Verification of the applicability of the RAD7 radon monitor to the solid radon source exhalation reference model

Nuclear Engineering and Technology
The RAD7 radon monitor, based on the electrostatic collection method, is sensitive to humidity during measurements, necessitating the use of a desiccant to maintain the relative humidity in its built-in chamber less than 10 %.

Sargassum Lung Syndrome: Air Flow Obstruction and Bronchial Inflammation Are Observed After Prolonged Exposure to Sargassum Gas Emissions in the Eastern Caribbean

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sargassum inundation of Caribbean and American shorelines is a growing environmental hazard. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and ammonia (NH3) produced by decomposing Sargassum could be involved in airway obstruction and bronchial inflammation. The study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of exposure to H2S and NH3 gases emitted during Sargassum ...

Diagnostic antibodies at an inflection point: From discovery platforms to design‐oriented engineering

VIEW, EarlyView.
This study systematically organizes the evolution of diagnostic antibodies from discovery platforms to design‐oriented engineering and analyzes the strengths and limitations of each approach. Meanwhile, it provides a critical, literature‐driven synthesis of current challenges, proposing integrated strategies for assay‐aware and function‐driven antibody

The effect of higher versus lower wattage e‐cigarettes on smoking: A randomized controlled trial

Addiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims To assess whether higher wattage e‐cigarettes (HWe), with improved nicotine delivery, enhance complete substitution compared with lower wattage e‐cigarettes (LWe) and whether complete switching lowers exposure to a cigarette‐derived lung carcinogen, using urinary 4‐(methylnitrosamino)‐1‐(3‐pyridyl)‐1‐butanol (NNAL) as a biomarker.

Edaphic and meteorological parameters as determinants of radon exhalation and its environmental implication in Peruvian agroecosystems

Scientific Reports
Radon exhalation is a natural process by which atoms of the radioactive gas radon diffuse in the soil and then exhale to an indoor and/or outdoor environment.

Cost‐effectiveness of in‐hospital motivational smoking cessation counselling and proactive referral to community‐based follow‐up

Addiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aim In a randomised open‐label trial among hospitalised patients with atherosclerotic vascular disease, motivational smoking cessation counselling with proactive referral to community‐based follow‐up was more effective than brief cessation advice and written information, with 6‐month continuous abstinence rates of 49.5% vs. 24.5%
