    This summary is machine-generated.

    Compressed air exposure significantly increases the risk of dysbaric osteonecrosis (DON) in tunnel workers. Early detection of DON is possible through advanced imaging techniques like CT and MRI.

    Area of Science:

    • Occupational Health
    • Radiology
    • Orthopedics

    Background:

    • Compressed air environments pose unique health risks to workers.
    • Dysbaric osteonecrosis (DON) is a potential occupational hazard for caisson and tunnel workers.
    • Understanding the prevalence and early detection of DON is crucial for worker well-being.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To assess the health impacts of compressed air exposure on tunnel workers.
    • To determine the prevalence of dysbaric osteonecrosis (DON) in caisson workers.
    • To identify reliable diagnostic indicators for early-stage DON.

    Main Methods:

    • A cohort of 128 tunnel workers was divided into exposed (n=58) and control (n=70) groups.
    • Radiographic examinations included X-ray, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of shoulders, hips, and knees.
    • Diagnosis of DON was based on national criteria for decompression sickness.

    Main Results:

    • DON was diagnosed in 34.5% of the compressed air-exposed group.
    • A statistically significant difference (p < 0.01) in skeletal cystic changes was observed between exposed and control groups.
    • CT and MRI effectively detected early DON lesions, with cystic changes on CT and abnormal MRI signals serving as diagnostic indicators.

    Conclusions:

    • Compressed air exposure is associated with a high prevalence of DON in tunnel workers.
    • Skeletal cystic changes visualized by CT are indicative of early DON.
    • Abnormal signals detected by MRI are key imaging findings for diagnosing early-stage DON.
