high intensity optical radiation can cause damage to the eye and intense radiation in the range of 770-1400 nm can cause thermal retinal damage. in the workplaces where there are high temperature sources, the workers in front of these hot sources without bright light maybe exposed to the intense ir radiation, thus regular measurement of these radiations seems crucial. measurement of ir radiat...
background: unexplained infertility is still a challenging issue as to its causes, appropriate management and treatment. evidence implicates early embryopathy or implantation failure as likely causes. objective: this study aims to investigate the effect of local endometrial injury on pregnancy rate in selected unexplained infertile patients. materials and methods: this was a randomized clinical...
An unqualified answer to the above question is "yes". A qualified response, however, requires that the word, "nonirradiated", be defined. A truly nonirradiated lung represents the pulmonary parenchyma that is not exposed to any type or amount of radiation. Currently, there is sufficient scientific basis to consider that this nonirradiated normal lung parenchyma can suffer injury caused by radia...
This is the second of four articles on the medical aspects of nuclear explosions. Last week described the blast and heat effects and explained that with modern large bombs significant radiation injury was likely to be due to fallout rather than to the radiation emitted by the explosion itself because most people subjected to the extremely short-lived initial radiation would be killed or fatally...
PURPOSE Dose escalation of thoracic radiation can improve the local tumor control and surivival, and is in the meantime limited by the occurrence of radiation-induced lung injury (RILI). This study investigated the clinical and dosimetric factors influencing RILI in lung-cancer patients receiving chemoradiotherapy for better radiation planning. METHODS AND MATERIALS A retrospective analysis w...
BACKGROUND Radiation therapy is generally contraindicated for cancer patients with collagen vascular diseases (CVD) such as scleroderma due to an increased risk of fibrosis. The tight skin (TSK) mouse has skin which, in some respects, mimics that of patients with scleroderma. The skin radiation response of TSK mice has not been previously reported. If TSK mice are shown to have radiation sensit...
The kidneys are the dose-limiting organs for radiotherapy to upper abdominal cancers and during total body irradiation. The incidence of radiotherapy-associated kidney injury is likely underreported owing to its long latency and because the toxicity is often attributed to more common causes of kidney injury. The pathophysiology of radiation injury is poorly understood. Its presentation can be a...
Informal surveys at CME meetings have shown that approximately one-third of patients in the United States receive hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) for delayed radiation injury. More than 600,000 patients receive radiation for malignancy in our country annually, and about one-half will be long-term survivors. Serious radiation complications occur in 5-10% of survivors. A large population of patients is ...
PURPOSE Intestinal toxicity is important in the therapeutic use of radiation as well as in nontherapeutic radiation exposure scenarios. Enteric sensory nerves are critical for mucosal homeostasis and for an appropriate response to injury. This study assessed the role of the two major neuropeptides released by sensory nerves, calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and substance P, in the intesti...
Exposure of skin to solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation induces photo-damage. Ultraviolet B (UVB) is the major component of UV radiation which induces the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and plays an important role in photo-damage. Hydrogen gas reduces ROS and alleviates inflammation. In this study, we sought to demonstrate that hydrogen-rich saline has the effect on skin injuries caus...
