Independent and synergistic effects of sedentary lifestyle and obstructive sleep apnea on hyperuricemia
Introduction Hyperuricemia, a precursor to gout and a risk factor for various cardiometabolic and renal disorders, is influenced by a complex interplay of lifestyle, physiological, and environmental factors. This study aimed to investigate the independent and combined effects of a sedentary lifestyle and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) on hyperuricemia. Methods We analyzed data from 14,808 participants aged 40–80 years in the Korea National Health …
Effect of drinking, smoking, and smartphone overdependence on drug addiction among Korean adolescents
Introduction: Adolescent brain development increases vulnerability to drug addiction due to diminished impulse control and the presence of mental health disorders. Alcohol consumption, smoking, and smartphone overdependence have been individually associated with higher drug use, but their combined impact on adolescent drug addiction remains underexplored. This study examines the interaction effects of alcohol consumption, smoking, and smartphone …
Association Between Sedentary Behavior and Body Image Distortion Among Korean Adolescents Considering Sedentary Purpose
This study highlights the significant association between sedentary behavior and body image distortion in adolescents. Future research should further explore the long-term effects of sedentary behavior on the physical and mental health of adolescents
Research for association and correlation between stress at workplace and individual mental health
Background: Occupational stress negatively affects mental health and productivity. Managing worker mental health has been equated to assessing workplace stressors, although there are challenges in screening and managing the mental health of vulnerable workers. This study aimed to determine the correlation between workplace stress characteristics and two depression assessment questionnaires to guide workplaces on assessing job stress more effectiv…
Risks of Leukemia in Various Industrial Groups in Korea
It is known that occupational exposure to specific agents is associated with leukemia. However, whether the occupational risks of leukemia differ among various industrial groups remains unclear. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to elucidate the occupational risks of leukemia among different worker groups by industry. Data for a total of 11,050,398 people from the National Health Insurance System's claim data from 2007 to 2015 were analyze…
Cohort Profile
During the Vietnam War, many troops and citizen were exposed to large amounts of Agent Orange (AO), and the hazardous effects of AO are continuously being researched and reported. The Korean Vietnam War Veterans' Health Study Cohort (KOVECO) is a retrospective cohort to demonstrate the health status of the Korean Vietnam War veterans and their second-generation offsprings. The KOVECO is a collaboration of data from the Ministry of Patriots and Ve…
Status of Workers’ Health Behavior and the Association between Occupational Characteristics and Health Behavior
This study investigated differences in unhealthy lifestyle behaviors (ULBs) between workers and nonworkers and demonstrated the association of ULBs with occupational characteristics among workers. This cross-sectional study used data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 2007 to 2019. For sociodemographic data, chi-squared tests were used to analyze categorical variables. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence interva…
Association between Working Hours and Self-Rated Health
This study compared the association between working hours and self-rated health (SRH) according to sex, socioeconomic status, and working conditions. In all, 25,144 participants were selected from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES), conducted from 2010 to 2018. The risks of poor SRH, according to working hours, were investigated using multiple logistic regression. Both short and long working hours were associated…
Rate of inappropriate energy and micronutrient intake among the Korean working population
Objective: Adequate energy and nutrient intakes are important for workers who spend at least one-third of their day working. We investigated differences in these intakes among Korean workers because few studies have reported on energy or nutrient intakes, related to working conditions (long working hours, shift work and non-standard work). Design: Dietary intake was assessed using 1-d 24-h recall. Energy and nutrient intakes were evaluated using …
Cancer Incidence Among Air Transportation Industry Workers Using the National Cohort Study of Korea
Air transportation industry workers have an increased risk of leukemia compared to other occupational groups
Association between Exposure to Extreme Temperature and Injury at the Workplace
Exposure to extreme temperature is a critical occupational risk factor. This study aimed to investigate the association between exposure to extreme temperatures and injury at the workplace using data from 92,238 workers (46,175 male and 46,063 female) from the 2014 and 2017 Korean Working Condition Survey. Exposure to extremely high or low temperatures, injury experiences, and personal protective equipment (PPE) wearing behavior were investigated…
Spontaneous and repeat spontaneous abortion risk in relation to occupational characteristics among working Korean women
We found a significant association between SA, repeat SA, and occupational characteristics among working Korean women
Risk factors of suicide attempt among people with suicidal ideation in South Korea
It is important to pay attention to populations with suicidal ideation and the risk factors mentioned above. Prediction models using the determined risk factors could be useful to detect high-risk groups early for suicide attempt among people with suicidal ideation. It is necessary to develop specific action plans for these high-risk groups to prevent suicide
The association between low blood lead levels and the prevalence of prehypertension among nonhypertensive adults in Korea
OBJECTIVES: Low-level lead exposure has been associated with increases in blood pressure (BP) and impairment of the cardiovascular system. Prehypertension is not categorized as a disease currently; however, individuals with untreated prehypertension are known to be at increased risk of progression to hypertension and mortality caused by cardiovascular disease. We investigated the association between blood lead levels below the threshold for the h…
