A RETROSPECTIVE STUDY OF DEATHS AMONG PARTICIPANTS IN THE LIQUIDATION OF THE CONSEQUENCES OF THE ACCIDENT AT THE CHORNOBYL NPP DUE TO INJURY, POISONING AND CERTAIN OTHER CONSEQUENCES OF EXTERNAL CAUSES (2000-2020).
Probl Radiac Med Radiobiol
December 2024
State Institution «National Research Center for Radiation Medicine, Hematology and Oncology of the National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine», 53 Yuriia Illienka Str., Kyiv, 04050, Ukraine.
Objective: To assess the dynamics of changes in the number of deaths due to injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes and their structure among liquidators of the accident at the Chornobyl NPP (PACL) on the basis of the data of Ukraine's State Register of Persons Affected by the Chornobyl Disaster (SRU) for 2000-2020.
Materials And Methods: The study used information resources of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine for 2000-2020 regarding deaths among the PACL - databases of the SRU as a basis for monitoring their health status. Depersonalised information was selected for 2000-2020 regarding 5,124 deaths from injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes (ICD codes S00-T98) among the PACL, who were monitored in healthcare facilitiesof the Ministry of Health of Ukraine.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how microcirculation alterations can indicate vascular pathologies, particularly through methods like contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and super-resolution ultrasound (SRU) imaging.
- CEUS showed limitations in accurately measuring blood flow in microvascular areas due to interference from larger vessels and varying degrees of blood flow redistribution, which affected correlation with actual flow rates.
- In contrast, SRU demonstrated high accuracy in depicting blood vessel structures and dynamics, achieving over 91% correspondence with ground truth measurements, suggesting it may be a more effective tool for studying subtle flow changes caused by ischaemia.
A large scale study of portable sweat test sensor for accurate, non-invasive and rapid COVID-19 screening based on volatile compound marker detection.
Sci Rep

Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Science, Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok, 10330, Thailand.
This study established a novel infield sensing approach based on detection of the volatile compound markers in skin secretions. This was based on analysis of volatile compounds in axillary sweat samples collected from RT-PCR-proven Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) positive and negative populations using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The analysis proposed the possible markers of the monoaromatic compounds and ethyl hexyl acrylate.

Background: The objective of this study was to determine the adherence of radiologists to the guideline of the Society of Radiologists in Ultrasound (SRU)-2010 for the follow-up of ovarian cysts in patients during 2015-2016.
Methods: The patients' data, referring for transvaginal and pelvic ultrasonography, suffering from ovarian cyst were assessed in terms of menopause status, cyst size, and type, as well as follow-ups recommended by radiologist to assess the adherence of reports to SRU-2010.
Results: Three hundred and sixty-four sonography reports were investigated.
Profiling and Benchmarking Central Nervous System Infections in an Infectious Diseases Intensive Care Unit.
J Intensive Care Med
January 2024
Intensive Care Unit, Instituto Nacional de Infectologia Evandro Chagas, Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (Fiocruz), Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil.
Background: There is little information comparing the performance of community acquired central nervous system infections (CNSI) treatment by intensive care units (ICUs) specialized in infectious diseases with treatment at other ICUs. Our objective was to reduce these gaps, creating bases for benchmarking and future case-mix classification.
Methods: This is a retrospective observational cohort of 785 admissions with 82 cases of CNSI admitted to the ICU of an important Brazilian referral center for infectious diseases (INI) between January 2012 and January 2019.
