The eyes of a prospective cohort 8,607 Chernobyl clean-up workers (liquidators) were assessed for cataract at 12 and 14 years after exposure. prevalence strictly age-related cataracts was low, as expected (only 3.9% had nuclear either examination), since 90% the younger than 55 age first examination. However, posterior subcapsular or cortical characteristic radiation exposure present in 25% subjects. data Stage 1 cataracts, specifically revealed significant dose response. When various end...
Risks of most types leukemia from exposure to acute high doses ionizing radiation are well known, but risks associated with protracted exposures, as associations between and chronic lymphocytic (CLL), not clear.
Genomics of radiation-induced damage The potential adverse effects exposures to radioactivity from nuclear accidents can include acute consequences such as radiation sickness, well long-term sequelae increased risk cancer. There have been a few studies examining transgenerational risks exposure but the results inconclusive. Morton et al. analyzed papillary thyroid tumors, normal tissue, and blood hundreds survivors Chernobyl accident compared them against those unexposed patients. findings...

In 2011, the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) recommended reducing occupational equivalent dose limit for lens of eye from 150 mSv/year to 20 mSv/year, averaged over five years, with no single year exceeding 50 mSv. With this recommendation, several important assumptions were made, such as lack rate effect, classification cataracts a tissue reaction threshold at 0.5 Gy, and progression minor opacities into vision-impairing cataracts. However, although new thresholds...

Between 1986 and 1990, several hundred thousand workers, called "liquidators" or "clean-up workers," took part in decontamination recovery activities within the 30-km zone around Chernobyl nuclear power plant Ukraine, where a major accident occurred April 1986. The liquidators were mainly exposed to external ionizing radiation levels that depended primarily on their work locations time after when was performed. Because individual doses often monitored inadequately not at all for majority of...
Ionizing radiation is a well‐recognized risk factor for the development of breast cancer. However, it unknown whether radiation‐specific molecular oncogenic mechanisms exist. We investigated post‐Chernobyl cancers from radiation‐exposed female clean‐up workers and nonexposed controls changes. Radiation‐associated alterations identified in discovery cohort ( n = 38) were subsequently validated second 39). Increased expression hsa‐miR‐26b‐5p was associated with exposure both cohorts. Moreover,...
