The present study investigated the effects of 902.4 MHz global system for mobile communications (GSM) mobile phone radiation on cerebral blood flow using positron emission tomography (PET) with the (15) O-water tracer. Fifteen young, healthy, right-handed male subjects were exposed to phone radiation from three different locations (left ear, right ear, forehead) and to sham exposure to test for possible exposure effects on brain regions close to the exposure source. Whole-brain [¹⁵O]H₂O-PET images were acquired 12 times, 3 for each condition, in a counterbalanced order. Subjects were exposed for 5 min in each scan while performing a simple visual vigilance task. Temperature was also measured in the head region (forehead, eyes, cheeks, ear canals) during exposure. The exposure induced a slight temperature rise in the ear canals but did not affect brain hemodynamics and task performance. The results provided no evidence for acute effects of short-term mobile phone radiation on cerebral blood flow.

A smartphone-based non-invasive method was developed for salivary uric acid detection using Gleditsia Sinensis carbon dots (GS-CDs). The GS-CDs synthesized by the one-pot hydrothermal method emitted blue fluorescence at a maximum excitation wavelength of 350 nm and had good fluorescence stability in the presence of different ions, while showing selectivity to uric acid solution. The ability of uric acid (UA) to quench the fluorescent substances present in the GS-CDs, was confirmed through HPLC-FLD and LC-MS, FTIR and XPS.

Wearable systems for health monitoring are highly desired in personal diagnostics and precision medicine while challenges remain in constructing such wearable systems with reliability and high performance. Herein, we report a wearable platform for non-invasive monitoring biomarkers in sweat. The device is composed of a butterfly-shaped like microfluidic platform in which responsive photonic crystal hydrogels are embedded in each butterfly wing as sensors.

Environmental radiation is one of the key causes of the increased prevalence of infertility among couples. This type of radiation can be ionizing or non-ionizing. While ionizing radiation is known to cause sterility in both males and females, the role of low-energy non-ionizing radiation is still debated.

Early-delayed side effects (EDSEs) following treatment of canine intracranial meningiomas with 1-3-fraction stereotactic radiation therapy (SRT) can cause worsening neurologic signs, and one potential method of mitigating this toxicity is reducing the dose per fraction. Twenty dogs with imaging-diagnosed intracranial meningiomas and telephone follow-up of at least 6 months received a protocol of 6 Gy × 5, daily (30 Gy). A 'possible EDSE' was defined as mental dullness, neurologic exacerbation of existing neurologic signs or new neurologic signs occurring within 1-4 months of completing SRT, regardless of the response to steroids and even if an MRI was not performed.
