Ltd.10.26689/ssr.v7i12.13321ArticleAnalysis of Occupational Health Examination Results of Radiation Workers in Yangzhou in 2025https://artdesignp.com/journal/SSR/7/12/10.26689/ssr.v7i12.13321LiFaqiang,QiuFeifei20257122025-12-31Objective: To assess the health status of 2,957 radiation workers who underwent occupational health examinations in Yangzhou in 2025, and to explore the health effects of low-dose ionizing radiation. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted, and the health examination data were statistically analyzed. Results: Significant differences in abnormal rates were observed among different genders, ages, job types, and examination types (P < 0.05). The highest abnormal rate was found in electrocardiogram (41.56%), followed by liver function (16.44%) and blood pressure (16.03%). The abnormal rates of lens, blood pressure, electrocardiogram, and nails increased with age. Conclusion: Long-term exposure to low-dose ionizing radiation has adverse effects on the health of radiation workers, underscoring the necessity of strengthening occupational health protection.
