This study aims to describe the health characteristics of rotating shift mining workers that may be related to a worse course scenario for COVID-19, according to literature data.
Is a cross-sectional from three studies with 1478 shift workers. Social, demographic, clinical, and biochemical variables were analyzed. Risk factors for COVID-19 analyzed: hyperglycemia, altered blood pressure, dyslipidemia, hypovitaminosis D, obesity, presence of pre-existing cardiovascular diseases, and smokers.
Evaluating the grouped risk factors for an unfavorable evolution of COVID-19 most workers (91.0%) presented at least one risk factor.
With coronavirus in pandemic circulation, we noticed that mineworkers are in a vulnerable position. Their exposure to occupational risk factors, to the shift system, which directly affects sleep and negatively influences immunity, added to the conditions of favorable transmissibility by the flow of people from the mines leads us to believe in their greater susceptibility to acquiring the most serious forms of the disease.
根据文献数据，本研究旨在描述轮班采矿工人可能与COVID-19更严重病程相关的健康特征。
这是一项对三项研究中1478名轮班工人进行的横断面研究。分析了社会、人口统计学、临床和生化变量。分析了COVID-19的危险因素：高血糖、血压异常、血脂异常、维生素D缺乏、肥胖、既往心血管疾病的存在以及吸烟者。
评估COVID-19不利病程的综合危险因素时，大多数工人（91.0%）至少存在一种危险因素。
随着冠状病毒在全球大流行传播，我们注意到矿工处于脆弱地位。他们暴露于职业危险因素、轮班制度，这直接影响睡眠并对免疫力产生负面影响，再加上矿井人员流动导致的有利传播条件，使我们相信他们更容易感染最严重形式的疾病。
