Abstract:
The objective of the present study is to examine the association between musculoskeletal disorders, common mental disorders, and work-related stress among the Jat farmers of Haryana. A cross-sectional study on 634 (217 males and 294 females) Jat farmers. A Nordic musculoskeletal disorders questionnaire was used to assess the prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders. Perceived stress scale (PSS)-10, Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD)-7, and Beck depression inventory (BDI) were used to assess stress, anxiety, and depression, respectively. James and Lily Farm's stress inventory was used to assess farm-related stress. Descriptive data (number and percentage), chi-square and Man-Whitney U test, and Binary logistic regression were tested using SPSS software. Of all the common mental disorders, severe anxiety was found to have the highest association with the development of MSDs, and work overload stress was the farm-related stress that posed the highest association with the development of MSDs.

Bone deposition is also affected by the levels of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone that promote osteoblast activity and bone matrix synthesis. When the level of these hormones decreases due to aging, it causes a reduction in bone deposition. As a result, bone resorption by osteoclasts...

Erythrocyte disorders can be broadly categorized into two main types: anemic and polycythemic conditions.
A low oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood due to the loss, lower production, or destruction of erythrocytes is termed anemia. Hemorrhagic anemia, for example, occurs when bleeding from an external wound or internal ulcer reduces erythrocyte counts.
