Hormesis as a biological hypothesis.
A comprehensive effort was undertaken to identify articles demonstrating chemical hormesis. Nearly 4000 potentially relevant articles were retrieved from preliminary computer database searches by using various key word descriptors and extensive cross-referencing. A priori evaluation criteria were established including study design features (e.g., number of doses, dose range), statistical analys...
متن کاملRadiation hormesis: its historical foundations as a biological hypothesis.
This paper represents the first systematic effort to describe the historical foundations of radiation hormesis. Spanning the years from 1898 to the early 1940's the paper constructs and assesses the early history of such research and evaluates how advances in related scientific fields affected the course of hormetic related research. The present effort was designed to not only address this gap ...
متن کاملWeight-matrix structured regularization provides optimal generalized least-squares estimate in diffuse optical tomography.
Diffuse optical tomography (DOT) involves estimation of tissue optical properties using noninvasive boundary measurements. The image reconstruction procedure is a nonlinear, ill-posed, and ill-determined problem, so overcoming these difficulties requires regularization of the solution. While the methods developed for solving the DOT image reconstruction procedure have a long history, there is l...
متن کاملa generalized plasticity constitutive model for sand-gravel mixtures
this paper presents a model for prediction of the mechanical behavior of sand-gravel mixtures using generalized plasticity and critical state concepts. proposed model is based on the difference between critical state lines of sand and sand-gravel mixture in e-lnp' plane. a generalized plasticity model is considered as the base model for sandy soil. its state parameter, dilation rate and ha...
متن کاملHormesis [biological effects of low level exposures (BELLE)] and dermatology.
Hormesis, or biological effects of low level exposures (BELLE), is characterized by nonmonotonic dose response which is biphasic, displaying opposite effects at low and high dose. Its occurrence has been documented across a broad range of biological models and diverse type of exposure. Since hormesis appears to be a relatively common phenomenon in many areas, the objective of this review is to ...
