Exposure and dose modelling in occupational epidemiology.
Complex and dynamic physiologic processes underlie the exposure-response relations that occupational and environmental epidemiologists study. Simple summary measures of exposure such as the average, cumulative exposure, or duration of exposure, can be applied suitably in exposure-response analyses in many instances. However, there are situations where these metrics may not be directly proportio...
متن کاملOccupational exposure, epidemiology and compensation.
The data summarized in this section are taken mainly from the 2000 Report of the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR), and generally refer to occupational exposures assessed to have been experienced during the earlyand mid-1990s [1]. Occupational exposures in the United Kingdom from 1998 to 2003 have been reviewed recently by the Radiation Protection ...
متن کاملExposure variability: concepts and applications in occupational epidemiology.
BACKGROUND Standard approaches to assessing exposures for epidemiologic studies tend to concentrate resources on obtaining detailed data for each study participant at the expense of characterizing within-person variability. METHODS This paper presents some basic, generalizeable concepts concerning exposure and its variability, describes methods that can be used to analyze, describe, and under...

متن کاملEvaluation of Radiation Exposure Pattern and Radiation Absorbed Dose Resulting from Occupational Exposure of Anesthesiologists to Ionizing Radiation
Introduction: Little information is available concerning the radiation exposure of anesthesiologists, and no such data have previously been collected in Iran. This prospective study was performed to determine the amount of radiation exposure of anesthesiologists for the purpose of assessing whether or not dangerous levels of radiation exposures were being reached, and to identify factors that c...
