exposure dose , which is the air concentration of pollutant inhaled during a certain time period (in work hygiene usually eight hours), or the retained or absorbed dose (in industrial hygiene also called the body burden ), which is the amount present in the body at a certain time during or after exposure. (iloencyclopaedia.org)

Children2
Using the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project's Kids' Inpatient Database (HCUP KID), a study by Wanstreet et al indicated that in pediatric patients (up to age 20 years), nonfood airway foreign bodies tend to be more often found in older children. (medscape.com)
A study by Cheng et al using the KID found that between 2000 and 2009, the mean annual hospital admission rate in the United States for children diagnosed with an airway foreign body was 6.6 per 10,000 pediatric patients. (medscape.com)
Positive1
T cells that successfully develop react appropriately with MHC immune receptors of the body (called positive selection) and not against proteins of the body (called negative selection). (wikipedia.org)
Time1
Although the thymus has been identified as a part of the body since the time of the Ancient Greeks, it is only since the 1960s that the function of the thymus in the immune system has become clearer. (wikipedia.org)
Critical1
T cells are critical to the adaptive immune system, where the body adapts to specific foreign invaders. (wikipedia.org)
