Assessment of the effect of welding fumes on welders' cognitive failure and health-related quality of life
Introduction. This study examined whether cognitive symptoms and health-related quality of life can be affected by welding fume exposure. Method. Participants consisted of welders (n = 40) and welder assistants (n = 25) from welding units as the exposed group, and office workers (n = 44) as the non-...

Welders and welder assistants were exposed to higher concentrations of all airborne metals than office employees, except for aluminum and chromium (p < 0.05). Mean (95% confidence interval) CFQ score was higher in welders (26.42 (12.74)) compared with welder assistants (22.68 (14.37)) and the non-exposed group (21.38 (8.75)), although these differences were not statistically significant. Mean total score of the SF-36 significantly differed among the three groups (p < 0.05) and welders had the lowest score (M (SD) = 54.84 (17.88)). The relationships between total CFQ score and the measured concentration of nickel at peak work rate was significant for welders. Conclusion. Cognitive symptoms and health-related quality of life were not related to the measures of welding fume exposure and further research should be performed to find other influencing factors.</description><identifier>ISSN: 1080-3548</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 2376-9130</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1080/10803548.2016.1164499</identifier><identifier>PMID: 27093360</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>England: Taylor & Francis</publisher><subject>Adult ; Air Pollutants, Occupational - analysis ; ambient air assessment ; Cognitive Dysfunction - etiology ; cognitive failures ; health-related quality of life ; Humans ; Inhalation Exposure - adverse effects ; Male ; Metals - analysis ; Middle Aged ; Occupational Exposure - analysis ; Quality of Life ; Risk Assessment ; Welding ; welding fume</subject><ispartof>International journal of occupational safety and ergonomics, 2016-09, Vol.22 (3), p.426-432</ispartof><rights>2016 Central Institute for Labour Protection - National Research Institute (CIOP-PIB) 2016</rights><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><citedby>FETCH-LOGICAL-c432t-8e238d021709c15be0fc0281332f888a5ad4442a427cea4689cddf4aac1d93513</citedby><cites>FETCH-LOGICAL-c432t-8e238d021709c15be0fc0281332f888a5ad4442a427cea4689cddf4aac1d93513</cites></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><link.rule.ids>315,782,786,27931,27932</link.rule.ids><backlink>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27093360$$D View this record in MEDLINE/PubMed$$Hfree_for_read</backlink></links><search><creatorcontrib>Rahmani, Abdolrasoul</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Golbabaei, Farideh</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Dehghan, Somayeh Farhang</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Mazlomi, Adel</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Akbarzadeh, Arash</creatorcontrib><title>Assessment of the effect of welding fumes on welders' cognitive failure and health-related quality of life</title><title>International journal of occupational safety and ergonomics</title><addtitle>Int J Occup Saf Ergon</addtitle><description>Introduction.
