Many coal-based sponge iron plant workers have poor health-related quality of life in general, and specifically a poor respiratory health status. However, the relationship between their health-related quality of life and respiratory health status is unknown.
This study investigated the relationship between health-related quality of life, measured using the EuroQol-5D (EQ5D), and respiratory health status, measured using the St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ), among coal-based sponge iron plant workers in Barjora, India.
A cross-sectional study was conducted among coal-based sponge iron plant workers in Barjora, and complete data were available on 252 participants. Spearman's rank correlation coefficients were reported to show the strength of relationship between health-related quality of life and respiratory health status.
Significant correlations were found between all EQ5D dimensions/visual analogue scale (VAS) and all SGRQ scores except between EQ5D-VAS and SGRQ-activity. A range of correlations was found. They were moderate between EQ5D-anxiety/depression and SGRQ-symptom, EQ5D-VAS and SGRQ-symptom, and EQ5D-anxiety/depression and SGRQ-total, but weak between all the other factors.
总体而言，许多以煤为基础的海绵铁厂工人的健康相关生活质量较差，尤其是呼吸健康状况不佳。然而，他们的健康相关生活质量与呼吸健康状况之间的关系尚不清楚。
本研究调查了印度巴尔乔拉以煤为基础的海绵铁厂工人中，使用欧洲五维健康量表（EQ5D）测量的健康相关生活质量与使用圣乔治呼吸问卷（SGRQ）测量的呼吸健康状况之间的关系。
对巴尔乔拉以煤为基础的海绵铁厂工人进行了一项横断面研究，共有252名参与者提供了完整数据。报告了斯皮尔曼等级相关系数，以显示健康相关生活质量与呼吸健康状况之间的关系强度。
除EQ5D视觉模拟量表（VAS）与SGRQ-活动维度外，在所有EQ5D维度/VAS与所有SGRQ评分之间均发现显著相关性。发现了一系列相关性。EQ5D-焦虑/抑郁与SGRQ-症状、EQ5D-VAS与SGRQ-症状以及EQ5D-焦虑/抑郁与SGRQ-总分之间的相关性为中等，但其他所有因素之间的相关性较弱。
