However, the causality between these ambient exposures and disease is still largely unknown. This study aims to provide genetic evidence for this gap and investigates the dual role of inflammatory factors, emphasizing the need for integrated public health strategies.

- Asbestosis, a lung disease caused by long-term asbestos exposure, remains a significant public health challenge, with 36,339 new cases and 3,572 deaths reported globally in 2019.
- From 1990 to 2019, while the overall incidence and disability adjusted life years (DALYs) of asbestosis showed a slight decline, the mortality rates increased, particularly among certain demographics and regions.
- The findings indicate the need for targeted, cost-effective public health strategies to address the uneven burden of asbestosis, especially in high-impact countries like the United States, India, and China.
