英语百科

Coalworker's pneumoconiosis

(重定向自Black Lung Disease)
A miner at the Black Lung Laboratory in the Appalachian Regional Hospital in Beckley, West Virginia.

Coal workers' pneumoconiosis (CWP), also known as black lung disease or black lung, is caused by long exposure to coal dust. It is common in coal miners and others who work with coal. It is similar to both silicosis from inhaling silica dust, and to the long-term effects of tobacco smoking. Inhaled coal dust progressively builds up in the lungs and is unable to be removed by the body; this leads to inflammation, fibrosis, and in worse cases, necrosis.
