Ionizing Radiation and Life [PDF]
Ionizing radiation is a ubiquitous feature of the Cosmos, from exogenous cosmic rays (CR) to the intrinsic mineral radioactivity of a habitable world, and its influences on the emergence and persistence of life are wide-ranging and profound. Much attention has already been focused on the deleterious effects of ionizing radiation on organisms and the ...

Analyzing Serum Level Changes in Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate, Dihydrotestosterone, Progesterone, and Prolactin after Radioactive Iodine Treatment for Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma [PDF]
Introduction: Effective treatment of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is total thyroidectomy which is followed by radioactive iodine therapy (RIT) to ablate pathologic thyroid remnants and treat metastatic tumors.
