Risk Factors for Agricultural Injury: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Abstract: The objective of this study was to identify significant risk factors for agricultural injury based on the literature. The authors conducted a systematic review of commonly reported risk factors. Studies that reported adjusted odds ratio (OR) or relative risk (RR) estimates for the selected risk factors were identified from PubMed and Google Scholar. Pooled risk factor estimates were calculated using meta-analysis. A total of 441 (PubMed) and 285 (Google Scholar) studies were found in the initial searches; of t… Show more

“…Tables 1 and 2 provide a summary of the articles for noise exposure and hearing loss, respectively. There were also three reviews articles (Jadhav, Achutan, Haynatzki, Rajaram, & Rautiainen, 2015; Palmer, Harris, & Coggon, 2008; Wilkins & Action, 1982). The studies reviewed in those articles were included here, if relevant.…”
