We are coming to understand that all of this has significant consequences for human health. Environmental health has been understood as a public health issue in relation to air quality, water quality, and exposure to environmental pollutants that are toxic, carcinogenic, or teratogenic or are chemically bioactive in other ways. Aim: This study investigates the effect of inhaling cement particles on some coagulation profiles among the brick layers and block makers in Owo, Ondo State. Method: This was cross-sectional descriptive and analysis of 50 brick layers and block makers together with 50 non brick layers nor block makers that serve as controls. Results:  The results from the study shows a statistically significant increase in platelet count (p&lt;0.05) when compared to the control, while a statistically significant reduced time of PT and APTT were recorded (p&lt;0.05). The is no statistically significant results when the years of exposure were considered as shown in table 2 (p&gt;0.05)Conclusion: The results of this work shows that exposure to cement particles exposes the workers to hypercoagulability which is a tendency to thrombosis and thromboembolism and can also leads to cardiovascular disease.</Abstract><CompanyAddress/><CompanyPhone/><CompanyFax/><CompanyEmail/></CoverPageProperties>
