Silicosis: II.—Radiology and Pathology
have a method, by means of serial X-ray examinations at different stages of the disease, of watching the pathological processes at work during life, and of correlating the findings with clinical symptoms and the degree of disability. In a case suspected, on clinical grounds, of silicosis, the two deciding points are (1) a history of exposure to silica dust, and (2) X-ray findings. Either alone ...
متن کاملThe effect of cortisone on experimental silicosis.
Alterations in cellular and fibrous tissue reaction due to cortisone and A.C.T.H. have been demonstrated in human beings by several workers such as Freeman, Fershing, Wang, and Smith (1950), and by Cavallero, Sala, Amira, and Borasi (1951) in the carbon tetrachloride necrosis of rats' livers. The influence of cortisone on the phagocytic action of the reticulo-endothelial system on carbon partic...
متن کاملSilicosis on the Witwatersrand Gold Mines.
Silicosis is an incurable non-infectious occupational disease. It is one of the pneumoconioses, a generic group of long diseases associated with dusty occupations. Silicosis is caused by continuous inhalation of microscopic particles of free silica (quartz) dust measuring from one to three microns in diameter (a micron is equivalent to 0,0001 centimetres). If these particles penetrate to the de...
متن کاملAcute Silicosis
A QUARTER of the earth's crust is composed of silicon, so it is not surprising that the inhalation of dust has been recognised for centuries as a cause of shortness of breath in miners and stone operatives. In 1649 Dimerbrook (Collins, 1915) described chest rigidity associated with dyspncea in the granite workers of the Carpathians, who were themselves painfully aware of the occupational hazard...
متن کاملFurther information on aluminium inhalation in silicosis.
OBJECTIVES In previous studies, a significant reduction in biological activity of quartz by the surface chemistry of aluminium was noted. Aluminium lactate inhalation one month after quartz exposure significantly suppressed silicosis. In a recent study, it was noted that aluminium inhalation failed to alter the silicosis process after disease was recognised by standard chest radiography in the ...
