The paper represents a comparative analysis of hypoxiradiotherapy of 202 patients with malignant tumors of different sites. A significant decrease (a 3.5-fold) in the number of severe local radiation reactions was noted in hypoxiradiotherapy of cancer of the esophagus, pancreas and metastases of seminoma to the retroperitoneal lymph nodes. A decrease in the number and intensity of general radiation reactions and the absence of pyo-inflammatory complications after radical operations were noted in preoperative large fractionated hypoxiradiotherapy of colon and lung cancer. The general number of radiation reactions was 12% less in hypoxiradiotherapy. Tumor regression after hypoxiradiotherapy did not slow down. Complete or considerable tumor resorption after irradiation against a background of gaseous hypoxia was noted in 74 +/- 7% of the patients and in 65 +/- 7% after radiotherapy alone. Hypoxiradiotherapy alone or before operation should be widely introduced into clinical practice of cancer dispensaries or radiological departments.

Purpose: Hematological toxicities (HTs) in lung cancer (LCa) may compromise the delivery of Radio-Chemotherapy (RTCT), and consequently affect the control of the disease. The aim of this study is to evaluate the association of Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with HT.
Material/methods: In this prospective multicentre study, 264 patients with primary LCa treated with RTCT between 2012 and 2018 were included.

The adsorption reaction on clay minerals is crucial for understanding the environmental behavior of various cations, including cesium (Cs). However, its details remain unclear because of multiple adsorption sites of the clay minerals, a significant difference between concentrations in the atomic-scale experiments and the actual environment, and difficulties of evaluating bonding states of the adsorbed cations. It is expected that systematic experiments at the atomic-scale with a wide concentration range and application of density functional theory (DFT) calculations overcome the problems and bring crucial insights to link laboratory experiment results with environmental sample analysis.

Photothermal reactions, involving both photochemical and thermal reaction steps, are the most abundant sequences in photochemistry. The derivation of their rate laws is standardized, but the integration of these rate laws has not yet been achieved. Indeed, the field still lacks integrated rate laws for the description of these reactions' behavior and/or identification of their reaction order.

Accelerated photooxidation of salicylic acid (SA) was performed using UV radiation and hydrogen peroxide. HPLC-MS analysis showed that the primary intermediates are 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid, 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid, pyrocatechol, and phenol. Deeper oxidation leads to low molecular weight aliphatic acids, such as maleic, fumaric, and glyoxylic.

Dichlorobenzene is beneficial to industries, however, the release of this compound into the environment causes significant damage to ecosystems and human health, as it exhibits resistance to biodegradation. Here, we show that chlorophenol and resorcinol are synthesized from 1,3-dichlorobenzene in a water ice environment (1) directly on a poly-crystalline gold surface and (2) after low-energy (<12 eV) electron irradiation of admixture films. For the latter, at energies below 5.
