Serum protein fractions in rheumatoid pneumoconiosis without arthritis. (1/4)

Fractionation of the serum proteins by filter-paper electrophoresis in 14 coal-miners who had the characteristic radiological opacities of rheumatoid pneumoconiosis but no evidence of rheumatoid arthritis showed a reduction in the mean level of albumin and increases in the alpha-2 and gamma-globulins compared with the values in non-arthritic miners with simple coal-workers' pneumoconiosis and in normal subjects. The changes were smaller than those found in miners with both rheumatoid arthritis and the radiological appearances of rheumatoid pneumoconiosis (Caplan's syndrome) and the mean levels did not differ significantly from those found in non-arthritic miners with progressive massive fibrosis. It is concluded that estimation of the serum protein fractions, unlike tests for rheumatoid factors, is unlikely to help in the differential diagnosis of unusual opacities seen on chest radiographs of miners without arthritis.  (+info)

Pulmonary function in coal workers with Caplan's syndrome and non-rheumatoid complicated pneumosoniosis. (4/4)

This retrospective study compares the pulmonary function of 24 coal workers with Caplan's syndrome with that of 36 subjects with non-rheumatoid progressive massive fibrosis (PMF). Allowing for differences in radiographical category, age, years worked underground, and smoking, obstruction to air flow as reflected in the one-second forced expiratory volume, the vital capacity, and the ratio of residual volume to total lung capacity, was significantly less in subjects with Caplan's syndrome. No significant differences in transfer factor were found. These findings may be explained by the different pathological features of the two entities. Selection bias does not appear to be responsible for the differences observed between the groups, but studies designed to eliminate this would be desirable.  (+info)

Caplan syndrome, also known as Caplan's syndrome or pneumoconiosis with rheumatoid nodules, is a rare condition characterized by the presence of multiple round, well-circumscribed nodules in the lungs. These nodules are similar to those seen in rheumatoid arthritis and are typically found in individuals who have been exposed to coal dust or other types of mineral dust.

The syndrome was first described in 1953 by Dr. Anthony Caplan, a Welsh physician who observed the association between pneumoconiosis (a lung disease caused by inhaling mineral dust) and rheumatoid nodules in coal miners. The condition is most commonly seen in coal miners, but it has also been reported in other occupations with exposure to mineral dust, such as stone cutters and sandblasters.

Caplan syndrome is thought to occur when the immune system's response to mineral dust exposure triggers an inflammatory reaction that leads to the formation of rheumatoid nodules in the lungs. The presence of these nodules can cause symptoms such as cough, shortness of breath, and chest pain. In severe cases, Caplan syndrome can lead to lung scarring and decreased lung function.

Diagnosis of Caplan syndrome typically involves a combination of medical history, physical examination, imaging studies (such as chest X-rays or CT scans), and laboratory tests (such as blood tests for rheumatoid arthritis). Treatment may include medications to manage the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis and reduce inflammation in the lungs. In some cases, surgery may be necessary to remove severely damaged lung tissue.

A syndrome, in medical terms, is a set of symptoms that collectively indicate or characterize a disease, disorder, or underlying pathological process. It's essentially a collection of signs and/or symptoms that frequently occur together and can suggest a particular cause or condition, even though the exact physiological mechanisms might not be fully understood.

For example, Down syndrome is characterized by specific physical features, cognitive delays, and other developmental issues resulting from an extra copy of chromosome 21. Similarly, metabolic syndromes like diabetes mellitus type 2 involve a group of risk factors such as obesity, high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and abnormal cholesterol or triglyceride levels that collectively increase the risk of heart disease, stroke, and diabetes.

It's important to note that a syndrome is not a specific diagnosis; rather, it's a pattern of symptoms that can help guide further diagnostic evaluation and management.
