Published: February 2023

Objective
To characterize differences in mining jobs and tenure between contemporary (born 1930+, working primarily with modern mining technologies) and historic coal miners with progressive massive fibrosis (PMF).

Methods
We classified jobs as designated occupations (DOs) and non-DOs based on regulatory sampling requirements. Demographic, occupational characteristics, and histopathological PMF type were compared between groups.

Results
Contemporary miners (n = 33) had significantly shorter mean total (30.4 years vs 37.1 years, P = 0.0006) and underground (28.8 years vs 35.8 years, P = 0.001) mining tenure compared with historic miners (n = 289). Silica-type PMF was significantly more common among miners in non-DOs (30.1% vs 15.8%, P = 0.03) and contemporary miners (58.1% vs 15.2%, P < 0.0001).

Conclusions
Primary jobs changed over time with the introduction of modern mining technologies and likely changed exposures for workers. Elevated crystalline silica exposures are likely in non-DOs and require attention.
Measuring Presenteeism From Work Stress
Authors: Mathieu Cynthia , Gilbreath Brad 
Published: February 2023

Objective
Presenteeism can result from a variety of causes, one of which is job stress. This study examined the factor structure and validity of the Job Stress-Related Presenteeism Scale (JSRPS).

Methods
Using three organizational samples, the study aimed to determine the factor structure of the JSRPS, its relationship to a sickness presenteeism scale, and the association between the JSRPS and associated concepts.

Results
Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses supported a reliable 6-item, 2-factor model for the JSRPS. JSRPS scores were associated with higher levels of psychological distress, workplace harassment, and turnover intentions and lower levels of job satisfaction, and work engagement. The JSRPS had stronger associations with psychological distress and workplace harassment than did the Stanford Presenteeism Scale.

Conclusions
Results suggest that the JSRPS provides a valid measure of presenteeism resulting from job stress.

Authors: Nishioka Ryuichiro , Tatsuse Takashi , Sekine Michikazu , Yamada Masaaki 
Published: February 2023

Objectives
To explore differences in work performance based on the influence of sleep, work environment, and work-life balance.

Methods
The datasets for this study were obtained from the Japan Civil Servant Study, which included 3478 participants (2199 men and 1279 women).

Results
Belonging to the younger generation, high levels of support at work, fewer social contacts with friends, and a negative personality were independently associated with low work performance in both men and women. Poor sleep quality and job dissatisfaction were associated with low work performance in men but not in women. Work-to-family conflict was associated with work performance in women.

Conclusion
Interventions that target not only the overall measure but also account for sex-specific characteristics are important for improving work performance.

Published: February 2023

Objective
During the COVID-19 pandemic, teleworking became the new workplace norm, creating a new challenge for workplace communication. This study investigated the association between source-specific workplace social support and psychological distress among Japanese teleworkers and nonteleworkers.

Methods
A total of 15,045 workers were extracted from a cross-sectional web-based survey that assessed psychological distress, workplace social support from supervisors and coworkers. After grouping participants into four groups based on their positions (managers, staff members) and teleworking arrangements (teleworking, nonteleworking), multiple logistic regression analyses were performed separately.

Results
Teleworkers with less supervisor support demonstrated the highest risk of psychological distress (adjusted odds ratio = 2.55, P = 0.024).

Conclusions
Insufficient supervisor support for teleworking staff members may be a key occupational risk factor for psychological distress in the postpandemic future.

Published: February 2023

ObjectiveThis study aimed to longitudinally examine the prevalence and correlates of burnout in frontline healthcare workers (FHCWs) during COVID-19 in New York City.MethodsA prospective cohort study of 786 FHCWs at Mount Sinai Hospital was conducted during the initial COVID surge in April to May 2020 (T1) and November 2020 to January 2021 (T2) to assess factors impacting burnout.ResultsBurnout increased from 38.9% to 44.8% (P= 0.002); 222 FHCWs (28.3%) had persistent burnout, 82 (10.5%) had early burnout, and 129 (16.5%) had delayed burnout. Relative to FHCWs with no burnout (n= 350; 44.7%), those with persistent burnout reported more prepandemic burnout (relative risk [RR], 6.67), less value by supervisors (RR, 1.79), and lower optimism (RR, 0.82), whereas FHCWs with delayed burnout reported more prepandemic burnout (RR, 1.75) and caring for patients who died (RR, 3.12).ConclusionFHCW burnout may be mitigated through increasing their sense of value, support, and optimism; treating mental health symptoms; and counseling regarding workplace distress.

Authors: Martin William E. , Darcey Dennis J. , Stave Gregg M. 
Published: February 2023

ObjectiveLaboratory animal allergy (LAA) is common and preventable. This study provides a 10-year update on LAA prevention programs in the United States and the effect of COVID-19 on prevention practices.MethodsAn electronic survey was e-mailed to designated institutional officials at laboratory animal facilities identified by the National Institutes of Health Office of Laboratory Animal Welfare. Results were compared with the prior survey.ResultsA total of 141 institutions employing 58,224 laboratory animal workers responded. Results were similar to the prior survey with wide variation in practices. Medical surveillance increased (58%–71%), but N95 respirator use decreased (17%–13%). As before, only 25% of institutions knew their LAA incidence and prevalence rates. COVID-19 had a small time-limited effect on personal protective equipment use.ConclusionsUniversal use of evidence-based practices and improved medical surveillance would provide greater worker protection from LAA.

Authors: Sinclair Robert R. , Sawhney Gargi , Jones Karyn O. , Pittman Mark A. , Watson Gwendolyn Paige , Bitner Matthew 
Published: February 2023

Objective
The objective of this research was to assess the relative contribution of three resilience-related dispositional resources (trait mindfulness, core self-evaluations, and optimism) to emergency medicine physicians’ fatigue, retention, and productivity.

Methods
We surveyed emergency physicians employed by a national (US) medical staffing organization. The survey included measures of work stressors, resilience resources, job search behavior, and fatigue. We linked the survey responses to objective demographic and productivity measures from the organization’s records.

Results
A total of 371 respondents completed the survey. Multiple regression analyses demonstrated support for each of the three resilience-related resources as predictors. Relative weights analyses showed that resilience accounted for 14% and 62% of the outcome variance, whereas work demands accounted for between 32% and 56%.

Conclusions
Multiple facets of dispositional resilience are important predictors of emergency medicine physicians’ occupational health, retention, and productivity.

Authors: Duan Zhizhen , Zhou Lang , Wang Tong , Han Lei , Zhang Juan 
Published: February 2023

Objectives
The aims of the study are to investigate the survival status and its influencing factors of pneumoconiosis patients and to analyze the disease burden and its trend in Jiangsu Province.

Methods
We used the life table and Cox model to analyze the survival status. The disease burden and its temporal trend were examined using the disability-adjusted life years (DALY).

Results
The average survival time was 16.22 ± 10.11 years. First diagnosis age, first diagnosis stage, and upgrade of stages were crucial risk factors for the survival. The cumulative DALY was 154,500.83 person-years. The DALY attributed to silicosis, coal worker pneumoconiosis, and welder’s pneumoconiosis were 99,806.72 (64.60%), 35,483.21 (22.97%), and 37,85.83 (2.45%) person-years, respectively.

Conclusions
Although the disease burden of pneumoconiosis is decreasing because of the implementation of relevant health policies and improved medical standards, the prevention and control of pneumoconiosis still need greater attention.

Published: February 2023

ObjectiveOur aim was to assess the prevalence and predictors of well-being among Brazilian industry workers on returning to the physical workplace during the COVID-19 pandemic.MethodsTwo thousand two hundred forty-one participants completed an online survey between October and November 2021. Well-being was assessed with the World Health Organization Well-being Index, and the questionnaire also addressed sociodemographic and occupational characteristics and the health of workers and their contacts. Associations were estimated with logistic regression models.ResultsThe prevalence of adequate well-being was 63.15%. The predictors of poor well-being included being female, younger, working exclusively from home or on a hybrid model, having comorbid disorders, and living with someone with any comorbidity.ConclusionsThe identification of vulnerable groups with poor well-being may help organizations to direct efforts to the unmet psychological needs of these employees and develop well-being programs during this transition.

Authors: Reid Michelle , Laing James , Tumpney Matthew , Cunningham Kelley , Chaneco Aynsley , Batista Mariel , Sparer-Fine Emily 
Published: February 2023

Objective
To examine suicide deaths among working-age residents in Massachusetts and to determine industries and occupations with high numbers and rates of suicides.

Methods
The Massachusetts Violent Death Reporting System and Massachusetts death certificates were used to analyze suicide deaths from 2016 to 2019. Counts and rates were generated by demographics and industry and occupation groupings.

Results
There were 2199 working-age Massachusetts residents who died by suicide. Higher suicide rates were associated with being male, 65 years or older, White, and non-Hispanic or having military background. Suicide rates were higher among the construction industry sector and the construction and extraction occupational group compared with the average rate for all Massachusetts workers.

Conclusions
Suicide rates differed between industries and occupations, suggesting that work-related factors may play a role and should be considered when planning outreach initiatives and interventions.

Authors: Schuman Donna L. , Whitworth James , Galusha Jeanine , Carbajal Jose , Ponder Warren N. , Shahan Kathryn , Jetelina Katelyn 
Published: February 2023

Objective
This observational study aimed to determine whether attachment style predicted first responders' mental health and resilience.

Method
Data were from a treatment-seeking sample of first responders (N = 237). Each participant completed six assessments measuring attachment, resilience, generalized anxiety, depression, suicidality, and posttraumatic stress disorder.

Results
On the attachment assessment, 25.3% were categorized as secure, 19.0% as dismissive, 25.3% as preoccupied, and 30.4% as fearfully attached. As predicted, securely attached participants had the lowest scores for generalized anxiety, depression, suicidality, and posttraumatic stress disorder and the highest scores on the resiliency measure, followed by dismissive, preoccupied, and fearfully attached participants.

Limitations
These data are cross-sectional and causality cannot be inferred.

Conclusions
Results highlight the importance of the study of attachment to psychotherapy and mental health treatment with first responders.
Service-Learning in Physician Assistant Education: A Scoping Review
Authors: Oliveira Ana L. , Smith Catherine H. , Xavier Neena A. 
Published: February 2023

Introduction
Service-learning (SL) is a pedagogy that can be used in healthcare education to develop students who are better prepared to address the various social determinants of health and to provide compassionate care to the diverse populations they will serve. Yet, an assessment of the quality and scope of the SL activities used in physician assistant (PA) education is not available. The purpose of this scoping review is to review the literature and identify and summarize articles about SL courses in PA education.

Methods
We performed a scoping literature search of 4 databases (CINAHL, PubMed, Embase, and Scopus) to identify peer-reviewed journal articles about SL in PA education. Studies that did not include PA students, were not a service-learning activity (but instead an interprofessional activity, simulation, or volunteerism), or were not a full article were all excluded.

Results
Nine articles were included in this scoping review after independent evaluation by 2 investigators based on specific inclusion and exclusion criteria. The most common reason for exclusion was lack of distinct learning objectives specific to the service learning and/or a lack of a structured, guided critical reflection that helped realize and demonstrate the desired learning outcomes.

Discussion
Although service-learning is considered to be a high-impact teaching practice, it is still an underutilized tool in PA education. Training faculty in the implementation of SL to align the hands-on activity with specific course learning objectives and in the effective use of structured critical reflection can create a more impactful and authentic SL educational experience.

Authors: Lima Giscard , Shurlock Jonathan , Wang Guan , Karanikolou Antonia , Sutehall Shaun , Pitsiladis Yannis P. , D'Alessandro Angelo 
Published: February 2023

Objective:
Recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEpo) is prohibited by the World Anti-Doping Agency but remains the drug of choice for many cheating athletes wishing to evade detection using current methods. The aim of this study was to identify a robust metabolomics signature of rHuEpo using an untargeted approach in blood (plasma and serum) and urine.

Design:
Longitudinal study.

Setting:
University of Glasgow.

Participants:
Eighteen male participants regularly engaged in predominantly endurance-based activities, such as running, cycling, swimming, triathlon, and team sports, were recruited.

Interventions:
Each participant received 50 IU·kg−1 body mass of rHuEpo subcutaneously every 2 days for 4 weeks. Samples were collected at baseline, during rHuEpo administration (over 4 weeks) and after rHuEpo administration (week 7-10). The samples were analyzed using hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography mass spectrometry.

Main Outcome Measures:
Significant metabolic signatures of rHuEpo administration were identified in all biofluids tested in this study.

Results:
Regarding metabolomics data, 488 plasma metabolites, 694 serum metabolites, and 1628 urinary metabolites were identified. Reproducible signatures of rHuEpo administration across all biofluids included alterations of pyrimidine metabolism (orotate and dihydroorotate) and acyl-carnitines (palmitoyl-carnitine and elaidic carnitine), metabolic pathways that are associated with erythropoiesis or erythrocyte membrane function, respectively.

Conclusions:
Preliminary metabolic signatures of rHuEpo administration were identified. Future studies will be required to validate these encouraging results in independent cohorts and with orthogonal techniques, such as integration of our data with signatures derived from other “omics” analyses of rHuEpo administration (eg, transcriptomics).
Focused Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy for Ischial Apophysitis in Young High-Level Gymnasts
Authors: Omodani Toru , Takahashi Kenji 
Published: February 2023

Objective:
We aimed to investigate the effect and safety of extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) on ischial apophysitis (IA) in young high-level gymnasts. We hypothesized that ESWT would be safe and effective in alleviating pain.

Design:
Retrospective case series.

Setting:
Funabashi Orthopedic Hospital.

Patients:
The subjects were 18 high-level gymnasts (mean age of 13 years) with a chief complain of chronic buttock pain diagnosed with IA.

Interventions:
Ten patients received only physiotherapy (PT), whereas 8 received both PT and ESWT to the ischial tuberosity. The basic protocol for ESWT was to use an energy dose of 0.20 mJ/mm2 or less with 3000 shots per session at 4-week intervals.

Main Outcome Measures:
We investigated whether PT and ESWT relieved the pain and allowed the patient to return fully to gymnastics. Based on radiographs at the last observation, we examined whether early closure of the apophyseal line of the ischium and around hip joint on the affected side occurred.

Results:
In the PT group, pain was relieved in 2 of 10 patients. In the ESWT group, pain was relieved and full return to gymnastics was possible in all 8 patients. None of the patients showed early closure of the apophyseal line.

Conclusions:
Extracorporeal shock wave therapy can be a safe and effective treatment option for IA in young high-level gymnasts.

Published: February 2023

Objective:To explore the factors involved in athletes being ready (or not) to return to sport (RTS) after sport-related concussion (SRC).Design:Qualitative, semistructured interviews.Setting: Videoconference.Participants: Twenty-two sport-injury stakeholders involved in contact and collision sports at various levels of competition (high school, university, professional), including: formerly concussed athletes (n = 4), coaches (n = 5), athletic therapists (n = 5), physiotherapists (n = 4), nurse practitioner (n = 1), and sports medicine physicians (n = 3).Interventions:N/A.Main Outcome Measures:We included questions in the interview guide regarding factors participants believed were involved in athletes being ready (or not ready) to RTS after a concussion.Results:Participants describedphysical(concussion symptoms, return to pre-injury fitness),behavioral(changes in behavior, avoidance, malingering),psychological(individual factors, cognitive appraisals, mental health), andsocial(isolation, social support, communication, pressure) factors that they believed were involved in athletes being ready to RTS after SRC.Conclusions:The graduated RTS strategy outlined in the most recent Concussion in Sport Group consensus statement focuses on physical aspects involved in being ready to RTS, which does not address behavioral, psychological, and social factors, which were identified by participants as being related to returning to sport post-SRC. More research is needed to determine whether the additional factors outlined in this study are relevant among larger samples of athletes, coaches, and healthcare professionals.

Published: February 2023

Objective:
To describe the injury mechanisms and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in acute hamstring injuries of male soccer players using a systematic video analysis.

Design:
Descriptive case series study of consecutive acute hamstring injuries from September 2017 to January 2022.

Setting:
Two specialized sports medicine hospitals.

Participants:
Professional male soccer players aged between 18 and 40 years, referred for injury assessment within 7 days after an acute hamstring injury, with an available video footage of the injury and positive finding on MRI.

Independent Variables:
Hamstring injury mechanisms (specific scoring based on standardized models) in relation to hamstring muscle injury MRI findings.

Main Outcome Measures:
Hamstring injury mechanism (playing situation, player/opponent behavior, movement, and biomechanical body positions) and MRI injury location.

Results:
Fourteen videos of acute hamstring injuries in 13 professional male soccer players were analyzed. Three different injury mechanisms were seen: mixed-type (both sprint-related and stretch-related, 43%), stretch-type (36%), and sprint-type (21%). Most common actions during injury moments were change of direction (29%), kicking (29%), and running (21%). Most injuries occurred at high or very high horizontal speed (71%) and affected isolated proximal biceps femoris (BF) (36%). Most frequent body positions at defined injury moments were neutral trunk (43%), hip flexion 45-90 degrees (57%), and knee flexion <45 degrees (93%). Magnetic resonance imaging findings showed that 79% were isolated single-tendon injuries.

Conclusions:
According to a video analysis, most hamstring injuries in soccer occur during high-speed movements. Physicians should suspect proximal and isolated single-tendon—most often BF—hamstring injury, if represented injury mechanisms are seen during game play. In addition to sprinting and stretching, also mixed-type injury mechanisms occur.
