Quantifying beryllium concentrations in plant shoots from forest ecosystems using cation‐exchange chromatography and quadrupole ICP‐MS

open access: yesAnalytical Science Advances, Volume 1, Issue 1, Page 8-21, June 2020., 2020
Abstract Beryllium (Be) is known to be one of the most toxic elements but at the same time exerts a stimulating effect on plant growth. Despite this contradiction, little is known about the Be metabolism in living organisms, partially because of the low amounts present and because the analysis of Be in plants by ICP‐MS remains challenging.

Outras pneumoconioses Other pneumoconioses

open access: yesJornal Brasileiro de Pneumologia, 2006
As pneumoconioses mais prevalentes são a silicose, a asbestose e a pneumoconiose do trabalhador do carvão. Outras pneumoconioses com repercussões clínicas, funcionais e estruturais distintas são causadas pela inalação de poeiras metálicas a partir de ...

Non-Infectious Granulomatous Lung Disease : Imaging Findings with Pathologic Correlation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Non-infectious granulomatous lung disease represents a diverse group of disorders characterized by pulmonary opacities associated with granulomatous inflammation, a relatively nonspecific finding commonly encountered by pathologists.

The Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Insertion/Deletion polymorphism is not associated with an increased risk of death or bronchopulmonary dysplasia in ventilated very low birth weight infants

open access: yesBMC Pediatrics, 2004
Background The ACE gene contains a polymorphism consisting of either the presence (insertion, I) or absence (deletion, D) of a 287 bp alu repeat in intron 16. The D allele is associated with increased ACE activity in both tissue and plasma.

Lung cancer treatment outcomes in recipients of lung transplant [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: Lung transplant recipients develop lung cancer more commonly than the general population. The best treatment approach for these patients is unclear. The goal of this study is to evaluate treatment outcomes in this population. METHODS: We used

Smoking inhibits the frequency of bronchovascular bundle thickening in sarcoidosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
RATIONALE/OBJECTIVES: Smoking has been associated with decreased incidence and prevalence of sarcoidosis, but few studies have evaluated effects of smoking on clinical parameters of the disease. The objectives were to determine the association of smoking

Geochemistry of trace elements as one of the important coal quality parameter: an example from Balingian Coal, Malaysia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Ash and sulphur are the two main variables that influence coal quality and are therefore very important contractual parameters in a coal supply agreement. Coal which is low in ash yield and sulphur content is considered as ‘cleaned coal’.

Gene-environment interactions in sarcoidosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Susceptibility to most human diseases is polygenic, with complex interactions between functional polymorphisms of single genes governing disease incidence, phenotype, or both. In this context, the contribution of any discrete gene is generally modest for

Understanding the Localization of Berylliosis: Interaction of Be2+ with Carbohydrates and Related Biomimetic Ligands

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, Volume 25, Issue 71, Page 16257-16269, December 18, 2019., 2019
Beryllium chemistry: A detailed study on the interaction of saccharide‐mimicking ligands with Be2+ delivered the first comprehensive knowledge on the preferred binding environment around Be ions in polysaccharides and glycoproteins (see graphic). Additional experiments enabled elucidation of beryllium‐induced alterations in biomolecules, which sheds ...
