Respirable Asbestiform Serpentines in Outdoor and Indoor Air Near an Active Serpentinite Quarry

open access: yesIndoor Air, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The excavation and processing of serpentinites release asbestos and asbestiform fibers into outdoor and indoor air near quarries. In this study, concentrations of respirable asbestiform antigorite and chrysotile in indoor and outdoor air in a village near a serpentinite quarry and processing plants in southwestern Poland were investigated. Serpentinite‐

The association between polypharmacy and mortality in patients with heart failure: Results from the PULSE dataset

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 6, Page 4316-4325, December 2025.
A study of 660 heart failure patients (mean age 76.1) found that polypharmacy was common, with only 5% discharged without it, and 60% had died by the end of a median 2.9‐year follow‐up. In patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), hyperpolypharmacy was associated with significantly higher mortality, while in those with ...

Microplastics in Human Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid

open access: yesRespirology, Volume 30, Issue 12, Page 1141-1152, December 2025.
We established a microplastic detection method using bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. The method detected microplastics, particularly those under 10 μm, in all patients, linked to lung and systemic inflammation. The potential relationship between microplastics and lung and systemic inflammation provides a foundation for larger studies on their health ...
