Early structure formation of foam concrete mix containing modifying admixture
Инженерно-строительный журнал, 2015 Cement based foam concrete of natural aging experiences high shrinkage of foam concrete mix in the formwork and shrinkage strain when drying. When managing the microstructure of the composite, namely the change (acceleration) of the microstructure ...

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, Volume 67, Issue 9, Page 813-822, September 2024.Abstract Objectives In Italy, asbestos was used intensively until its ban in 1992, which was extended for asbestos cement factories until 1994. The aim of this study was to evaluate the dose–response between asbestos exposure and asbestosis mortality across a pool of Italian occupational cohorts, taking into account the presence of competing risks ...

Chemie Ingenieur Technik, Volume 96, Issue 7, Page 958-968, July 2024.Current computer vision techniques are utilized to identify several types of concrete composites based on camera images. It is found that potentially asbestos‐containing components can be distinguished well from harmless concrete after crushing. Possible future applications are discussed.

Occupational asbestos exposure and risk of esophageal cancer: A systematic review and meta‐analysis
International Journal of Cancer, Volume 154, Issue 11, Page 1920-1929, 1 June 2024.What's new? Asbestos exposure is linked to cancer and can occur in different ways, including via ingestion or inhalation. For esophageal cancer (EC), while an association is strongly suspected, the interplay between asbestos exposure and risk remains unclear.

Pleural mesothelioma (PMe): The evolving molecular knowledge of a rare and aggressive cancer
Molecular Oncology, Volume 18, Issue 4, Page 797-814, April 2024.Pleural mesothelioma (PMe) is a rare but lethal pathology in which the carcinogen asbestos has a proven causative role. Asbestos travels inside the lungs and airways to prime degeneration of mesothelioma cells. Pathogenic molecular mechanisms and pathways are here outlined as well as ways for clinical intervention for this malignancy, which remains ...

Tectonics, Volume 43, Issue 4, April 2024.Abstract The Lizard ophiolite, Cornwall, South‐West England, is the largest and best‐preserved ophiolite within the Variscan orogenic belt. It forms part of the Rheic‐Rhenohercynian suture zone, and was obducted northwestward onto the passive continental margin of Avalonia (Laurussia) during the Middle Devonian.
