The Self-sustained High temperature Synthesis (SHS) technology as novel approach in the management of asbestos waste
…experimented in chrysotile breakdown. By means of two reactions such as Mg3Si2O5(OH)4 + Fe2O3 + 3 Mg and 2Mg3Si2O5(OH)4 + Fe3O4 + 4 Mg the chrysotile was completely converted into forsterite-rich olivine. Different mixtures of…

Toxic epidermal necrolysis related to Cisplatin and pemetrexed for metastatic non-small cell lung cancer
Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) is an uncommon but life-threatening adverse drug reaction. Pemetrexed is a multitargeted antifolate. It was first used in combination with cisplatin as a front-line treatment for malignant pleural mesothelioma. The…

Secondary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy caused by non-pleural or pulmonary tumors
Hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (HOA) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome characterized by digital clubbing, periosteal reaction, polyarthralgia, arthritis, and synovitis. Herein, we report a case series of patients with secondary HOA caused by non-pleural or pulmonary tumors…

BAP1 Immunohistochemistry and p16 FISH in the Diagnosis of Sarcomatous and Desmoplastic Mesotheliomas
…help diagnose sarcomatous and desmoplastic mesotheliomas. These tumors can be hard to distinguish from organizing pleuritis, a benign reaction of the pleura. The authors tested tissue from 20 such pleural mesotheliomas, from 18 men and 2…

Effect of secondary phase formation on the carbonation of olivine
…reactors. Altering the reaction conditions changed the Mg-carbonate morphology. We propose that this corresponded to changes in the ability of the system to precipitate hydromagnesite or magnesite. During high-temperature reactions (200 degrees C), an…

Chemical elimination of the harmful properties of asbestos from military facilities
…phosphoric acid. The process proved very effective when the phosphoric acid concentration was 30%, the temperature was 90°C and the reaction time 60min. Contrary to the common asbestos treatment method that consists of landfilling, the proposed…

Pemetrexed-induced painful erythematous nodules in both legs in a patient with recurrent mesothelioma
…supported considering the reaction a drug-induced hypersensitivity. They reported her as the first patient described with such lesions while receiving pemetrexed for mesothelioma, adding a nodular form to the known skin reactions to this drug…

Oxidative effects of lungs in Wistar rats caused by long-term exposure to four kinds of China representative chrysotile
…or 12 months. The lungs showed inflammation at 3 months, a fibrotic reaction at 6 months and severe fibrosis at 12 months. Markers of cell damage in lung washing fluid rose in exposed groups. In the…

CAR T-cell therapy for lung cancer and malignant pleural mesothelioma
…The review also described earlier studies. One was a University of Pennsylvania trial that treated four patients; one patient had a serious anaphylactic reaction. Others were the authors' own mouse experiments, in which giving mesothelin-targeted…

Physiological adaptations to serpentinization in the Samail Ophiolite, Oman
…Water pH ranged from 7.6 to 11.3; the authors used pH as a rough guide to how far a rock-water reaction called serpentinization had progressed. They measured water chemistry and sequenced microbial DNA…

New detoxification processes for asbestos fibers in the environment
…Val Malenco fibers into non-fibrous debris. Chrysotile's crystal and spectral signatures disappeared, and magnesium oxalate was the only crystalline reaction product detected, apart from reactor steel debris. Treated Balangero fibers still showed serpentine features…

Positive FDG-PET/CT of the pleura twenty years after talc pleurodesis: three cases of benign talcoma
…This inflammatory reaction could decrease with time, as in other inflammatory processes. Since talc is not metabolized by the body, the FDG-PET scan can remain positive, most likely because of a foreign-body granulomatous reaction…

Potassium octatitanate fibers (TISMO) induce pleural mesothelial cell reactions with iron accumulation in female A/J mice
…to assess responses. Only the fiber-shaped TISMO, morphologically similar to asbestos, induced a severe reaction of the pleura. A number of TISMO fibers were observed in the alveoli, indicating penetration through the pleura. Following Berlin…
