.6 % (95 % CI = 5.7-11.5) among those who reported no ACEs. When adjusting for sociodemographic characteristics, pregnant persons who reported four or more ACEs were more likely to report current alcohol use compared to those who reported no ACEs (aPR = 1.8, 95 % CI = 1.1-2.9). Individually, pregnant persons who experienced emotional abuse (aPR = 1.9, 95 % CI = 1.3-2.7) and witnessed intimate partner violence (aPR = 1.6, 95 % CI = 1.1-2.4) were more likely to use alcohol during pregnancy compared to pregnant persons who did not report experiencing these ACEs. AB - Higher ACE exposure was associated with alcohol use during pregnancy. Steps can be taken to mitigate their potential harms. Clinical and community-level interventions can address ACEs, which might reduce alcohol use during pregnancy.

It not only ensures consistency across various data levels but also accounts for demographic structure that drives varying cancer risks. The 2016-2020 cancer incidence data from the Utah Cancer Registry is used to validate our approach. The method yields results with high precision and consistency across the full urban-rural continuum, and significantly outperforms several machine-learning models such as Random Forest and Extreme Gradient Boosting.

AB - Norovirus is the leading cause of acute gastroenteritis (AGE) globally. Few longitudinal studies have assessed norovirus-associated AGE incidence across age groups in community settings in Latin America. During April 2015-April 2019, active surveillance for AGE among community members of all ages was conducted through household visits two to three times per week in San Jeronimo, Cusco, Peru. An asymptomatic control household was selected for every fifth AGE case. Stool specimens were collected from AGE cases, asymptomatic household members, and control household members, and they were tested for norovirus using real-time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction. Data on illness characteristics were collected from AGE cases during a 15-day follow-up period. Annual means of 247 households and 1,555 participants were enrolled during each April-March surveillance year, accounting for 4,176 person-years (PY) of observation. Of 1,099 AGE events reported, 1,014 stool specimens were tested, and 186 (18%) were norovirus positive. Norovirus AGE incidence was 4.4/100 PY (95% CI: 3.9-5.1); incidence was highest among those younger than 2 years old (60.9/100 PY; 95% CI: 46.8-79.4). Among 672 stool specimens from asymptomatic controls, 56 (8%) tested positive for norovirus. Odds of norovirus detection were significantly higher among cases compared with controls (odds ratio: 2.2; 95% CI: 1.6-3.1). Age-stratified norovirus incidence in this periurban community aligns with previously published estimates and was highest among those younger than 2 years old. Establishing baseline norovirus incidence in specific communities is crucial to identify target populations and assess effectiveness of future interventions, such as vaccines.

Depending on the variables available, clinical datasets can be used to conduct a wide variety of health services research (HSR) including observational cohort studies, comparative effectiveness research (CER), and economic evaluations. In the case of clinical data sources for which prospective data collection can be centrally coordinated, they can also be used to conduct pragmatic clinical trials (e.g., ACS National Surgical Quality Improvement Program [NSQIP],3 Abdominal Core Health Quality Collaborative [ACHQC]).4 In this manuscript, we describe the strengths and weaknesses of clinical sources of "big data."

April 2025 | The Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 2025, v. 44, no. 4

We assessed severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 seroprevalence on residual blood samples for pediatric COVID-19 surveillance: 2263 samples were collected during routine outpatient visits (<18 years, April 2020-August 2021). Seroprevalence increased over time, coinciding with or preceding virus circulation in the community and with or preceding pediatric severe COVID-19 hospitalization peaks. Residual blood sample seroprevalence may be a useful surveillance tool in future outbreaks.

AB - The National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program (NBCCEDP) provides access to timely breast and cervical cancer screening and diagnostic services to women who have low incomes and are uninsured or underinsured. Documenting the number of women eligible and the proportion of eligible women who receive NBCCEDP-funded services is important for identifying opportunities to increase screening and diagnostic services among those who would not otherwise have access. AB - Using the Census Bureau's Small Area Health Insurance Estimates data, we estimated the number of women who met the NBCCEDP eligibility criteria based on age, income, and insurance status. We used these estimates along with the number of women served by the NBCCEDP to calculate the percent of women served by race/ethnicity and state. We calculated the percent of eligible women who are up to date with screening using the 2019 National Health Interview Survey. AB - The NBCCEDP served 15.0% of women ages 40-64 eligible for breast cancer services in 2018-2019 and 5.6% of women ages 21-64 eligible for cervical cancer services in 2018-2020. The NBCCEDP served 13.5% of women ages 40-64 eligible for breast cancer services in 2020-2021 and 5.9% of women ages 21-64 eligible for cervical cancer services in 2019-2021. The percent of women ages 40-64 who received breast cancer services declined by 1.5 percentage points between 2018-2019 and 2020-2021. The percent of women ages 21-64 who received cervical cancer services increased by 0.3 percentage points between 2018-2020 and 2019-2021. The percent of eligible women served varied among states. The state interquartile ranges of the percent of women served were 12.3-27.7% for breast cancer services in 2018-2019 and 3.9-14.7% for cervical cancer services in 2018-2020. Among women eligible for the NBCCEDP, 61.4% are not up to date with breast cancer screening and 40.6% are not up to date with cervical cancer screening. AB - There is wide variation between states in the share of eligible women served for breast and cervical cancer screening services. We found that both the number and the percentage of eligible women who received NBCCEDP breast cancer services declined during a period that overlapped with the COVID-19 pandemic. A large proportion of eligible women did not receive breast or cervical cancer screening.

Young adults with HIV have poorer health outcomes-including not being retained in care, antiretroviral nonadherence, and not being virally suppressed-than other persons with HIV. AB - Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Medical Monitoring Project data collected June 2018 through May 2022. AB - We compared demographic characteristics, social determinants of health, and mental health between persons aged 18-24 years with HIV versus persons aged ≥25 years with HIV. Among those aged 18-24 years, we analyzed total and unmet needs for ancillary services, defined as those that support care engagement, viral suppression, and overall health and well-being among people with HIV. AB - Persons aged 18-24 years were more likely to have a household income <100% of the federal poverty level (48% vs. 39%), and experience unstable housing or homelessness (37% vs. 18%) or hunger/food insecurity (29% vs. 18%) than those aged ≥25 years. Persons aged 18-24 years had higher median HIV stigma scores (40 vs. 29) and were more likely to experience symptoms of generalized anxiety disorder (21% vs. 15%) than those aged ≥25 years. Of persons aged 18-24 years, 96% had a need for ≥1 ancillary service, of whom 56% had ≥1 unmet need; unmet needs were highest for subsistence services (53%) and non-HIV medical services (41%). AB - Addressing unmet needs for subsistence and non-HIV medical services could help reduce disparities in social determinants of health and mental health that drive inequities in health outcomes among persons with HIV aged 18-24 years.

AB - Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) poses an occupational risk for poultry workers, responders, and others in contact with infected birds. The objective of this analysis was to describe HPAI surveillance methods and outcomes, and highlight the challenges, successes, and lessons learned during the Minnesota Department of Health's (MDH's) public health response to HPAI outbreaks in Minnesota poultry flocks in the years 2015 and 2022-2023. AB - During both outbreaks, MDH staff attempted to contact all potentially exposed people and conduct a standardized interview. People were considered exposed and at risk if they had entered a barn with poultry on any HPAI test-positive premises. With their consent, exposed persons were entered into illness monitoring until 10 days from their last exposure. In 2015, MDH monitored the health of poultry workers only. In the 2022-2023 response, MDH monitored the health of poultry workers, backyard flock owners, responders, and private contract workers. In 2022-2023, interview responses were entered into a REDCap (Research Electronic Data Capture) database in real time, which automatically entered the person into monitoring if they consented. Through REDCap, they received an automated email with a unique link to a short survey asking about any symptom development. Where appropriate, interview responses from poultry workers collected in 2015 were compared to interview responses from poultry workers collected in 2022-2023. AB - From March 3 to June 5, 2015, MDH epidemiologists interviewed and evaluated 375 (86%) of 435 poultry workers from 110 HPAI-infected flocks. From March 25, 2022 through December 31, 2023, MDH epidemiologists interviewed and evaluated 649 (65%) of 992 poultry workers, responders, contractors, and backyard flock owners associated with 151 HPAI-infected flocks. Among poultry workers, self-reported personal protective equipment (PPE) usage declined significantly from 2015 to 2022-2023 (full PPE usage 51.8% vs. 23.9%, AB - < .01). AB - MDH's long standing relationships with animal health officials and the poultry industry resulted in strong poultry worker participation rates in surveillance efforts during HPAI outbreaks in 2015 and 2022-2023. Self-reported PPE usage was low, particularly in 2022-2023. Improvements in PPE accessibility and technology are needed to protect workers and responders in the on-going HPAI outbreak.

Balanced RP production optimizes protein synthesis while minimizing energy costs, but its impact on mitochondrial functionality remains unclear. Here, we investigated haploinsufficiency for RP genes (rps-10, rpl-5, rpl-33, and rps-23) in Caenorhabditis elegans and corresponding reductions in human lymphoblast cells. Significant mitochondrial morphological differences, upregulation of glutathione transferases, and SKN-1-dependent oxidative stress resistance were observed across mutants. Loss of a Datasingle rps-10 copy reduced mitochondrial activity, energy levels, and oxygen consumption, mirrored by similar reductions in mitochondrial activity and energy levels in lymphoblast cells with 50% lower RPS10 transcripts. Both systems exhibited altered translation efficiency (TE) of mitochondrial electron transport chain components, suggesting a conserved mechanism to adjust mitochondrial protein synthesis under ribosomal stress. Finally, mitochondrial membrane and cytosolic RPs showed significant RNA and TE covariation in lymphoblastoid cells, highlighting the interplay between protein synthesis machinery and mitochondrial energy production.

In the gut, E.cig vaping promotes inflammation and gut leakiness. Further, E.cig vaping increases tumorigenesis in oral and lung epithelial cells by inducing mutations and suppressing host DNA repair enzymes. It is well known that cigarette (cig) smoking increases the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). To date, it is unknown whether E.cig vaping impacts CRC development. A mouse model of human familial adenomatous polyposis (CPC-APC) was utilized wherein a mutation in the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene, CDX2-Cre-APC AB - , leads to the development of colon adenomas within 11-16 weeks. Mice were exposed to air (controls), E.cig vaping, cig, or both (dual exposure). After 4 weeks of 2 h exposures per day (1 h of each for dual exposures), the colon was collected and assessed for polyp number and pathology scores by microscopy. Expression of inflammatory cytokines and cancer stem cell markers were quantified. DNA damage such as double-strand DNA breaks was evaluated by immunofluorescence, western blot, and gene-specific long amplicon qPCR. DNA repair enzyme levels (NEIL-2, NEIL-1, NTH1, and OGG1) were quantified by western blot. Proliferation markers were assessed by RT-qPCR and ELISA. CPC-APC mice exposed to E.cig, cig, and dual exposure developed a higher number of polyps compared to controls. Inflammatory proteins, DNA damage, and cancer stemness markers were higher in E-cig, cig, and dual-exposed mice as well. DNA damage was found to be associated with the suppression of DNA glycosylases, particularly with NEIL-2 and NTH1. E.cig and dual exposure both stimulated cancer cell stem markers (CD44, Lgr-5, DCLK1, and Ki67). The effect of E.cigs on polyp formation and CRC development was less than that of cigs, while dual exposure was more tumorigenic than either of the inhalants alone. E.cig vaping promotes CRC by stimulating inflammatory pathways, mediating DNA damage, and upregulating transcription of cancer stem cell markers. Critically, combining E.cig vaping with cig smoking leads to higher levels of tumorigenesis. Thus, while the chemical composition of these two inhalants, E.cigs and cigs, is highly disparate, they both drive the development of cancer and when combined, a highly common pattern of use, they can have additive or synergistic effects.

Export RIS Citation Information. TY - Journal Article AU - Peterson, Alexis AU - Thomas, Karen AU - Kegler, Scott AB - This manuscript describes traumatic brain injury (TBI)-related mortality in the United States during 2021, by geography, sociodemographic characteristics, mechanism of injury, and injury intent. AB - Multivariable modeling of TBI mortality was performed to assess the simultaneous effect of multiple factors (geographic region, sex, race and ethnicity, and age) included in the model. Authors analyzed multiple-cause-of-death data from the National Vital Statistics System and included records when an International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10) underlying cause of death injury code, and a TBI-related ICD-10 diagnosis code were both listed. AB - During 2021, there were 69,473 TBI-related deaths. Rates were highest among older adults, males, and non-Hispanic American Indian/Alaska Native persons. A large proportion of all TBI-related deaths were attributed to unintentional falls and suicides. Model-based rates of TBI mortality revealed a divergent pattern with increasing rates by age group, while rate ratios simultaneously declined with age among specific racial/ethnic groups when compared with non-Hispanic White persons. AB - Findings indicate unintentional falls and suicides remain a common cause of fatal TBI and specific groups are disproportionally affected by such injuries. Health care providers can play a role by assessing patients at increased risk for TBI and providing referrals for care and culturally tailored interventions when warranted.

AB - This study aimed to evaluate the utility of electronic health record (EHR) diagnosis codes for monitoring SARS-CoV-2 infections among nursing home residents. AB - A retrospective cohort study design was used to analyze data collected from nursing homes operating under the tradename Signature Healthcare between January 2022 and June 2023. AB - Data from 31,136 nursing home residents across 76 facilities in Kentucky, Tennessee, Indiana, Ohio, North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, and Virginia were included. AB - Resident demographics, diagnosis codes associated with clinical diagnoses (including COVID-19), and SARS-CoV-2 testing information were collected from the EHR and supplemental testing data sources. We described the rates of infection and the clinical characteristics of residents with incident-positive SARS-CoV-2 tests and new-onset COVID-19 diagnoses. Positive predictive values (PPVs) of COVID-19 diagnosis codes were calculated for residents stratified by whether a resident was continuously present in a facility for ±3 days from the diagnosis onset date listed in EHRs, using positive SARS-CoV-2 tests to confirm infection. AB - A total of 4876 incident-positive SARS-CoV-2 tests and 6346 new-onset COVID-19 diagnoses were recorded during the study period. Weekly rates of new-onset diagnoses were significantly higher than positive test rates, although trends followed similar trajectories. Among residents continuously present in the nursing home ±3 days from the diagnosis onset date, the PPV of COVID-19 diagnosis codes was high (3395 of 3685 = 92%; 95% CI, 91%-93%). The PPV among this group significantly varied by study quarter (P < .001). The PPV was substantially lower for 2661 diagnoses among residents not continuously present in the nursing home (24%; 95% CI, 22%-26%). AB - This study demonstrates the utility of diagnosis codes for assessment of COVID-19 epidemiology and trends when testing data are unavailable for residents during their stay in a nursing home. Future research should explore strategies to evaluate the utility of diagnosis codes at admission and discharge to nursing homes to enhance surveillance efforts.

AB - This study aimed to assess how knee savers (KSs) and knee pads (KPs) alleviate risks of knee musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) among roofers during various phases of shingle installation. These phases encompass (1) reaching for shingles, (2) placing shingles, (3) grabbing a nail gun, (4) moving to the first nailing position, (5) nailing shingles, (6) replacing the nail gun, and (7) returning to an upright position. AB - In a laboratory setting, nine male participants simulated the shingle installation task on a slope-adjustable roof platform (0°, 15°, and 30° slopes) under four intervention conditions: no intervention (NO); with KPs only (KP); with KSs only (KS); and with both KPs and KSs (BO). Knee flexion, abduction, adduction, and internal/external rotations were measured to assess intervention impact through statistical analysis. AB - Phase 5 (nailing shingles), one of the riskiest phases, saw reduced knee rotations, with BO and KP interventions being the most effective. Phase 6 (replacing the nail gun) exhibited notable reductions in all knee rotations, primarily due to BO intervention. Significant improvements in certain knee angles for other phases were noted, particularly with BO intervention. AB - BO and KP can lower knee strain by minimizing extreme knee postures and thereby reducing the risk of MSDs during the installation of shingles, especially at critical periods and on steeper slopes. This study highlights the importance of applying focused ergonomic techniques in the roofing sector to improve workers' musculoskeletal health.
