Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In its 1990 recommendation regarding occupational exposure during pregnancy, the International Commission on Radiological Protection apparently assumed that the equivalent dose to a pregnant woman's abdomen is reduced by half in traversing the body to the conceptus. This assumption was tested with respect to galactic cosmic radiation, the principal ionizing radiation to which aircrews are exposed. We calculated the equivalent dose that would be received at depths of 0, 5, 10, and 15 centimeters in a 30-centimeter thick, soft-tissue slab phantom, at several locations in the atmosphere and on two air carrier flights, and found that the dose was almost the same at all the tissue depths studied. Thus, the assumption of considerable shielding of the conceptus by the woman's body is not valid with respect to galactic cosmic radiation. The effective dose of galactic radiation to the mother was found to be a good estimate of the equivalent dose to the conceptus.

Book Synopsis Comparison of Codes Assessing Radiation Exposure of Aircraft Crew Due to Galactic Cosmic Radiation by : J.F. Bottollier-Depois
Download or read book Comparison of Codes Assessing Radiation Exposure of Aircraft Crew Due to Galactic Cosmic Radiation written by J.F. Bottollier-Depois and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The aim of this report is to compare the doses and dose rates calculated by various codes assessing radiation exposure of aircraft crew due to cosmic radiation. Some of the codes are used routinely for radiation protection purposes while others are purely for scientific use. The calculations were done using a set of representative, real flight routes around the globe. The results are presented in an anonymous way. This comparison is of major importance since a real determination of effective dose is not possible and, therefore, the different methods used to evaluate effective doses can be compared. Eleven codes have been used in this comparison exercise organised by EURADOS on harmonization of aircrew dosimetry practices in European countries. Some of these codes are based on simulations of the secondary field of cosmic radiation by Monte Carlo techniques; others use analytical solutions of the problem, while still others are mainly based on a fit to experimental data. The overall agreement between the codes, however, is better than + or - 20 % from the median."--Editor.

Book Synopsis All Shall Hide by : Taylor A. Cisco Jr
Download or read book All Shall Hide written by Taylor A. Cisco Jr and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010-09 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A literal interpretation of Revelation 6:12-17 states survivors from a future great earthquake shall flee to hide in dens And The rocks of mountains. Such behavior is very unusual. Earthquake survivors normally flee to open spaces, away from buildings, To avoid injury from falling debris. All Shall Hide uses the findings from historical, aerospace, astrophysical, geophysical, and medical studies to show why world populations will be frightened into seeking heavily shielded shelters. What is the source of their terror? People suddenly collapsing in public from increased rates of heart failure caused by a great space weather storm. The awesome intensity of its cosmic ray output and harsh variations in the Earth's magnetic field will dwarf the Carrington Event of 1859. All Shall Hide shows the foretold darkening of the Sun to levels beneath global tempest of sunspots shall be the cause the perfect space weather storm. All Shall Hide formed its multidisciplinary, literal interpretation of Apostle John's scripture from the fiery truths of scientific studies. For example, statistically significant correlations between the variations in cosmic ray neutron rates and changes in the rates of death caused by acute myocardial infarction (heart attack), sudden cardiac death, cerebrovascular accident (stroke), or arrhythmia were manifested from collaborative research by Israel, Bulgaria, Lithuania, Azerbaijan, Russia, and Greece. The ability of the Moon to glow in the absence of sunlight was derived from observations and studies of solar particle induced lunar luminescence. The dates of solar blackouts, like the darkness at the crucifixion And The third Persian invasion of Greece, were deduced from trustworthy historical accounts of acute solar darkening events that could not be attributed to solar eclipses and/or clouds. All Shall Hide is a must read for those concerned with strengthening their beliefs in the Holy Bible.

Book Synopsis Environment and Female Reproductive Health by : Huidong Zhang
Download or read book Environment and Female Reproductive Health written by Huidong Zhang and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-02-01 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will focus on the harmful effect of environmental toxins on female reproductive health. Reproduction is the basis of the continuation of human beings, and environment is the basis of human survival. However, environmental pollution has become a potential risk factor for human reproductive health, which not only leads to many chronic diseases, but also causes certain harm to reproductive health. Compared to male reproduction, female reproductive process is more complex, the reproductive system is more fragile, and is more vulnerable to be damaged. The aim of this book is to review the research progress, to address the challenges, and to stimulate the development in the direction of environment and female reproductive health.
Book Synopsis Textbook Of Occupational Medicine Practice (Fourth Edition) by : David Soo Quee Koh
Download or read book Textbook Of Occupational Medicine Practice (Fourth Edition) written by David Soo Quee Koh and published by World Scientific Publishing Company. This book was released on 2017-08-22 with total page 957 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The text is generally very readable, the scientific quality of the content is above reproach, and the content is very comprehensive within the confines of the size of the actual book … In my opinion, the book meets the needs of the varied targeted audience, and I would regard it as good value for money. I would consider the book useful for occupational practitioners particularly those in training who would gain a global perspective on many of the issues of occupational medicine.'Journal of Occupational MedicineThis fourth edition continues to provide a link between occupational health and clinical practice. It covers target organ systems that can be affected by hazardous exposures in workplaces, and it focuses on the clinical presentations, investigations and management of affected individuals. We have retained consideration of some special issues relevant to occupational medicine practice in this new edition.The main emphasis continues to be prevention of disease and early detection of health effects. This edition of the book has been updated to include new materials, topics, and references. We have retained a few of the previous case studies and illustrations, and introduced several new ones. There are new chapters on audit and evidence-based practice and on occupational cancer. We trust that this edition addresses many of the recommendations that were provided by readers of the previous edition.We have again asked international experts to author many of the chapters. Some of the authors are from Asia, and others from the US, UK, the Middle East and Australia. All the authors will have either clinical or academic experience in occupational medicine practice.The book will be of interest to medical practitioners, especially those in primary care and doctors intending to pursue a career in occupational medicine. It would also be relevant for non-medical health and safety professionals wanting to know more about health effects resulting from occupational exposures. Other groups who may find this edition useful as a ready reference are medical students, occupational health nurses, or clinical specialists in fields such as dermatology, respiratory medicine or toxicology. The book is targeted at all those who are interested in the interaction between work and health, and how occupational diseases and work-related disorders may present.Related Link(s)
