The relationship between occupational stress, musculoskeletal disorders and the mental health of coal miners: The interaction between BDNF gene, TPH2 gene polymorphism and the environment

Abstract

Besides demographic characteristics, occupational stress and musculoskeletal disorders are also factors affecting the mental health of coal miners. It was found that BDNF rs10835210, TPH2 rs4570625 and TPH2 rs4131347 interact with each other, increasing the risk of mental disorders among coal miners.
