Dose-response relationships for carcinogens: a review.
We review the experimental evidence for various shapes of dose-response relationships for carcinogens and summarize those experiments that give the most information on relatively low doses. A brief review of some models is given to illustrate the shapes of dose-response curve expected from them. Our major interest is in the use of dose-response relationships to estimate risks to humans at low d...
متن کاملA review of uncertainties in radiotherapy dose reconstruction and their impacts on dose-response relationships.
Proper understanding of the risk of radiation-induced late effects for patients receiving external photon beam radiotherapy requires the determination of reliable dose-response relationships. Although significant efforts have been devoted to improving dose estimates for the study of late effects, the most often questioned explanatory variable is still the dose. In this work, based on a literatu...
متن کاملDose - response relationships . An overview , a
Taking as a starting point a set of simple quantitative hypotheses regarding the possible relationships between cell receptors and effector molecules, a statistical algorithm or generative model is developed that simulates different types of dose-response profiles and whose results are used in two ways, both subject to empirical verification. In the first of these, the suitability of several co...
متن کاملModeling of dose-response relationships.
The main dose-response models for chronic toxicity are considered. For dichotomous response, the log probit, multi-hit, and multistage models are presented. For time-to-occurrence response, the log-normal and three variations of multistage models are presented. Finally, the Cornfield hockey-stick model is considered, and, for low-dose extrapolation, it is suggested that response be taken to be ...
متن کاملInfluenza Antigen Dose and Antibody Response Relationships.
where K1 and n are constants, C is the concentration of antigen and Ab is the antibody response. He found that aqueous influenza antigens, given relations (Stille, Woolridge, and Gundelfinger, J. Lab. Clin. Med., 53, 751, 1959). The least square line, fitted to the data for average change in titer tubes (or log antibody response) and log dose (in chick-cell agglutinating units) of table 1 gives...
