  • In fact, few facilities consider any exposures other than the recorded noise levels when addressing NIHL. (ohsonline.com)
  • More sophisticated than merely adding simple digital noise, Exposure 2's grain simulation models the size, shape, and color of real world grain, including the unique salt and pepper grain of TRI-X® and the large, intensely colorful grain of the discontinued GAF™ 500. (layersmagazine.com)
  • Since this is caused by chemical exposure instead of noise exposure, this would not technically be NIHL. (ohsonline.com)
  • DECATUR, Ala. - A woman is blaming the Daikin-America plant in Decatur for injuries she sustained after an alleged chemical exposure two years ago. (whnt.com)
  • This after another alleged chemical exposure took the life of a longtime employee, Wesley Rusk, this week. (whnt.com)
  • He was being treated at Vanderbilt Medical Center from complications due to a chemical exposure that happened on the job back on July 2. (whnt.com)
  • Darby Dockery, a 37-year-old mother, and her husband were both contracted workers at the plant, but Darby says while she was on the job a hazardous chemical exposure left her struggling to stay alive with lungs that hardly function on their own now. (whnt.com)
  • Medical diagnostic procedures used to define and diagnose medical conditions are currently the greatest manmade source of ionizing radiation exposure to the general population. (medscape.com)
  • Linear mixed effects analyses were conducted to examine relationships between workday JP8 exposure on neuropsychological functioning over a work week. (bmj.com)
  • Significant associations were not observed between repeated-workday exposure to JP8 and neuropsychological performances. (bmj.com)
  • To examine the association between previous concussions and heading exposure with performance on computer based neuropsychological tests among professional Norwegian football players. (bmj.com)
  • Players in the Norwegian professional football league (Tippeligaen) performed two consecutive baseline neuropsychological tests (Cogsport) before the 2004 season (90.3% participation, n = 271) and completed a questionnaire assessing previous concussions, match heading exposure (self-reported number of heading actions per match), player career, etc. (bmj.com)
  • Neither match nor lifetime heading exposure was associated with neuropsychological test performance. (bmj.com)
  • Computerised neuropsychological testing revealed no evidence of neuropsychological impairment due to heading exposure or previous concussions in a cohort of Norwegian professional football players. (bmj.com)
  • The exposure might be through inhalation, ingestion, or dermal absorption. (ohsonline.com)
  • At 12 h after exposure, methacholine inhalation challenge tests and sputum induction were performed. (portlandpress.com)
  • Indoor exposure will be assessed by questionnaires and validated by measurements. (lu.se)
  • However, before discussing possible effects of radiofrequency-electromagnetic field (RF-EMF) on the human body, several factors must be investigated about the influence of EMFs at the level of research using in vitro or animal models. (nih.gov)
  • Conventional fixed-site pollution monitoring methods lack the spatial resolution needed to characterize these heterogeneous human exposures and localized pollution hotspots. (healtheffects.org)
