ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of newly diagnosed occupational pneumoconiosis (hereinafter referred to as "pneumoconiosis") in Guangdong Province from 2011 to 2020. Methods Clinical data of newly diagnosed pneumoconiosis in Guangdong Province from 2011 to 2020 was collected from the “Health Hazards Monitoring Information System” under “China Disease Prevention and Control Information System”. The distribution of the cases was analyzed retrospectively. Results A total of 2 731 cases of newly diagnosed pneumoconiosis were reported from 2011 to 2020 in Guangdong Province, with cases at stages Ⅰ,Ⅱ, and Ⅲ accounting for 61.6%, 23.8%, and 14.6%, respectively. Except for talc pneumoconiosis, 12 other types of pneumoconiosis were reported. The top three incidence of diseases were silicosis, other pneumoconiosis, and welder's pneumoconiosis, accounting for 58.8%, 22.0% and 11.0%, respectively. Males accounted for 97.5%, and females 2.5%. The median age of onset was 47 years old. The median dust exposure duration was 9.8 years, with 19.4% of cases having a dust exposure duration less than 5.0 years. And 80.7% of the cases were distributed in the Pearl River Delta region. The industries with the new cases were mainly the manufacturing (accounting for 69.4%), and 34.8% of cases were found in private limited liability companies. Cases in medium- and small-sized enterprises accounted for 35.7% and 34.3% respectively. Conclusion Silicosis, other pneumoconiosis, and welder's pneumoconiosis are predominant in Guangdong Province. The prevention and control of pneumoconiosis should focus on small- and medium-sized private enterprises in the concentrated manufacturing industry in the Pearl River Delta region.
