Abstract:
This study aimed to assess Jinzhou city enterprise or business unit on-the-job worker pulmonary nodules disease status and related influencing factors to investigate, analyze its risk factors, early evaluation of pulmonary nodules, in order to achieve early screening and discovery early intervention, targeted for health education and health guidance, change the lifestyle, improve the quality of life, and to achieve the effect of disease prevention. The convenience sampling method was adopted to select the in-service employees of Jinzhou enterprises and public institutions who underwent physical examination in the Health Management Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinzhou Medical University from October 2023 to May 2024 as the research objects. The pulmonary nodules risk factor assessment questionnaire was used for investigation, and SPSS 23.0 software was used for data entry. Descriptive analysis, Chi-square test and binary Logistic regression were used to analyze the data. A total of 1350 questionnaires were sent out and 1300 were effectively received with effective recovery rate of 96.29%. LDCT examination found that 569 patients had pulmonary nodules of different conditions, accounting for 43.77% of the total number. The detection results of pulmonary nodular density showed that 382 cases were solid nodules, accounting for 29.38% of the total number of patients detected. 183 cases of ground glass nodules, accounting for 14.08% of the total number; There were 4 cases of partial solid nodules, accounting for 0.31% of the total. According to the detection results of diameter, 228 cases of nodules were 10-30mm, accounting for 17.54% of the total number. 204 cases of pulmonary nodules, accounting for 15.69%; 137 pulmonary nodules were detected, accounting for 10.54% of the total number of patients. According to the number of pulmonary nodules, 547 cases were single nodules, accounting for 42.08% of the total. There were 22 cases of multiple nodules (1.70%). Univariate analysis showed that gender, age, BMI, family history of pulmonary cancer, pulmonary tuberculosis, emphysema, pneumonia, COPD, diabetes, air pollution, lampblack exposure, radiation exposure, dust exposure, chemical exposure, smoking, passive smoking, consumption of vegetables and fruits were the influencing factors for pulmonary nodules. Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that age, family history of lung cancer, pulmonary tuberculosis, COPD, diabetes, air pollution, history of lampblack exposure, radiation exposure, dust exposure, chemical exposure, smoking, passive smoking, consumption of vegetables and fruits were the risk factors for pulmonary nodules. The regression equation = 2.444 +0.021X2 +0.583X4 +1.185X5 +2.228X8 +0.915X9 +0.666X10 +0.471X11 +0.871X12 +0.574X13 +0.803X14 +1.082X15 +0.519X16 -00.611X17 -0.468X18. The prevalence of pulmonary nodules was high in Jinzhou city. The detection results of the number, density and diameter of pulmonary nodules showed that the detection rate of single nodules, solid nodules and 10-30mm nodules was the highest. Age, family history of lung cancer, tuberculosis, COPD, diabetes, history of lampblack exposure, air pollution, radiation exposure, dust exposure, chemical exposure, smoking and passive smoking are the risk factors for pulmonary nodules. Consumption of fruits and vegetables above 500g is a protective factor of pulmonary nodules, which can delay the occurrence and development of pulmonary nodules.
