naturally occurring radionuclide of terrestrial origin (also called primordial radionuclide) are present in various degrees in all media in the environment, including the human body itself. their concentrations in environment decrease continually by decaying. the main objective of this study is to evaluate the radioactivity levels and health risks due to terrestrial radionuclide in soil of yal...

Favorable perceptions of the built and social neighborhood environment may promote outdoor physical activity (PA). However, little is known about their independent and interactive effects on neighborhood-specific outdoor PA. We examined associations of perceived built and social neighborhood environment factors, and their interactions, with objectively-measured neighborhood outdoor moderate-to-...

Health of every living being is dependent on level pollutant in the environment, weather condition, etc, which are interrelated and influencing each other. Presence pollution particles high percentage such as particulate matter size 10 2.5 (PM10, PM25) microns creates higher risk lung functionality, respiratory disease reduces cardio functionality; also affects quality water sources. Rainfall, ...

BACKGROUND Although environmental characteristics as perceived by parents are known to be related to children's outdoor play behavior, less is known about the relation between independently measured neighborhood characteristics and outdoor play among children. The purpose of this study was to identify quantitative as well as qualitative neighborhood characteristics related to outdoor play by me...

This study was carried out to determine the distribution of particles in classrooms in primary schools located in the centre of the city of Sari, Iran and identify the relationship between indoor classroom particle levels and outdoor PM2.5 concentrations. Outdoor PM2.5 and indoor PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 were monitored using a real-time Micro Dust Pro monitor and a GRIMM monitor, respectively. Both...
