“…It is worth noting that exposure to crystalline silica is prevalent among coal miners. 31 Recent studies in the United States, 3 China, 32 34 Several cohort studies reported the elevated prevalence of lung cancer and chronic cardiopulmonary obstructive diseases among coal miners. 35 In earlier studies, based on the NHIS data, we found significantly increased odds of chronic diseases including hypertension, heart disease, and diabetes among ex-miners.…”

“…It is worth noting that exposure to crystalline silica is prevalent among coal miners. 31 Recent studies in the United States, 3 China, 32 and Australia 33 highlighted the coexistence of silicosis and CWP among coal miners, underscoring the need for continuous surveillance of respirable silica dust exposure levels among coal miners.…”

“… 20 It has been reported that it may be due to the genetic factors that play an indispensable role in the occurrence and development of COPD. 21 With the development of molecular biology, many genetic polymorphisms associated with lung function have been reported, such as HLA-DQB1-rs9273410, 22 TNF-A gene-308 G/A polymorphism, 23 ADRB2-rs12654778 24 and SREK1-rs74794265. 25 However, limited by race and sample size, only a small proportion of the population’s susceptibility to COPD can be explained.…”

“…TNF-α and IL-6 are a proinflammatory cytokines, important in the onset of inflammation, development, and progression of pulmonary fibrosis, and associated with the progression of pneumoconiosis in inflammation caused by mine dusts. Papers indicate that the high levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α and others is an increased risk of pneumoconiosis progression in mine workers, even in retired years (20)(21)(22)(23).…”
