Article Synopsis
- Whole-body vibrations can negatively impact health, particularly causing issues like low-back pain and herniated discs.
- The study uses Probit equations to link daily vibration exposure and Vibration Dose Value to the percentage of the population affected by these health issues.
- The researchers recommend new limit values for vibration exposure that better reflect the findings from their analysis and existing literature.

Article Synopsis
- The work aims to establish equations connecting exposure time to solar radiation, the ultraviolet index (UVI), and their effects on vitamin D synthesis and sunburns.
- It introduces PROBIT equations to predict how much vitamin D various skin types (I to IV) can produce based on repeated sun exposure and protective measures.
- The findings suggest that balancing skin exposure can help achieve required vitamin D levels of 2000 IU or more while minimizing the risk of sunburn, particularly by adjusting the area of skin that is exposed.
