Dose estimation for atomic bomb survivor studies: its evolution and present statusHarry M Cullings
Departments of Statistics, Radiation Effects Research Foundation, Hiroshima, Japan

Disaster Med Public Health Prep 5:S122-33. 2011..This article reviews those risk estimates and summarizes what has been learned from this historic and unique study... - Effect of recent changes in atomic bomb survivor dosimetry on cancer mortality risk estimatesDale L Preston
Department of Statistics, Radiation Effects Research Foundation, Hiroshima, Japan
Radiat Res 162:377-89. 2004..Whether or not one makes allowance for this, there is no statistically significant city difference in the estimated cancer risk... - Exposure to ionizing radiation and development of bone sarcoma: new insights based on atomic-bomb survivors of Hiroshima and NagasakiDino Samartzis

J Bone Joint Surg Am 93:1008-15. 2011..However, the development of bone sarcoma following exposure to lower doses of ionizing radiation remains speculative... - Proportional hazards regression in epidemiologic follow-up studies: an intuitive consideration of primary time scaleJohn Cologne
Departments of Statistics, Radiation Effects Research Foundation, Hiroshima, Japan
Epidemiology 23:565-73. 2012..Given the potential for biased risk estimates, age should be considered as the preferred time scale for proportional-hazards regression with epidemiologic follow-up data when confounding by age is a concern... - Easy detection of GFP-positive mutants following forward mutations at specific gene locus in cultured human cellsAsao Noda

Departments of Genetics, Radiation Effects Research Foundation, Hiroshima, Japan
J Radiat Res 52:600-8. 2011..The results did not support claims that a large fraction of distally-exposed survivors received large doses (e.g. 1 Gy) of external penetrating radiation resulting from residual radiation... - Heterozygous individuals bearing a founder mutation in the XPA DNA repair gene comprise nearly 1% of the Japanese populationYuko Hirai
Department of Genetics, Radiation Effects Research Foundation, 5 2 Hijiyama Park, Hiroshima, Japan
Mutat Res 601:171-8. 2006..88%. This rate, if representative, implies that there are about 1 million carriers of the XPA founder mutation in the Japanese population. Thus, investigation of their cancer risk may be warranted...
