Occupational 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 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 cancer in France: epidemiology, toxicology, prevention, and compensation.
This article is a description of the current situation in France with regard to occupational cancer: research, prevention, and occupation. Toxicologic experiments are carried out using (italic)in vitro(/italic) and (italic)in vivo(/italic) tests, particularly using transgenic mice. Several epidemiologic studies have been conducted over the last decades: population-based case-control studies; mo...
متن کاملNeeds of occupational exposure sampling strategies for compliance and epidemiology.
Although a great deal of occupational exposure data is collected, it is probably insufficient to truly answer the question of legislative compliance, ill directed in terms of real workplace risks, and is of little subsequent use for epidemiological research. This paper is an attempt to summarise the more important components and requirements of a sampling strategy, and it is therefore aimed at ...
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...
