Abstract
To investigate current situation of facial wrinkles of male construction workers in Beijing area and to discuss the correlative factors. A total of 149 male construction works and 63 male non-construction workers in Beijing were required to complete a questionnaire on their exposure to sunlight, dust, noise, and heat in their workplace environment. Their facial wrinkle scores were measured by VISIA Complexion Analysis System. The two-sample t test, chi-square test, and multiple linear regression were used for statistical analysis RESULTS: The exposure to sunlight, dust, noise, and heat of construction workers was significantly higher than that of non-construction workers (P<.01). The wrinkle score of construction workers between 20 and 29years old was significantly higher than that of non-construction workers (t=4.077, P<.01). The facial wrinkle score of construction workers(r=0.657, P<.01) and non-construction workers (r=0.681, P<.01) was both positively correlated with age. The wrinkle score of construction workers was related to age, sunlight, and noise(P<.01). The wrinkle score of male construction workers between 20 and 29years old is significantly higher than that of non-construction workers in Beijing. Age, sunlight, and noise were the main influencing factors of wrinkle.
