Radiotherapy and Cardiovascular Disease Survival Risk in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Population-Based Study From the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Database. [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Med
ABSTRACT Background It is well known that radiotherapy increases the cardiovascular risk of cancer patients, but there are few large‐sample studies with cardiovasular‐specific death as the endpoint in lung cancer patients. Methods Patients aged ≥ 18 years diagnosed with non‐small cell lung cancer were retrospectively enrolled from the Surveillance ...

Uptake of caesium and strontium radioisotopes by natural zeolites from Mongolia

open access: yesMicroporous and Mesoporous Materials, 2006
Mongolian clinoptilolite-rich tuffs were examined for their ability to take up 137-Cs and 90-Sr/90-Y in the presence of competing cations (Na+, K+, Cs+, Ca2+, Mg2+, Sr2+), as nitrate salts, in the concentration range 10-1-10-3 M. Experiments were carried out by the batch technique and expressed as distribution coefficients.

Timing Is Everything: The Effect of Exposure to Pollution on Wildlife Gut Microbiota Is Contingent on Season. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Ecol
ABSTRACT Exposure to environmental pollutants can disrupt the gut microbiota, but how pollutants impact natural, seasonal changes in wildlife gut microbiota remains unknown. We quantified how exposure to radionuclides affected temporal changes in the gut microbiota of bank voles (Clethrionomys glareolus) inhabiting the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone (CEZ ...

Treatment Technology of Hazardous Water Contaminated with Radioisotopes with Paper Sludge Ash-Based Geopolymer—Stabilization of Immobilization of Strontium and Cesium by Mixing Seawater [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials, 2018
Long-term immobilization ratios of strontium (Sr2+) and cesium (Cs+) in paper sludge ash-based geopolymer (PS-GP) were investigated in one year. PS-GP paste specimens were prepared in the conditions of 20 °C and 100% R.H., using two kinds of paper sludge ash (PS-ash). Two kinds of alkaline solution were used in the PS-GP as activator.
