The Safety of Nail Products: Health Threats in the Nail Industry

International Journal of Dermatology, Volume 64, Issue 8, Page 1382-1387, August 2025.
ABSTRACT The information on nail product safety is currently limited, but has been increasing in recent years. This increasing research has shown that some ingredients in nail products are hazardous and can lead to both dermatologic and systemic diseases. This risk is present for nail product consumers and is increased for nail technicians.

Asbestosis Requiring Lung Transplantation in a Retired Hairdresser: An Occupational Exposure to Comb Through

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2025.
Asbestos is a group of naturally occurring, fibrous silicate minerals, which if inhaled can lead to the development of fibrotic interstitial lung disease as well as other pulmonary pathology. Several professions are historically known to be associated with asbestos exposure; however, hairdressers are not considered to be one of them.

Silicosarcoidosis: Histologic and Clinical Features of an Occupational Granulomatous Disease

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, Volume 68, Issue 6, Page 491-507, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Sarcoidosis is a multisystem inflammatory disease of unknown etiology. Growing evidence indicates that occupational exposure to respirable crystalline silica (RCS) is associated with an increased incidence of sarcoidosis. Yet a diagnosis of sarcoidosis rarely prompts investigation to identify preventable exposures.

Data‐Driven Feature Decomposition Integrated Prediction Model for Dust Concentration in Open‐Pit Mines

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 13, Issue 6, Page 3218-3242, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Accurate prediction of dust in open‐pit mines can serve as a foundation for implementing dust prevention and control measures. Based on the collection and monitoring of dust concentration, meteorological, and production data from open‐pit mines, the changing characteristics of dust concentration and its influencing factors were analyzed.
