Abstract

The etiology of rheumatic diseases and factors that effects the immun system have not yet been completely clarified. In some studies it is suggested that organic solvents could cause rheumatological diseases and elevation of ANA, anti-dsDNA liters. Polyester workers in furniture industry were searched in order to reveal the relationship between rheumatological diseases and organic solvents. Thirty men who were exposed to toluene and derivatives for more than five years and age matched 30 healty men who were not exposed to these chemicals in any part of their lives were assessed in terms of clinical and laboratory findings of rheumatic diseases. In both groups neither clinical nor laboratory findings of rheumatic diseases were obtained. By systemic evaluation an increment in subjective symptoms, such as dizziness 10 (33%), headache 22 (73%) and ocular complaints (itching, burning and redness) 4 (13%), which are related to CMS and local irritations were found in workers group and it was obtained statistically significant (p

Özet

Romatizmal hastalıkların etyolojisi ve immün sistemi etkileyen faktörler halen tam olarak açıklığa kavuşmamıştır. Bazı çalışmalarda organik çözücülerin romatizmal hastalıklara ve ANA, anti-dsDNA titrasyonlannda yükselmelere sebep olabileceği bildirilmiştir. Romatizmal hastalıklar ile organik çözücülere maruziyetin ilişkisini araştırmak amacıyla mobilya sanayi polyester kolunda çalışan işçilerde tarama çalışması yapıldı. Toluen ve demelerine beş yıl ve üzerinde süreyle maruz kalan 30 erkek işçi ve hayatının hiç bir döneminde bu maddelere maruz kalmamış aynı yaş grubundaki 30 sağlıklı erkek romatizmal hastalıkların klinik ve laboratuvar bulguları yönüyle tarandı. Tarama sonucunda işçi ve kontrol grubunda romatizmal hastalıkların klinik ve laboratuar bulgularına rastlanmadı. İşçilerin sistemik sorgulamalarında SSS ve lokal imtasyonlarla ilgili başağnsı 22 (% 73), başdömnesi 10(%33), gözle ilgili şikayetler (kaşıntı, yanma ve kızarıklık) 4(%13) gibi sübjektif semptomlarında kontrol gru-buna göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı artış bulundu(p
