Parental occupational exposure to solvents and risk of developing testicular germ cell tumors among sons: a French nationwide case-control study (TESTIS study)
CONCLUSION: Overall, no solid association was found between parental occupational exposure to solvents and TGCT risk. The association found with maternal occupational exposure to fuels and petroleum solvents among older men needs further investigation.PMID:37649372 | DOI:10.5271/sjweh.4102 (Source: Scandinavian Journal of Work, Environment and Health)

Effectiveness of 'motivational interviewing' on sick leave: a randomized controlled trial in a social insurance setting
Conclusions This study did not provide evidence that MI offered by NAV caseworkers to sick-listed individuals was more effective on RTW than usual case management or an active control. Providing MI in this context could be challenging as only half of the MI group received the intervention. by Aasdahl L, Standal MI, Hagen R, Solbjør M, Bagøien G, Fossen H, Foldal VS, Bjørngaard JH, Rysstad T, Grotle M, Johnsen R, Fors EA. doi:10.5271/sjweh.4116 (Source: Scandinavian Journal of Work, Environment and Health)

The global health and economic impact of low-back pain attributable to occupational ergonomic factors in the working-age population by age, sex, geography in 2019
Conclusions Globally, OEF-attributable LBP presented a heavy burden on health and economic systems. Exercise together with education, active monitoring, evidence-based medical practices, alternative cost-effective solutions, and prioritizing health policies are needed. by Chen N, Fong DYT, Wong JYH. doi:10.5271/sjweh.4114 (Source: Scandinavian Journal of Work, Environment and Health)

Occupational mechanical exposures as risk factor for chronic low-back pain: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Conclusions Moderate evidence of an association was found for lifting/carrying loads, non-neutral postures, and combined mechanical exposures. Low or very low evidence was found for whole-body vibrations, standing/walking, and sitting. Studies using standardized exposure definition, metric, and technical measurements are highly warranted. by Jahn A, Andersen JH, Christiansen DH, Seidler A, Dalbøge A. doi:10.5271/sjweh.4112 (Source: Scandinavian Journal of Work, Environment and Health)
