Effects of the Interactions between Dust Exposure and Genetic Polymorphisms in Nalp3, Caspase-1, and IL-1β on the Risk of Silicosis: A Case-Control Study.

Effects of the Interactions between Dust Exposure and Genetic Polymorphisms in Nalp3, Caspase-1, and IL-1β on the Risk of Silicosis: A Case-Control Study.

To evaluate the effects of the interactions between polymorphisms in Nalp3, caspase-1, and interleukin(IL)-1β genes and occupational dust exposure on the risk of silicosis.We conducted a population-based case-control study in a large iron mine in China. Between January 2006 and December 2009, we ide...
