Presentation
[…] the following comprehensive statement: The Definition of Pneumoconiosis Earlier on, in 1950, a definition of pneumoconiosis was established at the 3rd International Conference of Experts on Pneumoconiosis and this has continued to be used until the present [iloencyclopaedia.org]
In its most typical presentation, the disease is characterised by giant cell interstitial pneumonia. Interestingly, the same disease occurred among Belgian diamond polishers after the introduction of polishing disks made of diamond–cobalt. [erswhitebook.org]
Every pro-DE argument above has been made--and debunked as being at least slightly more complicated than the manner in which is it presented above--before. They've all, in fact, been debunked many times over before. [bedbugger.com]

Eye Contact: Causes irritation, redness, and pain. Chronic Exposure: Prolonged inhalation exposure may produce silicosis. [plantedtank.net]

Cough
Symptoms may include coughing, sore throat, breathing difficulty (dyspnea), and wheezing. Excessive inhalation may cause decreased pulmonary function, lung damage and silicosis. Acute silicosis is manifested by dyspnea, fever, cough and weight loss. [plantedtank.net]
Clinically, it is characterized by an insidious onset of breathlessness with exertion and a nonproductive cough, leading to progressive DYSPNEA. [haz-map.com]

Suggestibility
Above results suggest that engineering controls, periodic environmental and medical surveillance are important for preventing pneumoconiosis in the diatomite factory. Key words: Diatomaceous Earth ; Diatomaceous Earth Pneumoconiosis [jpmph.org]
The patient's diagnosis was based on typical features: restrictive lung function, abnormal chest roentgenogram suggesting lung fibrosis, a history of exposure to silica and hard metals, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid findings, and mineralogical studies [journals.lww.com]
DE is not a carcinogen, and I've never seen anyone reputable here ever suggest that DE causes cancer. 2. [bedbugger.com]
Overall, the study suggests that diatomaceous earth pneumoconiosis (radiographically defined) is an entity distinct from silicosis. Recent exposure levels may produce radiographic abnormalities but do not lead to demonstrable physiologic effect. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
In vivo verification is required, but these data suggest that crystalline silica content alone is not a sufficient indicator of the potential DE hazard. [springermedizin.de]

Hunger
الصفحة 5 - The fate of these people seems singularly hard; in their early infancy, they are most frequently treated with great brutality, and almost starved with cold and hunger; they are thrust up narrow, and sometimes hot chimneys, where they are bruised [books.google.com]
Treatment
I suspect that many people would prefer not to be exposed to a substance that can cause health problems for which medical treatment has no effective treatment methodology. 7. For people with pre-existing breathing issues--asthma, COPD, etc. [bedbugger.com]
Treatment depends on the type of exposure and the stage of the disease. It may involve medicines, oxygen therapy, or a lung transplant in severe cases. [icdlist.com]
It is also used to filter water, particularly in the drinking water treatment process and in fish tanks, and other liquids, such as beer and wine. [ipfs.io]
Toxic Effects A-Ingestion : Ingestion of soluble iron salts, such as those found in common iron tablets taken in the treatment or prophylaxis of iron-deficiency anemia, are potentially very toxic. [digitalfire.com]
Drugs and treatment (selected examples) a. Antibiotics (nitrofurantoin, penicillins, and sulfasalazine); b. Cardiac drugs (hydralazine, procainamide, and amiodarone); c. [haz-map.com]
Etiology
Certain conditions have both an underlying etiology and multiple body system manifestations due to the underlying etiology. [icd10coded.com]
Interstitial lung diseases are classified by their etiology (known or unknown causes), and radiological-pathological features. [haz-map.com]
Epidemiology
Epidemiological studies do not support the hypothesis that amorphous silicas have any relevant potential to induce fibrosis in workers with high occupational exposure to these substances, although one study disclosed four cases with silicosis among subjects [ukvapers.org]
However, the epidemiology of these rare conditions is rather poorly understood. Future aims More effort should be made at a European level to recognise, register and prevent these conditions. [erswhitebook.org]
Prevention

It can also be rubbed on to the dog or cat's coat to prevent an investation of lice and ticks. Aside from some dryness, diatomaceous earth appears to cause no problems to the animals. [healthyliving.azcentral.com]
Future aims More effort should be made at a European level to recognise, register and prevent these conditions. Extrinsic allergic alveolitis (see chapter 22 ) Occupational causes of EAA are quite diverse. [erswhitebook.org]

Under the term “disease” are included for preventive reasons the earliest manifestations which are not necessarily disabling or life shortening. [iloencyclopaedia.org]
