The resistance of the Figaro Taguchi Gas Sensor (TGS) decreases when exposed to reducing gas enhancements. TGS gas response can be characterized by comparing measured resistance to a reference resistance, representative of sampling in identical environmental conditions but with no reducing gas enhancement. Thus, this resistance ratio (RR) allows for characterization of reducing gas response, independent of other environmental effects.

- The study investigates the potential health effects of radon exposure beyond lung cancer, analyzing a large body of literature from various sources.
- Researchers conducted a meta-analysis of 129 studies, focusing on different populations, including mine workers, children, and adults, to assess associations between radon exposure and various health outcomes.
- While most health outcomes showed no significant links to radon exposure, there were borderline positive associations with specific cancers, such as lymphohematological cancer in children and malignant melanoma in adults.
Background: Tulisokibart is a tumor necrosis factor-like cytokine 1A (TL1A) monoclonal antibody in development for the treatment of moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis. A genetic-based diagnostic test was designed to identify patients with an increased likelihood of response.
Methods: We randomly assigned patients with glucocorticoid dependence or failure of conventional or advanced therapies for ulcerative colitis to receive intravenous tulisokibart (1000 mg on day 1 and 500 mg at weeks 2, 6, and 10) or placebo.
The results of using non-transecting anastomotic urethroplasty in men with bulbous urethral strictures are presented in the review. A total of 25 original publications were found, including 20 foreign and 5 Russian articles. The studies included from 1 to 358 patients who underwent anastomotic urethroplasty without transection of the corpus spongiosum (average number of patients in a study was 54).

The goals of environmental health research projects are diverse, as are the methods used to reach these goals. Opportunities for greater implication of the civil society and related challenges differ at each step of such projects.
