No. This article didn't really say anything new if you've been keeping up on mp studies over the years, it's a review. It mostly talked about the pervasiveness of mp in the environment, accumulation in animals and humans, and sources. It briefly mentioned autoimmune issues and cancer as effects at the end of the article.
