High ambient temperatures and work-related injuries

Basagaña, Xavier·2014·Occupational and Environmental Medicine

Abstract

In the environmental epidemiology setting, dozens of time series studies have been used to link high ambient temperatures to daily counts of mortality or hospital admissions.1 ,2 In the occupational setting, studies looking at the effect of short-term exposure to high temperatures have focused on, for example, the occurrence of heatstroke cases in different occupational groups3 or the effects of high temperature on productivity.4 ,5 Xiang et al 6 used data from compensation claims to build a time series of daily work-related injuries, and then used time series techniques to examine how fluctuations in ambient temperature are associated with the number of daily injuries. In their study, ambient temperature was indeed associated with work injuries, but the shape of the association was not what one would expect a priori. We …

Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Time-series studies on mortality and morbidity due to heat stress often do not take into consideration other external causes of outcomes.

    “Additional discrepancies in assessing extent of heat stress is addressed by Basagana (2014) [19] who commented that time-series studies on mortality and morbidity due to heat stress often do not take into consideration other external causes of outcomes.”
  • The number of daily HRIs increase as the ambient temperature increases beyond a certain range.

    “The number of daily HRIs increase as the ambient temperature increases beyond a certain range. The morbidity effects of rising temperatures are slow at first, but they rise steadily as the temperature continues to increase [19].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
