Background: Chronic nonspecific symptoms attributed to indoor nonindustrial work environments are common and may cause disability, but the medical nature of this disability is unclear. The aim was to medically characterize the disability manifested by chronic, recurrent symptoms and restrictions to work participation attributed to low-level indoor pollutants at workplace and whether the condition shares features with idiopathic environmental intolerance. Methods: We investigated 12 patients with indoor aire-related work disability. The examinations included somatic, psychological, and psychiatric evaluations as well as investigations of the autonomic nervous system, cortisol measurements, lung function, and allergy tests. We evaluated well-being, health, disability, insomnia, pain, anxiety, depression, and burnout via questionnaires. Results: The mean symptom history was 10.5 years; for disabling symptoms, 2.7 years. Eleven patients reported reactions triggered mainly by indoor molds, one by fragrances only. Ten reported sensitivity to odorous chemicals, and three, electric devices. Nearly all had co-occurrent somatic and psychiatric diagnoses and signs of pain, insomnia, burnout, and/or elevated sympathetic responses. Avoiding certain environments had led to restrictions in several life areas. On self-assessment scales, disability showed higher severity and anxiety showed lower severity than in physician assessments. Conclusion: No medical cause was found to explain the disability. Findings support that the condition is a form of idiopathic environmental intolerance and belongs to functional somatic syndromes. Instead of endless avoidance, rehabilitation approaches of functional somatic syndromes are applicable.

Peroxiredoxins, a novel protein family in lung cancer

<P>Cigarette smoke, the major risk factor for lung cancer, induces an accumulation of reactive oxygen species. These have multiple effects on cell defense, cell proliferation and cell death. Thus, compounds involved in the regulators of redox balance can be hypothesized to play a fundamental role in both carcinogenesis and tumor progression. Here, we have evaluated the expressions of all 6 peroxiredoxins (Prxs I–VI) in lung carcinomas. Prxs represent a protein family with the capability of breaking down hydrogen peroxide; thus, they can participate in cellular antioxidant defense, regulate cell proliferation and increase drug resistance of cultured cells. Altogether 92 cases were investigated by immunohistochemistry, including 32 adenocarcinomas, 45 squamous cell, 9 small cell and 6 other carcinomas. Additionally, 11 cases with adenocarcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma were studied by Western analysis and/or by RT-PCR. Prxs I, II, IV and VI were particularly elevated in lung carcinomas as assessed by immunohistochemistry and/or RT-PCR. Western analysis revealed that Prxs I and IV were significantly elevated in tumors compared to nonmalignant tissue (p = 0.04 and 0.002, respectively). There were remarkable variations in Prx expression in various tumor subtypes, the most striking being Prx IV expression, which was mainly associated with adenocarcinoma. Elevated Prx VI expression was associated with high-grade squamous cell carcinoma (p = 0.03) and Prx II expression, with advanced tumor stage (p = 0.01). Our results suggest that Prxs may have effects on the progression of lung cancer. © 2004 Wiley-Liss, Inc.</P>
