This letter refers to the systematic review by Sarah Wu addressing occupational risk factors for musculoskeletal (MSK) disorders in musicians, from the June 2007 issue. Our study, “Predictors of pain and other musculoskeletal symptoms among professional instrumental musicians: elucidating specific effects,” was one of eight papers included in the review, and we are writing to address what we feel were some weaknesses and errors in this review, which may have deterred subsequent researchers in the field from fully examining our paper

Occupational Risk Factors

In areas where Histoplasma is endemic in the environment, occupations involving activities exposing workers to soil that contains bird or bat droppings may pose a risk for histoplasmosis. Occupational exposures are frequently implicated in histoplasmosis outbreaks. In this paper, we review the literature on occupationally acquired histoplasmosis. We describe the epidemiology, occupational risk factors, and prevention measures according to the hierarchy of controls.
