Introduction: Silica is the most abundant mineral in the Earth's crust and its use is wide and diverse. Despite its ancient use, exposure to silica dust is persistent and a risk factor for several diseases, the most prevalent and with the highest morbidity and mortality being silicosis, the most prevalent pneumoconiosis in Brazil and worldwide. Silicosis is an irreversible and progressive…
It is estimated that 1.1 billion people use smoked tobacco in the world, consuming 6 trillion cigarettes / year (WHO, 2011). Active and environmental smoking caused 7 million deaths in 2010 (GBD, Lancet 2016).
