Topic #8: Personal Exposure Characteristics Synopsis
نویسنده
چکیده
RAPID Engineering Project #4 (Bracken et al., 1997a) summarized past efforts and developed guidelines for contemporaneous PE monitoring. Guidelines for PE study design provide recommendations for selecting the field characteristics to be measured; selecting appropriate instrumentation; developing a sampling strategy; establishing time-activity record-keeping protocols; and developing plans for data management, data analysis, and documentation of the study's methods and results. Additional discussion and references for topics discussed in this synopsis are available in the RAPID #4 report.

Topic #10: Surrogates for Personal Exposure Synopsis
Risk assessments require knowledge of the exposures of affected populations to a particular agent or agents; i.e., they require an exposure assessment. Such an assessment may be made using one or a combination of three basic tools: surrogates, models, and monitoring (CEQ, 1989). Surrogates are substitutes for the actual agent, and are assumed to reflect actual exposure levels. For a workplace e...

متن کاملProfiling topics on the Web for knowledge discovery
The availability of large-scale data on the Web motivates the development of automatic algorithms to analyze topics and to identify relationships between topics. Various approaches have been proposed in the literature. Most focus on specific topics, mainly those representing people, with little attention to topics of other kinds. They are also less flexible in how they represent topics. In this...
متن کاملIndividual, Environmental, and Meteorological Predictors of Daily Personal Ultraviolet Radiation Exposure Measurements in a United States Cohort Study
BACKGROUND Individual exposure to ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is challenging to measure, particularly for diseases with substantial latency periods between first exposure and diagnosis of outcome, such as cancer. To guide the choice of surrogates for long-term UVR exposure in epidemiologic studies, we assessed how well stable sun-related individual characteristics and environmental/meteorologic...
متن کاملThe cognitive impact of research synopses on physicians: a prospective observational analysis of evidence-based summaries sent by email.
BACKGROUND Effective information transfer in primary care is becoming more difficult as the volume of medical information expands. Emailed research synopses are expected to raise awareness and thereby permit more effective information retrieval. OBJECTIVE To identify key factors that influence physicians' self-reported cognitive impact of emailed research synopses. METHOD In this prospectiv...
