Association between ambient beta particle radioactivity and lower hemoglobin concentrations in a cohort of elderly men
Although ionizing radiation is known to have detrimental effects on red blood cells, the effect of environmental radioactivity associated with ambient particulate matter (PM) is unknown. We hypothesized that exposure to ambient PM-associated beta particle radioactivity (PRβ) would be associated with...
