环癣与辐射:被遗忘的大流行病的历史、医学和法律 implications

Shifra Shvarts, Siegal Sadetzki | 2022 | ISBN: 0197568963 | English | 384 pages | PDF | 29 MB

Ringworm and Irradiation: The Historical, Medical, and Legal Implications of the Forgotten Epidemic explores the history of the disease and the use of irradiation for the treatment of ringworm, an epidemic that was spread mainly among poor children in countries across the world in the first half of the 20th century.

At its peak in the 1940 and 50s, children around the globe were treated with radiation therapy to prevent and eradicate ringworm of the scalp, a treatment that led years later to latent health risk to develop tumors, malignancies, thyroid cancer, brain tumors, and other health effects among the exposed population. The actions taken by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and the US Food and Drug Administration to launch a nationwide campaign warning the public, and thus the medical community, about the late health effects of ionizing radiation received in childhood are evidenced in this compilation.


《孢子疮与辐射:被遗忘的大流行病的历史、医学和法律影响》探讨了这种疾病的史实以及在20世纪初全球贫困儿童中广泛传播的孢子疮通过辐射疗法治疗的情况。在上世纪40年代至50年代达到顶峰时,世界各地的孩子们接受放射疗法来预防和根除头皮上的孢子疮,这一治疗方法导致暴露人群多年后出现了肿瘤、恶性肿瘤、甲状腺癌和其他健康影响的风险。该汇编中可以发现国家癌症研究所(NCI)和美国食品药品监督管理局采取的行动,即发起全国性宣传运动,警告公众及医疗界儿童时期所受电离辐射所带来的长期健康效应。
