职业噪声水平、心理困扰与围绝经期女工生殖衰老的关联:相关路径与交互模式
Associations of Occupational Noise Levels, Psychological Distress, and Reproductive Aging Among Perimenopausal Female Workers: Correlational Pathways and Interaction Patterns
摘要
该横断面研究纳入1030名≥40岁围绝经期女工(737名噪声暴露、293名对照),测量8小时等效声级并用DASS评估心理困扰,以Kupperman指数、早绝经和自报POI为生殖衰老结局。贝叶斯网络显示噪声与围绝经期综合征存在直接相关,并可通过心理困扰间接关联围绝经期综合征和POI;噪声与心理困扰对围绝经期综合征和早绝经呈相加协同,GAM仅证实围绝经期综合征存在交互。提示噪声与心理困扰联合影响生殖衰老。
原文摘要
OBJECTIVE: Occupational noise exposure and psychological distress are significant occupational health risks faced by working women, both of which may affect reproductive health. This study aimed to investigate the correlational pathways and interaction patterns linking occupational noise exposure levels, psychological distress, and reproductive aging among perimenopausal female workers. METHODS: Of the 5463 female workers screened, 1030 eligible workers (age: ≥40 years; 737 noise-exposed and 293 controls) were analyzed. Individual noise exposure, such as 8-h equivalent sound level (LA eq,8h), was first measured, followed by the assessment of psychological distress using the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale. Three reproductive aging outcomes-perimenopausal syndrome (measured by the Kupperman Index), early menopause, and self-reported premature ovarian insufficiency (POI)-were recorded using a structured questionnaire. Finally, Bayesian network models explored the correlational pathways, with a generalized additive model (GAM) used to model multiplicative interaction associations. RESULTS: The prevalence rates of perimenopausal syndrome, early menopause, and self-reported POI were 37.77%, 21.26%, and 4.95%, respectively. Bayesian network analysis identified statistical direct correlations between the noise exposure levels and perimenopausal syndrome, as well as statistical indirect correlations between noise exposure levels and perimenopausal syndrome and self-reported POI via psychological distress. Furthermore, additive synergistic associations were detected between the noise exposure levels and psychological distress for perimenopausal syndrome (synergy index [SI] = 2.53, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.30-12.53) and early menopause (SI = 2.48, 95% CI: 1.28-12.18). The GAM confirmed a significant interaction only for perimenopausal syndrome, with a relative excess risk due to interaction of 1.10 (95% CI: 0.36-1.84) and an excess risk of 21.63% (95% CI: 2.02-45.01). Conclusion Perimenopausal female workers exposed to noise displayed high prevalence rates of psychological distress and perimenopausal syndrome. Noise exposure levels and psychological distress exhibited combined correlations with reproductive aging outcomes, particularly perimenopausal syndrome. Thus, integrated management of noise and psychological distress warrants attention to potentially improve female workers' reproductive aging outcomes.
推荐理由:研究聚焦职业噪声与心理困扰对围绝经期生殖衰老的联合关联,样本量较大且同时使用贝叶斯网络与相加/相乘交互分析,对生殖衰老与职业暴露研究有参考价值;但与ART实验室和胚胎多组学核心关联较远,适合作为可浏览的交叉领域证据。
