Fibrinogen-to-albumin ratio as a novel biomarker in pneumoconiosis: a retrospective cohort study [PDF]

International Journal of Occupational Medicine and Environmental Health
Objectives Pneumoconiosis is the most common occupational respiratory disease in Turkey and is associated with chronic systemic inflammation. Both occupational dust exposure and heavy metals such as lead may contribute to inflammatory responses.

Long-term survival and the critical role of competing risks in pneumoconiosis: a large-scale retrospective cohort study [PDF]

Frontiers in Public Health
BackgroundThe extension of survival in patients with pneumoconiosis has led to a shifting mortality spectrum where non-pneumoconiosis causes increasingly act as competing risks.

HMGB1 could restrict 1,3-β-glucan induced mice lung inflammation by affecting Beclin1 and Bcl2 interaction and promoting the autophagy of epithelial cells

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
Fungi were microorganisms that are ubiquitous in a variety of environments. Inhalation of fungi-contaminated organic dust led to hypersensitivity pneumonitis and might eventually cause irreversible pulmonary fibrosis.
