Estimating metabolic rate from International Organization for Standardization heart rate method and two walking equations
Ind Health. 2024 Apr 3. doi: 10.2486/indhealth.2024-0015. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAssigning a value for metabolic rate is central to heat stress assessment. ISO 8996 describes a predictive method for walking based on the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) method and another generalized method based on average heart rate. In addition, the US Army uses the load carriage decision aid (LCDA) predictive equation to estimate metabolic rate. The purpose of this study was to assess the accuracy/bias and precision of the ISO heart rate method and the ACSM and LCDA equations. The laboratory database included metabolic ...

Reducing work interruptions and work-related interruptions of employees' leisure time through job analysis and leadership coaching
Ind Health. 2024 Mar 29. doi: 10.2486/indhealth.2023-0183. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe study tested a brief intervention to stimulate and help supervisors reduce work-related interruptions among their employees, both at work and during leisure time. The core of the short-term intervention was a workplace analysis of work-related interruptions, which was fed back to supervisors in combination with a work redesign stimulation explaining why and how to reduce interruptions. Two intervention sessions, as one-on-one physical meetings, that lasted 1.5 h each and were 2 wk apart. The sample consisted of 20 managers and 89 e...

Asbestos in organochlorine insecticide powder sprinkled between pages of antiquarian books in a library in Japan
Ind Health. 2024 Mar 25. doi: 10.2486/indhealth.2023-0185. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLibrarians at a university had planned to check the collection prior to the library renovations that began in 2015. They had previous knowledge of the presence of a light greyish-white powder with an unpleasant odour (hereinafter referred to as 'powder') sprinkled between the pages of antiquarian books in the library archive. The purpose of this study was to identify this powder with the help of experts from both inside and outside the university. The powder was qualitatively analysed using gas chromatography with mass spectrometry aft...
