Abstract: (84 Views)
Background and Objectives: More than 12 types of cancer are caused by contact with environmental factors and occupational carcinogens. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the trend of mortality and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) rates attributed to occupational carcinogens in Hamedan province, Iran, from 1990 to 2021.
Methods: In this ecological study, the Global Burden of Diseases database was used to collect the required data. The trend of changes in the mortality and disability-adjusted life years rates was examined using joinpoint regression analysis and the Join Point Regression software.
Results: The years of life lost (YLLs) due to premature death and disability attributed to occupational carcinogens in Hamadan Province increased from 10.31 per 1,000 population in 1990 to 23.33 per 1,000 population in 2021. The average annual percent change (AAPC) in DALYs was 3.79% for women and 2.57% for men. The all-cause mortality rate attributed to occupational carcinogens rose from 0.31 per 100,000 population in 1990 to 0.74 per 100,000 in 2021 (AAPC = 2.78%; 95% CI: 2.68% to 2.90%).
Conclusion: The trend of mortality and disability-adjusted life years due to occupational carcinogens in Hamadan province had an increasing trend overally. Periodic screenings for workers in high-risk occupations are essential to mitigate the burden of occupational cancers.
