The objective of the study was to describe the characteristics of agriculture and forestry related injury cases admitted to an Emergency Department (ED), and to asses factors related to injury severity and hospital admission. Retrospective analysis of ED case records in Teaching Hospital No 1 in Lublin, from January 2004 to December 2005 were utilized. Inclusion criteria: patient >14 years old, with agriculture and forestry related injuries. Univariate and bivariate descriptive analyses and multiple logistic regressions were performed. 3791 cases were included, 63.1% males, 53.3% cases younger than 30 years and 47.1% of the patients sustained injuries related to machines or falls. After adjusting for age, sex and the presence of multiple injuries, animal related injuries, followed by machine related injuries and falls, were at higher risk of a more severe injury (OR: 1.77, 1.61 and 1.50, respectively). This groups also showed a higher likelihood of hospital admission (OR: 2.03, 192 and 2.00, respectively). Patients attended to in the ED during night hours (OR: 2.06) were also at a higher risk of hospitalization. It was concluded that animal related injuries, agriculture machine operators, and falls, besides accounting for two thirds of analyzed cases, are the mechanism of injury with a greater risk of a more severe injury and higher likelihood of a hospitalization.
The objective of the present study was to determine the prevalence of brucellosis in household animals of Mirpur, Azad Kashmir due to its geographic importance. A total of 360 blood samples of cattle, buffaloes, sheep and goats were initially screened through Rose Bengal Plate test (RBPT) and then positive samples were subjected to Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) for confirmation and quantification of antibody titers. Molecular confirmation of serologically positive samples was performed by real time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). RBPT and ELISA showed a total of 8.6% and 6.87% positive samples respectively. The species wise seropositivity by RBPT was greater in cattle followed by buffaloes, goats and sheep. Similarly ELISA showed more seropositivity in cattle than buffaloes, while sheep and goats were negative for brucellosis by ELISA. RT-PCR revealed 100% samples positive for Brucella abortus by species specific PCR. This study revealed the presence of Brucella abortus in Mirpur for the first time. Since brucellosis is listed in transboundary diseases, its presence in this geographically important region could be a potential threat for neighboring countries.
The impact of the Gdańsk Phosphatic Fertilizer Plant “Fosfory” on citizens living near the plant was examined. Al, As, Au, Br, Ca, Cl, Cu, Dy, I, In, K, La, Mg, Mn, Mo, Na, S, Sb, Sm, U, V, Zn were determined by instrumental neutron activation analysis (IN AA) in hair and toenail clippings collected from 22 persons living in the neighborhood surrounding the plant and from 11 people from the control district. Essential differences in concentrations of elements for the citizens and the control group were evaluated using a non-parametric Mann-Whitney U-test. Significant differences between citizens of the factory neighborhood and the control group were found, for instance, for Mg, Sb, S and V, but it is hard to define if the factory impact exists, and whether it is the basis for these differences. The study was also undertaken to indicate a correlation between hair and nail element content and differences between concentrations of these elements considering sex.
Możliwość wczesnego wykrywania skutków toksycznego oddziaływania na nerki substancji chemicznych w miejscu pracy jest wciąż przedmiotem badań. W przedstawionej pracy do oceny funkcji nerek wybrano białka niskocząsteczkowe: RBP i ß2M, enzymy: NAG, AAP i GGT oraz izoformy tych enzymów. Badania przeprowadzono u 64 pracowników Zakładu Produkcji Substancji Żywiczych. Uzyskane wyniki potwierdzają przydatność oznaczania izoenzymii i białek niskocząsteczkowych w ujawnieniu dyskretnych zmian w nerkach jeszcze w fazie odwracalnej.
