The ARRDIA project, articulated in 3 different tranches from 2020 to 2025, concerns the study of early tumour markers in workers and population of particular industrial areas of Sardinia, with particular reference to pleuropulmonary pathologies resulting from asbestos dust of industrial nature.
The project aims to develop innovative non-invasive methods to detect and monitor the tumours under study. In particular, the research aims at detecting MicroRNAs in the breath and plasma of ex-exposed people and comparison groups, in order to be able to intervene at an early stage and treat possible pathologies in a timely manner.
