Silicosis prevalence and related issues in India: a scoping review.
J Occup Med Toxicol
January 2025
Indian Council of Medical Research-National Institute for Implementation Research on Non-Communicable Diseases, Jodhpur, 342005, India.
Background: Silicosis remains a major occupational health challenge in India. This review systematically examines the prevalence, risk factors, regional differences, and diagnostic tools specific to India's high-risk industries. Additionally, it assesses policy gaps and offers insights from diverse clinical and qualitative studies, aiming to inform targeted public health interventions and support the development of effective occupational health policies.

J Gen Intern Med
January 2025
Executive Division, National Center for PTSD, White River Junction, USA.
Background: Moral injury affects a variety of populations who make ethically complex decisions involving their own and others' well-being, including combat veterans, healthcare workers, and first responders. Yet little is known about occupational differences in the prevalence of morally injurious exposures and outcomes in nationally representative samples of such populations.
Objective: To examine prevalence of potentially morally injurious event (PMIE) exposure and clinically meaningful moral injury in three high-risk groups.
Preexisting multimorbidity predicts greater mortality risks related to long-term PM exposure.

January 2025
Institute of Social Development and Health Management, Hubei Province Key Laboratory of Occupational Hazard Identification and Control, School of Public Health, Wuhan University of Science and Technology, Wuhan 430065, China. Electronic address:
Long-term health risk assessments related to ambient fine particulate matter (PM) exposure have been more limited to general population but not towards individuals suffering from multimorbidity. While both multimorbidity and PM are independently linked to elevated mortality risk, their combined effects and interactions remain practically unexplored. A cross-cohort analysis was undertaken on data from 3 prospective cohorts, initially enrolling 869038 adults aged ≥18 years followed up during 2005-2022.

Department of Preventive Medicine, College of Medicine, The Catholic University of Korea, Seoul, Republic of Korea; Environmental Health Center, College of Medicine, The Catholic University of Korea, Seoul, Republic of Korea. Electronic address:
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are widely used in consumer products and are easily encountered in daily life. PFASs that accumulate in the human body can negatively affect adolescent health. This study aimed to identify key exposure pathways that influence serum PFAS levels in Korean adolescents, using data from the Korean National Environmental Health Survey (2018-2020) cycle 4.

Occup Med (Lond)
January 2025
Maine et Loire, Univ Angers, CHU Angers, Univ Rennes, Inserm, EHESP, Irset (Institut de recherche en santé, environnement et travail) - UMR_S 1085, IRSET-ESTER, SFR ICAT, CAPTV CDC, 49000 Angers, France.
Background: Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is the connective tissue disease with the highest individual mortality. Crystalline silica is known to be an occupational risk factor for SSc. To assess past crystalline silica exposure, we aimed to study the validity of a job exposure matrix (JEM) to assess occupational exposure to crystalline silica compared to specific occupational interviews in two populations of SSc patients.
