[Analysis of new pneumoconiosis in Yantai from 2010 to 2019]
Abstract:
Objective: To analyze the characteristics of new cases of pneumoconiosis in Yantai from 2010 to 2019, and to provide scientific basis for the prevention and control of pneumoconiosis. Methods: In March 2020, 2575 new pneumoconiosis cases in Yantai City from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2019 were obtained through the "Health Hazard Information Monitoring System" platform under "China Disease Prevention and Control Information System" and patient hospital files. Excel 2007 was used to sort out the database of pneumoconiosis and analyze the epidemiological characteristics of new pneumoconiosis, including gender, age, length of service, type of work, etc. Results: From 2010 to 2019, the majority of new pneumoconiosis cases were male (2542 cases, 98.72%) , and the age of onset was 40-<60 years old (2074 cases, 80.54%) . The main age of onset was 15-<30 years (1534 cases, 59.57%) . Silicosis was the most common type of new pneumoconiosis (2313 cases, 89.83%) . There were 2262 cases (87.84%) with one stage of pneumoconiosis. The main types of work were rock driller (799 cases, 31.03%) , hauler (797 cases, 30.95%) , other mine workers (391 cases, 15.18%) . The economic type of enterprises was mainly state-owned enterprises (1156 cases, 44.89%) . The scale of enterprises mainly concentrated in large enterprises (1897 cases, 73.67%) . Conclusion: The new pneumoconiosis in Yantai City shows obvious concentration of disease and work types.It is necessary to strengthen the prevention and treatment of silicosis and the training of protection knowledge for rock drillers and transport workers.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Smoking is a primary risk factor for COPD, with over 80% of patients having a history of it. Patients typically experience progressive dyspnea or labored breathing, frequent coughing, and recurrent pulmonary infections. Many eventually succumb to respiratory failure, characterized by...
Pulmonary Tuberculosis I
Causative Organism
The primary infectious agent causing tuberculosis is Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a slow-growing, acid-fast, aerobic rod that exhibits sensitivity to heat and ultraviolet light. Instances of Mycobacterium bovis and Mycobacterium avium contributing to the development of TB infection are rare.
