    Dermatitis in bulb growers (1993)

    Notes: A damaged skin forms a health hazard in flower-bulb growers as it enables higher permeation rates For pesticides than normal skin. Therefore, an investigation was performed into the skin condition of 103 bulb growers and 49 controls. Contact dermatitis of the hands was of the same order (11 and 10%) in both groups. However, minor signs of dermatitis were seen more often in bulb growers (30 versus 8%, p〈0.05). Most growers had contact with narcissus sap during the investigation. This irritant sap, as well as many other skin contacts with irritants such as hyacinth dust and pesticides, seemed to be responsible for many skin complaints. Contact serialization was suspected in 19 growers and 3 controls. Patch tests showed that contact sensitization existed to pesticides in probably 10, and to flower-bulb extracts in 4 growers. Reactions to propachlor were not regarded as very reliable as the test concentration seemed to be marginally irritant. There were only a few allergic reactions to narcissus (3) and tulip (2) and none to hyacinth. This investigation showed that minor irritant contact dermatitis was frequent in bulb growers, and indicated that contact sensitization to pesticides and bulbs seemed to be a less frequent but important cause of dermatitis.

    Ascertainment of hand dermatitis using a symptom-based questionnaire; applicability in an industrial population (2000)
    Copenhagen : Munksgaard International Publishers

    Notes: In this study, the applicability of a symptom-based questionnaire on hand dermatitis was assessed in a population of rubber workers. The questionnaire was previously validated in a study among nurses. 224 subjects employed in 9 different companies completed a questionnaire on skin complaints. Subsequently, 202 workers attended the physical examination of the skin by a dermatologist. The ascertainment of skin complaints according to the questionnaire was compared to the medical evaluation. The 2 different diagnostic tools used for assessing dermatitis resulted in dissimilar estimates of the prevalence of active hand dermatitis, ranging from 6.9% to 38.1% of all workers. Using the medical evaluation as ‘gold standard’ we observed a moderate sensitivity and specificity (respectively 71.4%; 95% CI: 47.7–95.1 and 76.1%; 95% CI: 70.0 – 82.2), a low positive predictive value (18.2%; 95% CI: 8.0 –28.4) and a high negative predictive value (97.3%; 95% CI: 94.7 –99.9) for the classification based on the self-administered questionnaire. When evaluated against ‘first symptoms of dermatitis’ the sensitivity decreased, while the specificity remained almost the same. The deviant findings between the present and the original validation study of the same questionnaire among nurses hamper its applicability in populations with different occupations. Therefore, if questionnaires are to be used, validity studies have to be carried out to evaluate differences in perception of skin diseases between different (occupational) populations.

    Guidelines for measurement of cutaneous blood flow by laser Doppler flowmetry (1994)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd

    ISSN: 1600-0536

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: The report reviews individual-related variables (age, sex. race, anatomical site), intra- and inter-individual variation (temporal, physical and mental activity, food and drugs), and environment-related variables (air convection, temperature). Technical variation, instrument validation including a standard reactive hyperemia experiment, and a standard operating procedure are discussed and included in the guidelines.
