摘要:

AbstractMany of today's jobs involve repetitive tasks, often resulting in mechanical trauma to the skin. Trauma from pressure, pounding, friction, vibration, and penetration of foreign materials produce a great variety of skin lesions. Mechanical insults contribute directly or indirectly to a number of distinctive problems that are work related, viz, infections, contact dermatitis, occupational skin stigmata, reactions to unabsorbable materials, vibration effects, dermatoses among athletes, the Koebner phenomenon in palmar psoriasis, pressure urticaria, and cutaneous neoplasms arising in burns and scars.

摘要:

AbstractThe nails are useful “tools” in many occupations, but because of their exposed position are vulnerable to mechanical and chemical traumas. This review deals with the common injuries and disorders of the nails in the workplace. Information is given regarding the occupations in which damage to nails is most likely to oc

摘要:

AbstractThis paper summarizes the findings of a NIOSH reported entitled “The Chronic Effects of Repeated Mechanical Trauma to the Skin: A Description of the Problem in the Workplace” (the Trauma Report). Medical literature and U.S. health statistics (population surveys and occupational health reports) were reviewed to determine the long‐range impact of repeated mechanical trauma sustained in the workplace. Trauma was rarely recognized as contributing to dermatological disorders. Conventional sources of information were found to be inadequate for precise estimation of costs. A minimal estimate of the annual cost of cutaneous disorders resulting from repeated mechanical trauma to the skin is $15 mi

摘要:

AbstractJuvenile plantar dermatosis (JPD) is a skin disease found mainly in children between the ages of 3 and 14 years old. External factors having a role in the development of the disease include: mechanical trauma, occlusive footwear (shoes and socks), and perhaps the seasons of the year. Data on gender, seasonal patterns, and listing of atopy are presented for 80 consecutive cases of JPD.

摘要:

AbstractUrticarial responses in skin may be elicited in different ways, viz, stroking (dermographism), after sustained pressure (delayed pressure urticaria), and after vibration (vibratory angio‐oedema). Pressure may localise lesions of chronic idiopathic urticaria. Trauma may exacerbate hereditary angio‐oedema. The extent of the morbidity caused by trauma‐induced urticaria among workers is un

摘要:

AbstractA moderate degree of friction is unavoidable in everday contact between man's skin and his environment. However, excessive friction and other forms of microtrauma can cause various dermatoses as well as lesions of hair and nails. This paper illustrates that microtraumata significantly influence many skin disorders, including those of occupational origin.

摘要:

AbstractPatch tests with the standard series of chemical allergens were performed on 8,230 patients having various dermatoses. The frequency of contact sensitization among categories of dermatoses varied markedly. While only 21% of persons whose diagnosis was occupational contact dermatitis reacted allergically to at least one chemical, reactions were observed in 70% of those whose skin had been damaged by mechanical traumas. Cuts, wounds, and abrasions incurred on the job, while not very serious injuries per se, should be regarded as having greater clinical importance insofar as they increase the likelihood of contact sensitization to allergens.

摘要:

AbstractIn human volunteers, firm pressure was applied to deformable plastic chambers containing (1) chemical irritants, (2) glass fibers, and (3) selected allergens to which the subjects were sensitive.Pressure variably intensified irritant dermatitis and strikingly enhanced fiberglass dermatitis. Pressure did not influence allergic contact dermatitis.Pressure is one of several mechanical factors that can aggravate nonallergic contact dermatitis.
