Bladder cancer and occupational exposures.

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Work, Environment & Health, 1994
A hospital-based case-referent study was carried out in Lyon with the purpose of generating hypotheses about the role of occupational exposures to 320 compounds in bladder carcinogenesis.Job histories were obtained by questionnaire for 116 cases and 232 reference patients with diseases other than cancer (one referent from the same hospital ward and one

An Optoelectrically Switched, Dual‐Mode Neuromorphic Sensor for Transient and Accumulative Gas Detection

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A transistor‐type carbon nanotube gas sensor with dual‐mode detection capability has been proposed. By simply adjusting the gate voltage and UV illumination, this sensor enables both real‐time detection and accumulation‐based sensing of toxic gases within a single device, providing a compact and adaptable platform for environmental monitoring ...
