Abstract We presented an artificial intelligence-based model to predict annual effective dose (AED) value of health workers. Potential factors affecting AED and the results of annual blood tests were collected from 91 radiation workers. Filter-based feature selection strategy revealed that the eight factors plate, red cell distribution width (RDW), educational degree, nonacademic course in radiation protection (hour), working hours per month, department and the number of procedures done per year and work in radiology department or not (0,1) were the most important predictors for AED.

Medication use in pregnancy requires a careful balance between the risks of fetal teratogenicity and the maternal benefits of disease treatment. For women with epilepsy, there are many antiepileptic medications available for use in pregnancy. Each varies in their safety profile, risk for fetal anomalies, and effectiveness of seizure control. In most scenarios, the benefits of maternal treatment outweigh the risk of fetal effects, especially in cases of refractory epilepsy or severe disease. Many of the newer anti-epileptic drugs appear to have less teratogenic risk than the older medications.

Abstract:
Background: Potassium-40 (K-40) is a naturally occurring radionuclide that can be found in the environment in varying concentrations, unlike cesium-137 (Cs-137), which is an artificial radionuclide resulting from the operation of nuclear power plants and nuclear tests. If these two radionuclides are found in significant concentrations in packaging materials used for food, they can contribute to an increase in the annual gamma radiation dose received by humans above the recommended levels. Methods and Objectives: Using gamma spectrometry, the activity concentrations of K-40 and Cs-137 were dete

Abstract:
This paper presents ongoing results of the project presented at ICEM’10 [1] related to the topics of reusing the conditionally released materials from decommissioning. The subject of the reuse of conditionally released materials in this case is modeling of bridge constructions which reuse the conditionally released steel in the form of reinforcement bars for the concrete bridges. A general approach for the project was presented at ICEM’10. The activities of the project continue in evaluating the individual effective doses from the external exposure based on reused conditionally released steels

Abstract:
The continuous degradation of available water resources coupled with the high cost of conventional water treatment has led to alternative, sustainable and cost-effective methods of treating wastewater. This study investigated the efficiency of Carica papaya seeds in the coagulation of moderately turbid water while determining the optimum treatment dosage and evaluating the treatment efficiencies compared to the use of conventional Aluminum sulphate (alum). Moderately turbid wastewater was obtained from Ala River tributary in Akure, Ondo State, Nigeria. The coagulation experiments were carried

In low to middle income countries, there's a rise in invasive cervical squamous cell carcinoma. Affordability emerges as a crucial factor influencing this trend. This research is based on the development of a new HPV vaccine made in China called Ceolin priced at $47 and its efficacy to be incorporated into the WHO vaccination program. A peer review was conducted based on an ongoing randomized phase 3 clinical trial of a 2 dose regimen bivalent Cecolin vaccine (types 16,18) .

Abstract:
Considerable amount of solid radioactive waste with radioactivity slightly above the limits for unconditional release is generated during the decommissioning of the nuclear installations. Conditional release deals with precisely this type of materials with activity slightly above limits in order to save considerable financial resources, which would be otherwise spend on treatment, conditioning and disposal of these materials at appropriate repository. The basic principles of conditional release as well as possibilities of reusing of the conditionally released materials are described. One of th

Sufficient adaptation finance under the New Collective Quantified Goal (NCQG) should direct international funding to countries with the least responsibility for climate change, in a way that does not limit their capacity to adapt – for example, with a specific annual sub-goal or target for adaptation finance of at least USD 215 billion annually – with recognition of public finance (grants and concessional loans) as the core form of support. The NCQG should require simultaneous investment in global resilience building, alignment of funding with national plans, and support for locally led adapta

Abstract:
The availability of numerous beneficial healthcare technologies presents both an opportunity and a challenge: while they have the potential to improve health outcomes, financial constraints limit their widespread adoption. This challenge is further exacerbated by an aging population and shifting epidemiological trends, which place increasing pressure on global healthcare expenditures. To ensure that rising healthcare costs translate into meaningful improvements in population health, it is essential that spending remains sustainable, does not displace other critical investments, and aligns with

Abstract:
The Kenyan government believes fisheries have significant potential for development. Yet their development faces many challenges – some of which are connected to a lack of the data needed to ensure their effective management. We do not, for example, have reliable information on the total annual catch. It is therefore impossible to establish whether the existing system of levies and charges is broadly right from the perspective of revenue collection and long-term sustainability of fisheries.

Abstract:
Risk for incidental take of sea turtles and sturgeon exists during hopper dredging operations throughout turtle and sturgeon habitats. Since 1992, draghead deflectors have been the main engineering tool used to minimize incidental hopper dredging takes of sea turtles and are also thought to reduce the chance of sturgeon impingement or entrainment. Although reduced, turtle takes still happen annually, and the draghead deflectors reduce dredging productivity, increase fuel usage, and increase costs of operations. As such, there remains a need to research alternative turtle avoidance measures. Th
