Journal ArticleDOI
Solid Cancer Incidence in Atomic Bomb Survivors: 1958–1998
Dale L. Preston,Elaine Ron,Shoji Tokuoka,Sachiyo Funamoto,Nobuo Nishi,Midori Soda,Kiyohiko Mabuchi,Kazunori Kodama +7 more
TL;DR: There was emerging evidence from the present data that exposure as a child may increase risks of cancer of the body of the uterus, and further evidence that radiation-associated increases in cancer rates persist throughout life regardless of age at exposure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radiation exposure and circulatory disease risk: Hiroshima and Nagasaki atomic bomb survivor data, 1950-2003
Yukiko Shimizu,Kazunori Kodama,Nobuo Nishi,Fumiyoshi Kasagi,Akihiko Suyama,Midori Soda,Eric J. Grant,Hiromi Sugiyama,Ritsu Sakata,Hiroko Moriwaki,Mikiko Hayashi,Manami Konda,Roy E. Shore +12 more
TL;DR: Doses above 0.5 Gy are associated with an elevated risk of both stroke and heart disease, but the degree of risk at lower doses is unclear, and mis diagnosis of cancers as circulatory diseases could not account for the associations seen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solid Cancer Incidence in Atomic Bomb Survivors Exposed In Utero or as Young Children
Dale L. Preston,Harry M. Cullings,Akihiko Suyama,Sachiyo Funamoto,Nobuo Nishi,Midori Soda,Kiyohiko Mabuchi,Kazunori Kodama,Fumiyoshi Kasagi,Roy E. Shore +9 more
TL;DR: The apparent difference in EARs between the two groups suggests that lifetime risks following in utero exposure may be considerably lower than for early childhood exposure, but further follow-up is needed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficacy of clonidine for prevention of perioperative myocardial ischemia: a critical appraisal and meta-analysis of the literature.
Kahoru Nishina,Katsuya Mikawa,Takanobu Uesugi,Hidefumi Obara,Munetaka Maekawa,Isao Kamae,Nobuo Nishi +6 more
TL;DR: The meta-analysis suggests that perioperative clonidine reduces cardiac ischemic episodes in patients with known, or at risk of, coronary arterial disease without increasing the incidence of bradycardia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ionizing Radiation and Leukemia Mortality among Japanese Atomic Bomb Survivors, 1950–2000
David B. Richardson,Hiromi Sugiyama,Nobuo Nishi,Ritsu Sakata,Yukiko Shimizu,Eric J. Grant,Midori Soda,Wan-Ling Hsu,Akihiko Suyama,Kazunori Kodama,Fumiyoshi Kasagi +10 more
TL;DR: Overall, 103 of the 310 observed leukemia deaths were estimated to be excess deaths due to radiation exposure, suggesting that the effect of the atomic bombings on leukemia mortality has persisted in this cohort for more than five decades.
