Assessment of some Immunological and Hematological Factors among Radiation Workers

Effects of Occupational Exposure to Ionizing Radiation on Oxidative Stress and Inflammatory Markers in Healthcare Workers of a University Hospital in Konya, Turkey

“…Zakeri et al (2010) observed higher IL-2 and lower IL-10 levels among interventional cardiologists compared to the control group. Heidari et al (2016) found the IL-10 level to be lower in healthcare personnel working in the radiation unit compared to the control group. In another study conducted with radiology technicians and healthy volunteers, Ahmad et al (2019) reported higher levels of O 2-, IL-6, macrophage inflammatory protein-1α, and IL-1α in the group exposed to radiation exposure, but there was no statistically significant difference in relation to the IL-10 and TNF-α levels.…”

Effects of long-term X-ray exposure on CBC among radiological department staff in Sulaimani city

“… 18 Radiation sensitivity varies among cells, and hematopoietic cells are the most radiation-sensitive cell types. 19 Long-term exposure to low levels of ionizing radiation has been shown to be harmful to the health of laboratory personnel and to potentially cause hematological disorders. 8 , 20 In investigating the damage produced by radiation, blood cell count can serve as a biological indicator.…”
