Abstract – Despite a longstanding recognition that radiological protection is not only matter of science, but also ethics, ICRP publications have rarely addressed the ethical foundations system explicitly. The purpose this publication to describe how Commission has relied on values, either intentionally or indirectly, in developing with objective presenting coherent view ethics part system. In so doing, it helps clarify inherent value judgements made achieving aim as underlined by...
In its recommendations for the protection of people living in long-term contaminated territories after a nuclear accident, International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) emphasizes effectiveness directly involving affected population and local professionals management situation, responsibility authorities at both national levels to create conditions provide means favouring involvement empowerment population. this perspective, ICRP initiated fall 2011 dialogue between...
Abstract A risk indicator that allows for the comparison of risks caused by different factors is highly useful enhancing public understanding. The International Commission on Radiological Protection developed concept “detriment” to quantify radiation-related health effects at low doses. However, detriment specific radiation field and cannot be simply compared with other risks. In this study, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), lifetime incidence risk, mortality due exposure were among 33...
This report updates and consolidates previous recommendations of the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) related to solid waste disposal (ICRP, 1985, 1997b, 1998). The given apply specifically geological long-lived radioactive waste. explains how ICRP system radiological protection described in Publication 103 2007) can be applied context Although is written as a standalone document, not dealt with depth are still valid. 2007 evolves from process-based approach relying...
BACKGROUND Plasma exchange (PE) is the first‐line therapy of acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). Several plasma preparations have been available; their equivalence in terms outcome remains uncertain. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis cases prospectively reported from 2005 to 2010 national registry established by microangiopathies French reference center. analyzed 108 initial episodes idiopathic TTP adults treated with PE, 81 solvent/detergent...
Feedback experiences from Fukushima and Chernobyl situations have clearly shown the importance of involving local stakeholders living in contaminated territories for rehabilitation their daily life. In this context, paper aims to better address role radiological protection experts recovery phase post-nuclear accident situation, mainly relying on analysis initiatives implemented Prefecture following March 2011. first part, highlights various challenges faced by population territories, i.e.,...
The International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) has embarked a process to review and revise the current System of ('the System'). To stimulate discussion, ICRP published two open-access articles: one aspects that might require review, another research improve scientific foundation System. Building these articles, organized Workshop Future as an opportunity engage in revision This digital workshop took place from 14 October-3 November 2021 included 20 live-streamed 43 on-demand...
ETHOS is a pilot research project supported by the radiation protection program of European Commission (DG XII). The provides an alternative approach to rehabilitation living conditions in contaminated territories CIS post-accident context Chernobyl. Initiated at beginning 1996, this 3-y currently being implemented Republic Belarus. involves interdisciplinary team researchers from following institutions: Centre d'etude sur l'Evaluation de la Protection dans le domaine Nucleaire CEPN...
In this study, we aimed to investigate radiation risk perception, mental health, and interest in tritiated water among evacuees from returnees Tomioka town, Japan, as well evaluate the intention return (ITR) living inside outside Fukushima Prefecture. Of 1728 respondents, 318 (18.4%) 1203 (69.6%) participants reported Prefecture, 207 (12.0%) Tomioka. The ITR was not significantly different between those who lived prefecture evacuees. Similarly, there were no significant differences water....
Published data on thrombin generation variables and their correlation with thromboelastometry in the healthy population are scarce. This study aimed at assessing adults its to classical rotational (ROTEM).Thrombin was measured platelet-poor plasma from volunteers using calibrated automated thrombogram (CAT) 1 5 pmol/l tissue factor final concentration. Lag time, peak, time peak endogenous potential (ETP) were analyzed. ROTEM performed without activator (NATEM) for clotting alpha angle, clot...
After a large-scale nuclear accident, local populations face high level of complexity, as their day-to-day life is seriously disrupted by the short and long term consequences event. Affected numerous decisions related to daily trade-offs in order cope with whole range unfamiliar issues associated long-lasting radioactive contamination. This includes choice leave, stay or return contaminated zone. Feedback Chernobyl Fukushima post-accident situations Norway Japan based on results PREPARE...
Abstract Reflecting a change in funding strategies for European research projects, and commitment to the idea of responsible innovation radiological protection (RP), collective institutes universities have developed prospective Strategic Research Agenda (SRA) Social Sciences Humanities (SSH) protection. This is first time such agenda has been proposed. paper identifies six lines interest concern: (1) Effects social, psychological economic aspects on RP behaviour; (2) Holistic approaches...
Abstract Background As a part of the decontamination process after Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident 2011, 1.32 million tonnes tritium-containing water will be discharged from power plant into Pacific Ocean. Although radiobiological impacts treated discharge on public and environment were reported to minimal, Tomioka Okuma locals expressed unease regarding long-term recovery their towns, which are economically dependent agricultural, fishery, tourism sectors. This study presents...
The European project ENGAGE investigated formal or informal demands and expectations for stakeholder engagement in radiological protection, their translation into practices at national local levels. Three contexts were examined detail: nuclear emergency preparedness, response recovery; exposure to indoor radon; medical exposures ionising radiation. Research showed that prescriptions would benefit from acknowledging the normative substantive rationales engagement. It suggests broadening...
The European project CONFIDENCE identified, conceptualised and addressed social uncertainties through a multi-method research approach. highlighted the faced by publics, emergency management actors decision-makers in nuclear emergencies during recovery phase. It showed that is dominated decisions under uncertainties, non-experts face also different than experts, plans need (continuous) reality check sound communication, openness transparency about may contribute to better decisions. suggests...
On 27 November 2021, the non-profit organization (NPO) Fukushima Dialogue held 23rd meeting in Naraha Machi, Prefecture. The theme was “Sharing situation surrounding Daiichi treated water”. It since International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) launched ICRP Prefecture 2011, which NPO took over 2019. Held a hybrid form, it open to public and has gathered up 120 participants. first part devoted presentations related of meeting: technical aspects, testimonies about local...
