introduction: gail model is one of the most important models for the evaluation of breast cancer risk between us white females. according to genetic diversity, there is a possibility of affecting the efficiency of the gail model in risk assessment of breast cancer among iranian populations. in this study, the gail model efficiency in specifying the risk of breast cancer in iranian population wa...

background development of complications during gynecologic laparoscopic surgery depends on many factors such as history of previous laparotomies. this factor usually increases the veres and first trocar complications. objectives in this study, we compared all operative complications between the patients with and without previous abdominal surgery. patients and methods all operative complication...

A Human Health Risk Assessment (HHRA) was undertaken for a proposed park development "River Landing", to be constructed along the north bank of the South Saskatchewan River in the City of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. The purpose of the HHRA was to determine whether chemical constituents identified at the site, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), petroleum hydrocarbons (PHCs),...

Health risk assessments and ecological risk assessments of contaminated environments are typically conducted by different groups working largely independendy. This results in inefficiencies and, more importantly, in assessments that are less defensible than would otherwise be possible. I would like to argue for integration of health and ecological risk assessment by presenting some of the issue...

Marine pollution is a major threat to human and environmental health. Given the complexity of function of marine and coastal ecosystems, it is unlikely that a balanced view of the nature and extent of risk will easily be achieved if human and environmental risk assessments continue to be conducted in isolation. Here, the integration of assessment protocols is advocated as a holistic means of im...

The objective of the paper is to review the effects of the implementation of the Resident Assessment Instrument (RAI) on process measures (quality of care plans and staff satisfaction) and outcome measures (health problems and quality of life) in nursing homes. All available publications on the effects of the RAI were included in the review. The most positive effects of the RAI were found in im...
