Anthony Montanaro
Epidemiology of Occupational Asthma 155
Cori Copilevitz and Mark Dykewicz
In industrialized countries, occupational asthma has become the
most common occupational lung disease. The epidemiology of
occupational asthma provides important information about the
general prevalence of the disease, the prevalence in different occu¬
pations, personal risk factors (eg, atopy, smoking), and the degree
and type of exposures that influence the development of occupa¬
tional asthma. Such information can provide the basis for estab¬
lishing preventive and control surveillance programs to reduce
risks for occupational asthma and to reduce its morbidity.
Differential Diagnosis of Occupational Asthma 167
Stephen A. Tilles and Ashley Jerath Tatum
Confidently establishing the diagnosis of occupational asthma
(OA) is a complicated undertaking, because it requires that the
patient s asthma symptoms are caused exclusively (or at least in
large part) by occupational exposures. Asthma is a common dis¬
ease, and the differential diagnosis of asthma is a frequently
discussed subject that includes common and uncommon disor¬
ders. This article presents a broad characterization of OA, includ¬
ing the elements necessary to establish a diagnosis. Differential
diagnosis also is discussed.
Toxicologic Considerations in Workplace Exposures 177
Brent T. Burton
Virtually any substance may be toxic depending on the dose. This
concept embodies the dose response relationship, the cornerstone
VOLUME 23 NUMBER 2. MAY 2003 v
of toxicology. In contrast to an allergic response, which requires
immunologic sensitization for a response to occur, a toxic response
requires no previous exposure or immunologic sensitization. The
evaluation of a potential toxic exposure requires a detailed patient
evaluation in addition to consideration of the specific chemical
substance, route of exposure, duration and intensity of exposure,
and documentation of the pathologic consequences.
Occupational Rhinitis 193
Maria M. Petrick and Raymond G. Slavin
This article aims to define occupational rhinitis, classify its various
causes, review the steps in its diagnosis, and describe its nonphar
macologic and pharmacologic principles of management. Occupa¬
tional rhinitis frequently coexists with asthma but also occurs
alone. Although it does not have the same impact as occupational
asthma, occupational rhinitis causes distress, discomfort, and work
inefficiency. By concentrating on the patient s workplace, the clini¬
cian has an opportunity to practice preventive medicine: to recog¬
nize substances in the patient s micro and macroenvironment that
are causing the problems and then to intervene by altering the
environment or removing the patient from the environment.
Occupational Allergies Caused by Latex 205
Debra D. Fett Ahmed, Steven C. Sobczak, and
John W. Yunginger
Allergy to natural rubber latex is an important cause of occupa¬
tional allergy in healthcare workers. Disposable powdered latex
medical gloves are a major reservoir of latex allergens. Diagnosis
of latex allergy requires a careful clinical history and evidence of
latex sensitization by patch testing, skin testing, measurement of
latex specific IgE antibodies, or challenge testing. Optimal manage¬
ment requires education regarding cross reacting allergens, reduc¬
tion of exposure to dipped rubber products, and minimization of
exposure to latex aeroallergens.
Occupational Asthma Caused by Exposure to
Low Molecular Weight Chemicals 221
David I. Bernstein
Chemical agents cause approximately 40% of cases of occupatio¬
nal asthma (OA). Diagnosis of OA caused by chemicals relies on
the demonstration of decrements in lung function at the workplace
or during a controlled specific inhalation challenge to the suspect
chemical agent. Evaluation of workers is accomplished best with a
stepwise algorithmic approach and while the worker is sympto¬
matic and still exposed at work. An early diagnosis followed by
cessation of exposure can result in asthma remission and is likely
to prevent progression to chronic disabling obstructive disease.
vi CONTENTS
Occupational Asthma Caused by High Molecular Weight
Substances 235
Laurianne G. Wild and Manuel Lopez
More than 250 agents that are encountered in the workplace have
been shown to induce asthma in susceptible individuals. It is esti¬
mated that 2% to 15% of cases of asthma may be occupational.
High molecular weight substances, such as plant and animal pro¬
teins, enzymes, and large carbohydrate molecules, can induce IgE
mediated occupational asthma. The incidence of disease varies
among industries and is dependent on the physiochemical properties
of the agent, the level and duration of exposure, industrial hygiene,
engineering practices, and host factors. Risk factors, common high
molecular weight workplace antigens, diagnosis, treatment, and
prognosis are discussed.
Provocation Studies in the Diagnosis of Occupational Asthma 251
Ricardo A. Tan and Sheldon L. Spector
The list of occupational allergens grows longer each year as new
products and substances are reported by industries, ranging from
pharmaceutical to automobile manufacturing companies, to be
causative agents of occupational asthma (OA). The identification of
an agent that causes OA has medical, legal, and financial conse¬
quences for employers and employees. The diagnosis of OA and
identification of the offending agent should be undertaken in a
careful, methodical, and objective manner. This article focuses on
nonspecific and specific bronchial challenge testing for identifica¬
tion of OA triggers.
Occupational Contact Dermatitis 269
Marc Antezana and Frank Parker
Skin reactions are common in the workplace. The skin, which cons¬
tantly is exposed to chemicals and industrial processes, develops
inflammatory reactions, most commonly dermatitis, which may
have an allergic or irritant basis. The epidemiology, pathophysio
logy, and clinical features of common occupational dermatoses are
discussed. Irritant, allergic, and urticarial contact reactions are
compared, and their clinical features are outlined. Important occu¬
pational irritants and allergens, their sources, and the industries in
which they most commonly are found are listed. The prognosis and
therapy of these occupational reactions are examined.
Indoor Air Quality and Health: Does Fungal Contamination
Play a Significant Role? 291
Emil J. Bardana, Jr
Fungal contamination in buildings can vary greatly, and detec¬
tion in a dwelling does not necessarily constitute exposure. The
CONTENTS v»
presence of a specific immune response to a fungal antigen con¬
notes only that exposure to one or more related species has occurred,
but not that there is a symptomatic clinical state. Mold contamina¬
tion in buildings is associated with incursion of water or moisture.
When disease occurs, it likely is related to mild transient irritation
or allergic symptoms in sensitized individuals. Building related
disease that is caused by mycotoxicosis has not been proved in the
medical literature.
Environmental Sensitivity 311
Abba I. Terr
Environmental sensitivity is popular among a small group of
physicians who believe that exposure to low levels of numerous
environmental chemicals can cause a disease with numerous
symptoms but no objective physical or laboratory abnormalities.
The condition has many names but lacks a clear definition, and
numerous theories about the condition exist. Most methods of
diagnosis and treatment have been disproved, and the concepts
underlying these theories are not scientific. Environmental sensi¬
tivity needs to be evaluated critically using scientifically sound
methods.
