Assessment of the knowledge of non-radiological physicians concerning radiation exposure during radiological procedures on the thorax. 124 non-radiological physicians from the departments of surgery, internal medicine, anesthesiology, and neurology at a university hospital were questioned during a four-week ...
IN THE JULY 2005 ISSUE OF Engineers Australia, an article by Kininmonth, Fox, and Evans (hereafter referred to as KFE) was published which questioned mainstream climate change assumptions, including the assumption that humans have contributed to the warming we have observed over the past century....
GSM radiocellular telephones do not disturb the secretion of antepituitary hormones in humans. It is known that the endocrine system of experimental animals is susceptible to perturbation by radiofrequency (RF) radiation. Because of the recent intere... R De Seze,P Fabbro‐Peray,L Miro - 《...
In comparison with humans, apes have a relatively easy birth pattern that does not require rotation of the baby thanks to the longitudinally oval shape of the birth canal both at its inlet and the outlet. “For giving birth, it would be much easier to have a uniformly shaped birth canal ...
“We can now detect these loops like humans while doing it in a fraction of the time on a standard home computer,” saidKevin Field, Oak Ridge scientist. Morgan and Field are working to expand on their success by teaching a new neural network to recognize different kinds of radiatio...
Space travel poses an enormous challenge on the human body; microgravity, ionizing radiation, absence of circadian rhythm, confinement and isolation are just some of the features associated with it. Obviously, all of the latter can have an impact on human physiology and even induce detrimental chan...
aA report widely circulated among the public says that up to now scientists do not really know enough to guarantee there are no ill-effects on humans from electromagnetic radiation. According to Robert Bell, there are 3.3 million mobile phones in Australia alone and they are increasing by 2,000...
Most humans have depended on sun for their vitamin D requirement. Skin pigment, sunscreen use, aging, time of day, season and latitude dramatically affect previtamin D_3 synthesis. Vitamin D deficiency was thought to have been conquered, but it is now recognized that more than 50% of the ...
Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) alone or in combination with radiation therapy or other drugs is increasingly used for the treatment of localized, high-risk, or biochemical relapse of prostate cancer (PC). Bone mineral density (BMD) loss is rapid during the first year of ADT; up to 4.6%...
PSA for outcome prediction and posttreatment evaluation following radiation for prostate cancer: Do we know how to use it? Pretreatment prostate-specific antigen (PSA) has been shown to be a powerful predictor of expected outcome after radiation for prostate cancer. Additional ... DA Kuban,AM El...
