عنوان انگلیسی Association between Occupational Noise Exposure and Depression
چکیده انگلیسی مقاله
Noise-induced hearing loss is a common occupational disorder. Previous studies have investigated the role of hearing deprivation in mood disorders, especially depression. The aim of this study was to elucidate the relationship between noise induced hearing loss (NIHL) and depression in employees of an iron ore plant. This was a cross-sectional study on 409 employees with at least 1-year job experience. In order to assess the association between noise exposure and NIHL with depression and based on the results of audiometry, employees were categorized into three groups: without noise exposure, with noise exposure and without hearing loss, and with noise exposure and hearing loss. Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI-II) was used for assessing the degree of depression. Demographic data and BDI-II score were compared among three groups. Mean (SD) age of the participants was 34.43 (7.8) years. BDI-II score was significantly higher in employees with noise exposure (with and without hearing loss) than employees without noise exposure (P<0.001). Categorical analysis of BDI-II score showed significantly higher prevalence of normal patients in patients without noise exposure, compared to two other groups (P<0.05). The results of this study showed that depression was more prevalent in employees with exposure to noise in their workplace regardless of suffering from NIHL than employees without noise exposure.
