Abstract

Introduction: Studies demonstrating perceived occupational stress, obesity & osteopenia among industrial workers are very limited. This pilot study was conducted to analyze the inter-relationships, if any, between stress, obesity and osteopenia among industrial workers. Materials and Methods: All patients who attended the health camps aging from 18 years to 70 years of either sex were the subjects of the study. They were subjected to General Physical Examination along with measurement of anthropometric parameters (Body Mass Index, Waist to hip ratio) Blood pressure and Systemic examination. Perceived Stress Scale (4 point) accepted worldwide for assessment of Stress was given in the form of Clinical Questionnaire to the subjects. Blood samples from the patients were subjected to random blood sugar and lipid profile. Bone Scan was done to assess the Bone Density as a marker of Osteoporosis. Comparison of the parameters obtained were done using appropriate statistical methods. Correlations were done using Pearson’s correlation co-efficient. All statistical tests were conducted at 5% level of significance.
