Mediating effect of occupational stress between skeletal muscle disorders and depressive symptoms in firefighters: a Structural Equation Modeling approach
Occupational stress has a partial indirect effect between SMD and DS among firefighters. Skeletal muscle disorders could affect DS not only directly, but also indirectly, by affecting OS. These findings may be of great significance and contribution to the future research of firefighters' occupational health. Int J Occup Med Environ Health. 2025;38(1):18-29.
