There are several studies on inguinal hernias that give some clues about the association between this type of hernia and certain risk factors. This association was suspected long ago but had not been demonstrated. The present study tries to correlate the origin of inguinal hernias and the physical effort of the subjects in accordance with their work activity. The results of this study show that physical effort, as a risk factor, is closely related to the appearance of inguinal hernias. A person whose work involves lifting or other strenuous exertion has a higher risk than those whose jobs are less strenuous (p less than 0.05). This conclusion was reached after taking into account not only the weight lifted but also the number of years in this activity.
有几项关于腹股沟疝的研究提供了一些线索，揭示了这种类型的疝与某些风险因素之间的关联。这种关联早在很久以前就被怀疑，但一直未得到证实。本研究试图根据受试者的工作活动，将腹股沟疝的成因与他们的体力劳动联系起来。这项研究的结果表明，作为一种风险因素，体力劳动与腹股沟疝的出现密切相关。工作涉及搬运或其他繁重体力劳动的人比工作强度较小的人患腹股沟疝的风险更高（p小于0.05）。这一结论是在不仅考虑了搬运重量，还考虑了从事该活动的年限之后得出的。
