Standardized hospital contact ratios (SHCRs) were compared in two time periods and the relative risks of hospital contact as a function of employment time were estimated. Methods: Cohorts of all Danish seafarers (officers and non-officers) registered by the Danish Maritime Authority (DMA) 1989\u201498 and fishermen retrieved from a pension registry 1989\u201498 were linked to the nationwide Occupational Hospitalization Registry (OHR) and followed up for incident diseases in two five-year time periods, from 1 January 1994 and 1 January 1999, respectively, using rates specific for age and calendar time for the entire Danish workforce as a reference. Results: The SHCRs for lung and cardiovascular diseases were high for non-officers. Among male officers, the SHCR for diabetes was high in the 1999 cohort and the SHCR for chronic heart diseases was statistically significantly higher in the 1999 than in the 1994 cohort. For both time periods high SHCR values were found for bronchitis, emphysema, cancer of the lung, alcohol-related liver diseases, and diabetes among male non-officers, and lung cancer among male officers. Among female non-officers, a high SHCR for skin melanomas was seen. Among fishermen high SHCRs for bronchitis, emphysema, lung cancer, and Raynaud's syndrome were found in both cohorts. No duration\u2014 response pattern was observed in any of the analyses, which may reflect health- and lifestyle-related selection into the trades or a healthy worker effect. Conclusions: Danish seafarers, especially short-term employees, had an elevated risk of hospitalization for lifestyle-related diseases.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1080\/14034940701267385","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,9,22]],"date-time":"2007-09-22T23:05:40Z","timestamp":1190502340000},"page":"481-489","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":27,"title":["Hospital contacts for chronic diseases among Danish seafarers and fishermen: A population-based cohort study"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"35","author":[{"given":"Linda","family":"Kaerlev","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Unit of Maritime Medicine at University of Southern Denmark, Esbjerg, Denmark, Specialist in Occupational Medicine, Esbjerh, Denmark,"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"S\u00f8ren","family":"Dahl","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Occupational Health, Haderslev Hospital, Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Per Sabro","family":"Nielsen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Unit of Maritime Medicine at University of Southern Denmark, Esbjerg, Denmark, Department of Occupational Health, Esbjerg Hospital, Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J\u00f8rn","family":"Olsen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Public Health, Department of Epidemiology, UCLA, LA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Harald","family":"Hannerz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Institute of Occupational Health, Copenhagen, Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anker","family":"Jensen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Occupational Health, Haderslev Hospital, Denmark, Danish Defence, Occupational Health Center South, Fredericia, Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Finn","family":"T\u00fcchsen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Institute of Occupational Health, Copenhagen, Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2007,10,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"atypb1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ije\/25.6.1237"},{"key":"atypb2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.306.6889.1379"},{"key":"atypb3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2486\/indhealth.36.312"},{"key":"atypb4","first-page":"405","volume":"10","author":"Jaremin B.","year":"1997","journal-title":"Int J Occup Med Environ Health"},{"key":"atypb5","first-page":"295","volume":"69","author":"Balanza Galindo S.","year":"1995","journal-title":"Rev Esp Salud Publica"},{"key":"atypb6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ajim.4700250610"},{"issue":"2","key":"atypb7","first-page":"1","volume":"25","author":"Andersen A.","year":"1999","journal-title":"Scand J Work Environ Health"},{"key":"atypb8","first-page":"145","volume":"62","author":"Hansen HL","year":"2005","journal-title":"OEM"},{"key":"atypb9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/her\/cyg045"},{"key":"atypb10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1179\/107735297800407758"},{"key":"atypb11","first-page":"5","volume":"47","author":"Jensen OC","year":"1996","journal-title":"Bull Inst Marit Trop Med Gdynia"},{"key":"atypb12","first-page":"139","volume":"12","author":"Hansen HL","year":"1994","journal-title":"TMI"},{"key":"atypb13","first-page":"761","volume":"62","author":"Kaerlev L.","year":"2005","journal-title":"OEM"},{"key":"atypb14","volume-title":"Report II: Report on an ILO investigation into the living and working conditions of seafarers","author":"International Labour Organization (ILO).","year":"2002"},{"key":"atypb15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5271\/sjweh.410"},{"key":"atypb16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5271\/sjweh.731"},{"key":"atypb17","first-page":"207","volume":"51","author":"Soll-Johanning H.","year":"2004","journal-title":"Dan Med Bull"},{"key":"atypb18","volume-title":"Occupation-related morbidity and mortality among merchant seafarers with particular reference to infectious diseases","author":"Hansen HL","year":"1996"},{"key":"atypb19","volume-title":"Danmarks Kuttern\u00f8gle 2000, Silver Star Reklame, Skagen"},{"key":"atypb20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ije\/21.3.450"},{"key":"atypb21","volume-title":"Fiskeri og helbred.
