Predictors of silicosis and variation in prevalence across mines among employed gold miners in South Africa

BMC Public Health, 2020
Background The stated intention to eliminate silicosis from the South African goldmining industry as well as current programmes to find and compensate ex-miners with silicosis require an understanding of variation in silicosis prevalence across the ...

AN UNUSUAL FORM OF SILICOSIS IN A STONE-CUTTER [PDF]

Acta Medica Iranica, 2007
Silicon dioxide or silica is the earth’s most abundant mineral. The primary pulmonary illness attributable to silica exposure is silicosis, which is observed in three forms: classic, accelerated and acute. A case of silicosis is presented in this article

RAB20 deficiency promotes the development of silicosis via NLRP3 inflammasome

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
Silicosis is a worldwide serious occupational disease that is caused by inhalation of silica crystals. However, little is known about the pathogenesis mechanism of silicosis. We performed single-cell sequencing in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) from

Giovanni Antonio Scopoli's De Hydrargyro Idriensi Tentamina (1761): Mercury Mining, Mercurialism, and Preventive Reasoning in Eighteenth‐Century Occupational Medicine

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, Volume 69, Issue 11, Page 996-1004, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Giovanni Antonio Scopoli (1723–1788), a physician‐naturalist of the Enlightenment, is primarily remembered for his contributions to botany and entomology. Less attention has been paid to his medical work De hydrargyro Idriensi Tentamina physico‐chymico‐medica (1761), written during his fifteen years of service as physician at the mercury mines

Lactate metabolism and protein lactylation in programmed cell death: From novel mechanism to therapeutic strategies in human diseases

Clinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
This review highlights protein lactylation as a metabolic‐epigenetic regulator linking lactate reprogramming to programmed cell death. By modulating histone and non‐histone targets, lactylation reshapes cell fate decisions and represents a promising biomarker and therapeutic target in human diseases.

Integrated multi-omics analyses reveal the pro-inflammatory and pro-fibrotic pulmonary macrophage subcluster in silicosis

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Background: Silicosis is a lethal occupational disease caused by long-term exposure to respirable silica dust. Pulmonary macrophages play a crucial role in mediating the initiation of silicosis.
