Title: Estimated long term health effects of the Chernobyl accident
Author: Cardis, E. [International Agency for Research on Cancer, Lyon (France)]

Keywords: 56 BIOLOGY AND MEDICINE, APPLIED STUDIES ;54 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES; CHERNOBYLSK-4 REACTOR; RADIATION ACCIDENTS; NEOPLASMS; PROBABILISTIC ESTIMATION; HUMAN POPULATIONS; BIOLOGICAL RADIATION EFFECTS; THYROID; BELARUS; RUSSIAN FEDERATION; UKRAINE; EPIDEMIOLOGY; CESIUM 137
Abstract: …These increases would be difficult to detect epidemiologically against an expected background number of 41500 and 433000 cases of cancer respectively among the two groups. The exposures for populations due to the Chernobyl accident are different in type and pattern from those of the survivors of the atomic bombing of Japan. Thus predictions derived from studies of these populations are uncertain. The extent of the incidence of thyroid cancer was not envisaged. Since only ten years have lapsed since the accident, continued monitoring of the health of the population is essential to assess the public health impact.

Abstract: Our findings both support and extend those of Nikiforova et al. [M.N. Nikiforova, R. Ciampi, G. Salvatore, M. Santoro, M. Gandhi, J.A. Knauf, et al., Low prevalence of BRAF mutations in radiation-induced thyroid tumors in contrast to sporadic papillary carcinomas, Cancer Lett. 209 (2004) 1–6]: BRAF mutations are rare in childhood PTC, both in an irradiation setting and in sporadic tumors.

Title: Chernobyl Sasakawa Health and Medical Cooperation Project

Reference: International Congress Series, 1234, p.3-6, May 2002
doi: 10.1016/S0531-5131(01)00589-1
Keywords: Chernobyl accident; Sasakawa Project; Thyroid cancer; Tissue bank; Telemedicine
Abstract: …A telemedicine program between the Gomel Center and Nagasaki University School of Medicine, and an international cooperative project to establish thyroid cancer tissue banks are also being implemented. It is expected that all these programs have contributed to their original objectives, which were to provide support for the three Republics in their efforts to supply the best medical care for the people affected by the Chernobyl accident.

Title: A time trend analysis of papillary and follicular cancers as a function of tumour size: A study of data from six cancer registries in France (1983–2000)

Keywords: Thyroid cancer; Tumor size; Time trend; Incidence; Papillary; Follicular
Abstract: …Some studies mention the effects of radioactive fallout, particularly after the accident in Chernobyl. Another probable cause is related to progress in medical practice, and particularly in diagnosis. In this article, we describe time trends in the incidence of papillary and follicular cancers, taking into account the size of the tumour at the time of diagnosis. The analysis was carried out on cases from six French cancer registries for the period 1983–2000…

Title: The Chernobyl accident and its consequences: Update at the millennium
Author: Tuttle, R. Michael / Becker, David V.
Reference: Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, 30 (2), p.133-140, Apr 2000
doi: 10.1053/nm.2000.5412
Abstract:…However, several unique chromosomal break-points have been described in radiation-associated thyroid cancers that are not commonly found in spontaneously occurring thyroid cancer. Furthermore, activation of specific subtypes of the ret/PTC tyrosine kinase oncogene appears to be more common in radiation-associated thyroid cancers than in spontaneous thyroid cancers. In summary, thyroid cancers developing in the aftermath of the Chernobyl accident provide a unique opportunity to search for chromosomal abnormalities that may be specific for radiation-induced thyroid cancer.
