Radiation Exposure and Functional Gastrointestinal Disease

چکیده
tissues. Because of these facts and ethical issues, it is impossible to study the effect of radiation on human health. Most human studies related to radiation exposure were based on several historical event in the 21 century such as the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in World War II and the Chernobyl disaster. From these events, although exact doses are unknown, most people believe that radiation exposure is harmful to the human body. The author evaluated the psychological stress level and established that a high stress level was related to FD. Although there was no statistical significance among groups, the FD and IBS groups included more shift workers who slept poorly and engaged in less regular exercise and an inferior diet than the average study subjects. This finding suggests that psychological stress and lifestyle are more important than radiation exposure for subjects with FD and IBS with acceptable doses of radiation exposure. Fortunately (but unfortunately for the investigator), most countries strictly control radiation exposure. As a result, the maximum dose of radiation exposure cannot induce any physiologic damage to our body. As we saw in the results and conclusion, it is almost impossible to obtain positive findings (results) or obvious changes in the gastrointestinal system induced by radiation exposure in well-controlled conditions. Perhaps a much longer follow-up period is required. Therefore, in practice, these kinds of studies have an unavoidable fatal limitation. Even if it showed a negative conclusion, the theme of this study was never investigated before, so it was unique and valuable. Based on this study, I carefully propose a subsequent study with another high radiation exposure group such as health-screening examinees Radiation Exposure and Functional Gastrointestinal Disease

Background: Although ionizing radiation is a risk factor, it is a therapeutic agent for cancer. Objectives: The protective and defensive effect of L-Carnitine and vitamin E on gastrointestinal tract organs (liver, spleen and intestine) post whole body gamma irradiation exposure.

متن کاملRadioprotection by tempol: Studies on tissue antioxidant levels, hematopoietic and gastrointestinal systems, in mice whole body exposed to sub- lethal doses of gamma radiation
Background: Ionizing radiation induces the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which play an important causative role in cell death. Wholebody exposure of mice to gamma radiation leads to diminution of tissue antioxidant defense systems increases the peroxidative damage to membrane lipids and damages the haematopoietic and gastrointestinal systems. Tempol (TPL), a cell membranep...
متن کاملAlzheimer ’s Disease: Possible Mechanisms Behind Neurohormesis Induced by Exposure to Low Doses of Ionizing Radiation
In 2016, scientists reported that human exposure to low doses of ionizing radiation (CT scans of the brain) might relieve symptoms of both Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson disease (PD). The findings were unbelievable for those who were not familiar with neurohormesis. X-ray stimulation of the patient’s adaptive protection systems against neurodegenerative diseases was the mechanism pr...

Exposure to Mobile Phone Radiation Opens New Horizons in Alzheimer’s Disease Treatment
Alzheimer’s disease, the most common type of dementia and a progressive neurode-generative disease, occurs when the nerve cells in the brain die. Although there are medications that can help delay the development of Alzheimer’s disease, there is cur-rently no cure for this disease. Exposure to ionizing and non-ionizing radiation may cause adverse health effects such as cancer. Looking at th...
