Objective
To establish a database of occupational medicamentosa-like dermatitis induced by trichloroethylene (OMDT) from patients' electronic medical records and provide reliable data for epidemiological study, etiological analysis, clinical treatment, and prognosis.
Methods
The structure of the database was determined according to related literature and research interests in OMDT. Electronic medical records of all OMDT patients who were diagnosed and treated in Guangdong Province Hospital for Occupational Disease Prevention and Treatment from 1988 to 2014 were collected and transferred into EpiData 3.1 database in five sections (baseline, clinical manifestation, auxiliary examination, usage of glucocorticoid, and hospital expense).
Results
A database with a total of 196 OMDT patients was established, which consisted of five parts (baseline, clinical manifestation, auxiliary examination, usage of glucocorticoid, and hospital expense). Furthermore, three research projects and 13 research papers were completed based on the database.
Conclusion
The established comprehensive OMDT database can provide reliable data support for epidemiological investigation of the disease, improvement of therapeutic regimens, and predication of interest outcomes based on machine learning.
