概括
用湿球球体温度 (WBGT) 测量环境热应激,显示出与台湾中部肥胖症的多种关联. 区域差异凸显了针对性公共卫生战略的必要性,以应对气候变化中的肥胖症.
科学领域:
- 环境健康 环境健康
- 公共卫生 公共卫生
- 流行病学 流行病学
背景情况:
- 全球变暖和气温上升对健康构成风险,但热应激对中部肥胖的影响尚未得到充分研究,特别是在热带/亚热带地区.
- 台湾的亚热带气候使其成为调查环境热量和肥胖率之间的联系的重要地点.
研究的目的:
- 调查湿球全球温度 (WBGT) 与台湾各地中心肥胖之间的关联.
- 在台湾内发现该协会的区域差异.
主要方法:
- 利用了120,424名台湾生物库参与者的数据.
- 使用腰围来评估中心肥胖 (女性/男性的腰围≥80/90厘米).
- 通过使用高分辨率的时空模型来获得WBGT暴露数据,用于工作时间 (上午8点至下午5点) 和中午 (11点至下午2点) 期间.
主要成果:
- 中午WBGT的1°C升高与台湾中部更高的中心肥胖率有关 (OR:1.048,p=0.009).

Obesity
1.4K
The Body Mass Index (BMI) is a numerical value derived from a person's weight and height, used to categorize individuals into weight ranges. It is calculated using the formula: weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared. Obesity is a health condition characterized by excessive accumulation of adipose tissue that poses health risks, often diagnosed with a BMI ≥ 30. This excess fat storage occurs when surplus dietary calories are converted into triglycerides and stored in...

Bias in Epidemiological Studies
1.4K
Biases can arise at various stages of research, from study design and data collection to analysis and interpretation. Recognizing and addressing these biases is essential to ensure the validity and reliability of epidemiological findings.Broadly speaking, biases in epidemiology fall into three main categories: selection bias, information bias, and confounding. A more detailed description of possible biases is:

Assessing Body Temperature - Oral
1.8K
Here are the steps to accurately measure oral temperature using an electronic thermometer:
Step 1:
Start by practicing proper hand hygiene to prevent the spread of microorganisms.
Step 2:
Take the thermometer out of the charging unit, switch it on, and wait for the ready sign.
Step 3:
Gently slide the probe cover until a click is heard. This simple action prevents cross-contamination and ensures the correct placement of the probe cover.
Step 4:
Instruct the patient to open their mouth and place...

Assessing Body Temperature - Rectal
13.3K
Rectal temperature measurement is considered the most precise method for assessing core body temperature and typically registers higher than oral temperature. For adults, the rectal thermometer should be inserted 1 to 1.5 inches into the rectum to obtain the most accurate reading.
Follow these steps for rectal temperature assessment:
Step 1: Perform hand hygiene and don clean gloves to prevent cross-infection.
Step 2: Position the patient in a side-lying position to better visualize the rectal...
