Occupational Injuries and Fatalities in Norwegian Fish Farming.
J Agromedicine
January 2025
Department of Fishery and New Biomarine Industry, SINTEF Ocean, Trondheim, Norway.
Objective: People working in the Norwegian fish farming industry work in a high energy environment, where there are many hazards in the daily work. An important part of mitigating hazardous situations is to keep track of the characteristics of the accidents that have already happened and to learn from these, when planning future work. The objective of this study was to strengthen the knowledge of factors and conditions influencing personnel safety in Norwegian fish farming, based on analyses of registered occupational fatalities and injuries.

Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics, National Cancer Institute, NIH, DHHS, 9609 Medical Center Drive, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA.
Objective: Scientific justification of the methodology for calculating radiation internal doses from 137Cs and 134Cs intake for residents of Ukrainian settlements radioactively contaminated as a result of the Chornobyl (Chernobyl) accident in which measurements of incorporated radiocesium isotopes in humans using whole-body counters (WBC) were not carried out.
Materials And Methods: The paper presents a new methodology for reconstructing doses due to internal irradiation from Chornobyl fallout for both surface (in 1986) and root (in 1987-2023) contamination of vegetation with 137Cs and 134Cs and their transfer into the human body. The methodology for calculating the dose due to surface contamination of vegetation was based on the theoretical model of the transfer of radiocesium isotopes through the food chain with further adjustment of this model to the results of WBC measurements carried out between 15 July and 31 December 1986.
STUDY OF DOSE FORMATION FOR THE POPULATION IN RADIOACTIVELY CONTAMINATED AREAS OF ZHYTOMYR REGION BASED ON COMPREHENSIVE RADIATION-HYGIENIC MONITORING.
Probl Radiac Med Radiobiol
December 2024
WHO Country Office in Ukraine, 9B Mykhaila Hrushevskoho Str., Kyiv, 01021, Ukraine.
Objective: the research is to determine the main radiation-hygienic factors influencing the formation of radiation doses among the population of radioactively contaminated territories (RCT) in Zhytomyr region in 2024 and to analyze the dynamics of internal radiation doses based on original experimental studies conducted in reference settlements from 2012 to 2024.
Materials And Methods: In 2024, a comprehensive radiation-hygienic monitoring program was conducted in 11 settlements of Narodychi Territorial Community (TC): the Narodychi and the villages of Selets, Bazar, Rudnya Bazarska, Khrystynivka (Zone 2), Motiyki, Zalissya, Davydky, Radcha, Nova Radcha, and Grezlya (Zone 3). The comprehensive radiation-hygienic monitoring included the following activities: mobile WBC monitoring: 817 measurements (562 adults and 255 children); collection and analysis of food samples: 39 milk samples, 61 potato samples, and 57 samples of wild foods, analyzed for radionuclide content, including 137Cs and 90Sr; assessment of external radiation exposure in these settlements; surveys: 194 individuals were surveyed regarding the consumption volumes of locally produced foods from their own households and purchased foods from commercial networks.
Occupational anaphylaxis: A Position Paper of the German Society of Allergology and Clinical Immunology (DGAKI).
Allergol Select
November 2024
Department of Dermatology and Allergy Biederstein, School of Medicine and Health, Technical University of Munich TUM).
Background: Anaphylaxis is a systemic allergic reaction that is potentially life-threatening. Occupational anaphylaxis is an anaphylaxis that occurs in an occupational context. In this position paper, we propose diagnostic criteria for occupational anaphylaxis and provide an overview of the current state of knowledge in terms of prevalence, triggers, prevention, and management.

Major depressive disorder (MDD), and particularly treatment-resistant depression (TRD), lead to high levels of health-care use and disease burden. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the health-care resource utilisation and associated costs in these patient groups. It was a population-wide, retrospective analysis of NHS health-care electronic records in northwest London using the Discover-NOW platform, one of the largest interlinked datasets in Europe hosted by Imperial College Health Partners, which contains coded emergency and routine, primary and secondary, physical and mental health data, covering a population of more than 2.
