Many animal experiments confirm the predicted shape of the dose response relationship.

If the exposures are limited to a range in which the dose response relationship is approximately linear, the quantities can also be expressed per unit dose.

And sure enough, we found a dose response relationship, just like we found in the arterial blockages in our cardiac studies.

Many factors complicate the study of the dose effect relationship.

Cell killing by radiation can be quantitatively studied in cell cultures in vitro to gain information on the shape of the dose response relationship.

When the relationship is clearly non linear, the quantities can be specified at a stated dose, usually at an effective dose of 1 Sv.

The probability of this occurring is related to dose by the same type of dose relationship (linear or linear quadratic) as discussed for heritable mutations in the cell.

The approach commonly used in risk assessment is to fit a linear dose response relationship to the data, a procedure that is usually considered to give an upper limit to the risk at low doses.

Others even went further for a double dose of care in defiance to the relationship between camels and the coronavirus.

Absorbed dose, equivalent dose and effective dose all apply to individuals or to average individuals.

With densely ionizing radiation, for example, alpha particles, there are fewer, but denser, tracks per unit dose, and each track is more likely to produce damage that is not successfully repaired, so the relationship is more likely to be proportional to dose at all doses and dose rates.

The dose referred to is almost always the effective dose.

1.1.2.2.5 In the French version, replace dose effective with dose efficace .

Tissue failures are therefore dependent on both dose and dose rate.

What's the dose?

The theoretical and experimental results are thus combined to obtain a quantitative relationship between dose and the probability of occurrence of the relevant cancer.

At low doses with any dose rate and at high doses with low dose rate, only the term proportional to dose is effective.

Per dose per patient.

Give me a dose

In the UNSCEAR 1988 report, the Committee derived risk coefficients (risk per unit dose) for high dose and high dose rate situations for various tissues.

It should be mentioned that, at higher doses, cell killing is substantial, competing with cell transformation and causing the dose response curve to bend downwards.

Mechanistic models for the induction of cancer by radiation can be formulated from radiobiological information these models suggest the choice of the dose response function.

For sparsely ionizing radiations, such as X rays, the net effect of these processes is such that the dose effect relationship for most stochastic effects is curvilinear.

It wasn't a big dose?

So milliliters of solution per dose.

A dose is every twelve hours.

Better give him a good dose.

I'll give you the right dose.

The Committee has used a quantity analogous to effective dose, but ignoring the dose to the target tissue.

Again, not an insane dose, not an illegal dose, but very much at the high end of normal.

Because the proportion of cells killed depends on dose, the severity of the deterministic effect also depends on dose.

All these features are included in the selection of the weighting factors for converting equivalent dose into effective dose.

This is because the quadratic term will increase the response at high doses with high dose rates, forcing an increase in the slope of the fitted straight line.

Nigerians can use a dose of hope.

Pour me a heavy dose of atmosphere

We're still getting a dose of UVA.

The average dose from external exposure was estimated to be 0.12 Sv, giving a collective dose of about 30,000 man Sv.

Stochastic health effects occur by chance, generally occurring without a threshold level of dose, whose probability is proportional to the dose and whose severity is independent of the dose, such as cancer and genetic effects.

However, to ensure a clear distinction between the absorbed dose and its weighted analogues, it has been agreed that the unit of equivalent dose and of effective dose should have the special name sievert (Sv).

These can provide a conceptual basis for interpreting the results of epidemiology, essentially by suggesting dose response relationships, the parameters of which can be fitted to the observed epidemiological results.
