Diagnostic radiography and adult acute myeloid leukaemia: an interview and medical chart review study.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Aetiology of acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is not well understood, perhaps because of its distinct subtypes. High-dose ionising radiation is a known risk factor, but less is known about risk from low-dose exposure such as from diagnostic radiography. METHODS:Subjects were 412 matched case-control pairs. Ten-year subject histories of diagnostic radiography were based on interview and medical records. RESULTS:There was no convincing association between AML risk and ionising radiation exposure from diagnostic imaging procedures, either for AML overall or for any AML subtype. CONCLUSION:The association between diagnostic radiography and AML risk remains uncertain.

  • A comparative study between catalase gene therapy and the cardioprotector monohydroxyethylrutoside (MonoHER) in protecting against doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity in vitro.

    abstract::Cardiotoxicity is the main dose-limiting side effect of doxorubicin in the clinic. Being a free radical producer, doxorubicin affects the heart specifically because of its low antioxidant capacity. Among those antioxidants, catalase is present in very low levels in the heart compared to other organs. Since catalase is...
