Journal ArticleDOI
Cancer Mortality in the High Background Radiation Areas of Yangjiang, China during the Period between 1979 and 1995
Zufan Tao,Yongru Zha,Suminori Akiba,Quanfu Sun,Jianming Zou,Jia Li,Yusheng Liu,Hiroo Kato,Tsutomu Sugahara,Luxin Wei +9 more
TL;DR: The mortality of all cancers in HBRA was generally lower than that in the control area, but not statistically significant, and neither homogeneity tests nor trend tests revealed any statistically significant relationship between cancer risk and radiation dose.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radon and thoron exposures for cave residents in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces.
Shinji Tokonami,Quanfu Sun,Suminori Akiba,W. Zhuo,Masahide Furukawa,Tetsuo Ishikawa,Changsong Hou,Shouzhi Zhang,Yukinori Narazaki,Baku Ohji,Hidenori Yonehara,Yuji Yamada +11 more
TL;DR: The present study revealed that the presence of thoron is not negligible for accurate radon measurements and thus that special attention should be paid to thoron and its decay products for dose assessment in such an environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cancer and non-cancer mortality among Inhabitants in the high background radiation area of Yangjiang, China (1979-1998).
Zufan Tao,Suminori Akiba,Yongru Zha,Quanfu Sun,Jianming Zou,Jia Li,Yusheng Liu,Yongling Yuan,Shinji Tokonami,Hisashige Morishoma,Taeko Koga,Seiichi Nakamura,Tsutomu Sugahara,Luxin Wei +13 more
TL;DR: The cumulative HBR dose was not related to the mortality due to cancer or all non-cancer diseases among residents in Yangjiang HBR areas, and liver-cancer mortality was inverselyrelated to the cumulative dose.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human papillomavirus in high- and low-risk areas of oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma in China
Karem Shuyama,Andres Castillo,Francisco Aguayo,Quanfu Sun,Noureen Khan,Chihaya Koriyama,Suminori Akiba +6 more
TL;DR: The presence of HPV DNA in paraffin-embedded ESCC tissues collected from two areas with different ESCC incidence rates in China was examined using PCR with SPF10 primers, or PCR with GP5+/GP6+ primers combined with Southern blot hybridisation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radon–Thoron Discriminative Measurements in Gansu Province, China, and Their Implication for Dose Estimates
Yuji Yamada,Quanfu Sun,Shinji Tokonami,Suminori Akiba,W. Zhuo,Changsong Hou,Shouzhi Zhang,Tetsuo Ishikawa,Masahide Furukawa,Kumiko Fukutsu,Hidenori Yonehara +10 more
TL;DR: Indoor radon measurements were carried out in cave dwellings of the Chinese loess plateau in Gansu province, where previously the Laboratory of Industrial Hygiene, China, and the U.S. National Cancer Institute had conducted an international collaborative epidemiological study showed an increased lung cancer risk due to high residential radon levels.
