Pneumoconiosis is the general term for a class of interstitial lung disease where inhalation of dust ( for example, ash dust, lead particles, pollen grains etc) has caused interstitial fibrosis. The three most common types are asbestosis, silicosis, and coal miner's lung. Pneumoconiosis often causes restrictive impairment, although diagnosable pneumoconiosis can occur without measurable impairment of lung function. Depending on extent and severity, it may cause death within months or years, or it may never produce symptoms. It is usually an occupational lung disease, typically from years of dust exposure during work i] textile milling; shipbuilding, ship repairing, and/or shipbreaking; sandblasting; industrial tasks; rock drilling (subways or building pilings);or agriculture.is one of the most common occupational diseases in the world. Depending upon the type of dust, the disease is given different names: Coalworker's pneumoconiosis (also known as coal miner's lung, black lung or anthracosis) – coal, carbon Aluminosis – Aluminium Asbestosis – asbestos Silicosis (also known as "grinder's disease" or Potter's rot) – crystalline silica dust Bauxite fibrosis – bauxite Berylliosis – beryllium Siderosis – iron Byssinosis – Byssinosis is caused by cotton dust inhalation and typically demonstrates a different pattern of lung abnormalities than most other pneumoconiosis. Chalicosis – fine dust from stonecutting Silicosiderosis (also sometimes called iron miner's lung)– mixed dust containing silica and iron Labrador lung (found in miners in Labrador, Canada) – mixed dust containing iron, silica and anthophyllite, a type of asbestos Stannosis – tin oxide Talcosis – talc Baritosis - a benign type of pneumoconiosis caused by barium inhalation; it typically causes little or no overgrowth, hardening, and/or fibrosis. Mixed-dust pneumoconiosis The prevalence as of 2021 of pneumoconiosis is around 527,500 cases, with over 60,000 new patients reported globally in 2017. Prevalence has trended somewhat downward since 2015.The mortality of pneumoconiosis patients remained at a high level in recent years, with over 21,000 deaths each year since 2015. It is likely that pneumoconiosis is under-diagnosed and under-reported, especially in countries without highly developed healthcare systems. #Pneumoconiosis #occupationaldisease #psm
