We included all admissions 鈮 18 years old with a principal diagnosis of acute DHF with and without history of RT for mediastinal cancer using International Classification of Diseases Tenth Revision (ICD-10) codes. Propensity score matching was performed to balance hospital characteristics, patient ...
For example, physical factors, such as ionizing radiation exposure11; geographic factors, such as living in a volcanic environment12; and a cold climate14 have been reported to be risk factors for thyroid cancer. However, only a few reports support the potential association between air pollution ...
To ensure that we did not include patients who may have had occult thyroid cancer that had gone undiagnosed prior to the study period, we excluded patients with a past medical history of thyroid disorders (ICD-10 E07.9), thyroid cancer (ICD-10 C73), or thyroid nodules (ICD-10 E04.1) (...
Awareness of the human health impacts of exposure to air pollution is growing rapidly. For example, it has become evident that the adverse health effects of air pollution are more pronounced in disadvantaged populations. Policymakers in many jurisdictions have responded to this evidence by enacting i...
Both cultivars demonstrated a predictable response model to photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), temperature (T), and the relative water content of the substrate (rSWC), which was established.

Methods We conducted two designs of twin studies to improve confounder control: A cohort study of 2,367 randomly selected twins and a case-control study of 316 twins born in the period 1960–1996. Cancer diagnoses (ICD- 10) were retrieved from the Danish Cancer Registry and tattoo ink ...
Exposure to per concentration increased unit of the air pollutant of interest in the same population • Increment for hazard ratio not given Outcome • Health outcomes selected in relation to long-term exposure include (ICD 10 codes, version 2016 in brackets): all cause (A00-Z99); respirato...
Before ICD-10, MDS and MPD were not available diagnostic categories and many of our cases occurred before this, particularly in the older UK study; the more recent Australian cases were more likely to have been correctly identified. In contrast to the patterns for MDS (Schnatter et al 2012)...
Poisson regression methods were used to quantify associations between radiation dose and the following mortality outcomes: solid cancer (ICD9 codes 140–199) and leukemia (ICD9 codes 204–208), outcomes of particular interest with regards to ICRP models, and solid cancer excluding lung cancer (ICD...
