The impact of occupational hazards in coking plants on the incidence of hypertension—a longitudinal study
The study shows that the incidence density of hypertension among employees in the chemical industry, coking, and coal preparation workshops after joining the company is significantly higher than that in the logistics group, and the risk of incidence is relatively higher (HR = 1.622-1.822 after controlling for confounding factors). Long-term exposure of coking plant workers to related environments increases the risk of hypertension.
