Intersoftware variability in SPECT quality control: A technical note on analytical discrepancies and compliance decisions

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Background Quality control (QC) is essential for ensuring the diagnostic reliability of Single‐Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) systems. However, the reliance on third‐party software for analyzing QC metrics introduces a potential source of variability that is not yet standardized.

Silicosis, Sarcoidosis, and Silicosarcoidosis Are Overlapping Diagnoses and Difficult to Differentiate

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, Volume 69, Issue 5, Page 313-322, May 2026.
ABSTRACT We evaluated 12 workers with documented exposure to respirable crystalline silica who were referred to a tertiary care center due to clinical suspicion of silicosis, sarcoidosis, or silicosarcoidosis. Although silica exposure is a well‐established risk factor for silicosis and has been associated with autoimmune diseases, mycobacterial ...

Inflation, Race, and Legislation—The Erosion in the Real Value of Monetary Compensation for Miners' Occupational Lung Disease in South Africa, 1973–2024

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, Volume 69, Issue 5, Page 335-344, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background For much of the 20th century, the South African mining industry had a statutory compensation system for pneumoconiosis and tuberculosis characterized by gross racial inequality. This study examines the impact of inflation over the period 1973–2024 on the real value of miners' lung disease compensation, including the effect of the ...

Synergistic Enhancement of Modified‐PVDF Humidity Sensitivity via Chemical Adsorption‐Ionic Conductivity and its Application in Intelligent Powered Air‐Purifying Respirator

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, Volume 9, Issue 3, May 2026.
The study developed a PVDF/SiO2 humidity sensor with superhydrophobic properties and integrated the humidity sensor into the intelligent powered air‐purifying respirator (IPAPR) for breath monitoring. Coupled with the Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) machine learning prediction algorithm, it enables feedforward control of the fan to achieve respiratory ...

Return to baseline arsenic concentrations after 1 year on gluten‐free diet in children with celiac disease: A prospective cohort study

JPGN Reports, Volume 7, Issue 2, Page 315-322, May 2026.
Abstract Objectives Lifelong adherence to a gluten‐free diet (GFD) is the primary treatment for celiac disease (CeD). Concerns have been raised about increased exposure to contaminants in a GFD because rice, which naturally bioaccumulates arsenic and other environmental contaminants, is commonly used as a substitute for gluten.
