Abstract. Dust is a solid particle measuring 1-100 μm in the air due to the process of crushing, breaking, and dismantling organic and inorganic materials such as coal. The coal mining process produces fine dust measuring 2.5 μm which can cause lung function disorders and cause respiratory diseases. The purpose of this scoping review is to determine the effect of dust on lung function in coal miners based on the research of the last ten years. This research method was carried out by scoping reviews of articles published by the database Pubmed, SpringerLink, Science direct, and Pro-Quest, published from 2011 to 2021. From 3,687 articles were filtered based on the inclusion criteria into 161 articles, then continued with filtration using the exclusion criteria were obtained 150 articles, and there were six articles duplications so that the articles that met the eligibility criteria based on PICOS were five articles. The analysis results of all articles showed that coal miners experienced a decrease in lung function characterized by decreased spirometry results. The conclusion of this study stated that dust affected lung function in coal miners characterized by impaired lung function either obstructive, restrictive, or mixed with the risk factors are age, smoking, years of service, personal dust exposure, and mine size. Abstrak. Debu merupakan partikel padat berukuran 1-100 μm yang berada di udara karena proses penghancuran, pemecahan dan pembongkaran bahan organik maupun nonorganik contohnya batubara. Proses penambangan batubara menghasilkan debu halus berukuran 2,5 μm yang dapat menyebabkan gangguan fungsi paru dan menimbulkan penyakit pernapasan. Scoping review ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui efek debu terhadap fungsi paru pada penambang batubara berdasarkan penelitian 10 tahun terakhir. Metode penelitian ini dilakukan dengan cara scoping review artikel yang dipublikasikan oleh database Pubmed, Springerlink, Science direct dan Pro-Quest, diterbitkan pada tahun 2011 sampai 2021. Dari 3.687 artikel dilakukan filtrasi berdasarkan kriteria inklusi terdapat 161 artikel, kemudian dilanjutkan dengan filtrasi menggunakan kriteria ekslusi didapat sebanyak 150 artikel dan terdapat duplikasi sebanyak 6 artikel sehingga artikel yang memenuhi kriteria kelayakan berdasarkan PICOS yaitu 5 artikel. Hasil analisis semua artikel menunjukan penambang batubara mengalami penurunan fungsi paru ditandai dengan hasil spirometri yang menurun. Kesimpulan penelitian ini menunjukan debu memiliki efek terhadap fungsi paru pada penambang batubara ditandai dengan adanya gangguan fungsi paru baik obstruktif, restriktif ataupun campuran dengan faktor resikonya adalah usia, merokok, masa kerja, paparan debu personal, dan ukuran tambang.

“…Tian et al 10 revealed the relationship between miners’ fatigue and unsafe behavior by recording physiological behavior with eye trackers, behavior recorders and arm adjustment testers. Risk assessments of occupational diseases, such as anthraciosis pneumoconiosis and lung cancer, have also been studied 11 , 12 . In the construction industry, the fatigue of construction workers was usually scaled by subjective questionnaires in most studies.…”

In recent years, fatigue has become an important issue in modern life that cannot be ignored, especially in some special occupations. Agricultural workers are high-risk occupations that, under fatigue conditions over a long period, will cause health problems. In China, since very few studies have focused on the fatigue state of agricultural workers, we were interested in using electrocardiogram (ECG) signals to analyze the fatigue state of agricultural workers. Healthy agricultural workers were randomly recruited from hilly orchards in South China. Through the field experiment, 130 groups of 5-min interval ECG signals were collected, and we analyzed the ECG signal by HRV. The time domain (meanHR, meanRR, SDNN, RMSSD, SDSD, PNN20, PNN50 and CV), frequency domain (VLF percent, LF percent, HF percent, LF norm, HF norm and LF/HF) and nonlinear parameters (SD1, SD2, SD1/SD2 and sample entropy) were calculated and Spearman correlation coefficient analysis and Mann–Whitney U tests were performed on each parameter for further analysis. For all subjects, nine parameters were slightly correlated in nonfatigue and fatigue state. Six parameters were significantly increased and ten HRV parameters were significantly decreased compared the nonfatigue state. As for males, fifteen parameters were significantly different, and for females, eighteen parameters were significantly different. In addition, the probability density functions of SDNN, SDSD, VLF%, HFnorm and LF/HF were significantly different in nonfatigue and fatigue state for different genders, and the nonlinear parameters become more discrete compared the nonfatigue state. Finally, we obtained the most suitable parameters, which reflect the fatigue characteristics of orchard workers under different genders. The results have instructional significance for identifying fatigue in orchard workers and provide a convincing and valid reference for clinical diagnosis.

“…This may have been a factor in the resurgence of coal mining-related respiratory diseases in some mines (e.g. Fan et al, 2018;Wu et al, 2019). For this reason, dust monitoring control during the handling of different mining technologies requires extensive investigation, including information on the physicochemical characteristics of the deeply inhalable (particle size below 10 µm) and respirable fractions (particle size below 4 µm and 2.5 µm), both of which could be a key factor in the prevention of coal dust problems in mining, such as diverse authors are contributing (Zhang et al 2020;Szkudlarek and Janas 2021;Jiang and Luo 2021;Liu et al 2021;Reed et al 2021).…”

Despite international efforts to limit worker exposure to coal dust, it continues to impact the health of thousands of miners across Europe. Airborne coal dust has been studied to improve risk models and its control to protect workers. Particle size distribution analyses shows that using spraying systems to suppress airborne dusts can reduce particulate matter concentrations and that coals with higher ash yields produce finer dust. There are marked chemical differences between parent coals and relatively coarse deposited dusts (up to 500 µm, DD500). Enrichments in Ca, K, Ba, Se, Pb, Cr, Mo, Ni and especially As, Sn, Cu, Zn and Sb in the finest respirable dust fractions could originate from: (i) mechanical machinery wear; (ii) variations in coal mineralogy; (iii) coal fly ash used in shotcrete, and carbonates used to reduce the risk of explosions. Unusual enrichments in Ca in mine dusts are attributed to the use of such concrete, and elevated K to raised levels of phyllosilicate mineral matter. Sulphur concentrations are higher in the parent coal than in the DD500, probably due to relatively lower levels of organic matter. Mass concentrations of all elements observed in this study remained below occupational exposure limits.
