Journal ArticleDOI
Radiation exposure from CT scans in childhood and subsequent risk of leukaemia and brain tumours: a retrospective cohort study
Mark S. Pearce,J Salotti,Mark P. Little,Kieran McHugh,Choonsik Lee,Kwang Pyo Kim,Nicola Howe,Cécile M. Ronckers,Preetha Rajaraman,Alan W. Craft,Louise Parker,Amy Berrington de Gonzalez +11 more
TL;DR: Use of CT scans in children to deliver cumulative doses of about 50 mGy might almost triple the risk of leukaemia and doses ofabout 60 m Gy might triple therisk of brain cancer.

TL;DR: This is the largest analytical epidemiological study of the effects of low-dose protracted exposures to ionizing radiation to date, and shows a strong healthy worker survivor effect in these cohorts.

TL;DR: Estimates of risk of cancer after protracted low doses of ionising radiation after nuclear workers in the largest study of nuclear workers ever conducted are higher than, but statistically compatible with, the risk estimates used for current radiation protection standards.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiovascular disease risk in women with pre-eclampsia: systematic review and meta-analysis
TL;DR: Women diagnosed with pre-eclampsia are at increased risk of future cardiovascular or cerebrovascular events, with an estimated doubling of odds compared to unaffected women, and this has implications for the follow-up of all women who experience pre- eClampsia, not just those who deliver pre-term.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of dietary factors on the clinical course of ulcerative colitis: a prospective cohort study
Sarah L. Jowett,Chris J. Seal,Mark S. Pearce,Elizabeth Phillips,Wendy Gregory,J R Barton,Mark R Welfare +6 more
TL;DR: Potentially modifiable dietary factors, such as a high meat or alcoholic beverage intake, have been identified that are associated with an increased likelihood of relapse for UC patients.
