健康的肺
Work-related lung problems are unfortunately quite common. Experts estimate that up to 17% of adult asthma in the U.S. may be caused by work exposure, and even when the condition is not due to work, an estimated 22% of adults see their asthma symptoms worsened in the workplace.
不幸的是,与工作有关的肺部疾病相当普遍。专家估计,17%的美国成年人哮喘案例是由于工作接触造成的,即使这种状况不是由工作所致;专家估计22%的成年人的哮喘症状在工作场所变得恶化。
Thankfully, most types of occupational lung disease are preventable, says Philip Harber, MD, professor in the department of community, environment, and policy at the University of Arizona Mel & Enid Zuckerman College of Public Health. "Simple control measures can markedly reduce exposure and the risk," he says.
