This study aimed to assess the working conditions, the protective measures and the medical monitoring of workers directly involved in X-ray work at hospitals in Douala, Cameroon. Materials and Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out during the 1st quarter of 2018, across various state and private health facilities of the city of Douala. Sampling was non-random, based on convenience and all the willing participants that fulfilled the inclusion criteria were enrolled. Quantitative analyses were conducted using EPI INFO 7.0 software and the results were presented in both univariate and bivariate forms. Results: The sample consisted of 56 men and 31 women with a mean age of 34.75 ± 8.77 years. X-ray technicians were over-represented (41.38%). Day/night shift work was the main work pattern (68.96%). The distribution of work zones A&B was known by 87.5% of the participants. Hazard warning signs were effective in work zones A and B (75.86%), and the walls of the premises were also reinforced in these work zones (88.51%), but the use of radiation dosimeters was rare (9.20%). Radiation aprons (94.30%) and hand-held dosimeters (63.20%) were the most commonly used personal protective equipment. The majority of the participants did not benefit from medical follow-up by an occupational health specialist (62.1%). Conclusion: The implementation of radiation protection measures remains a significant concern in Douala based health facilities, and requires stricter administrative controls and sanctions to prevent serious health consequences for exposed staff.展开更多

文摘Distributed data fusion is essential for numerous applications,yet faces significant privacy security challenges.Federated learning(FL),as a distributed machine learning paradigm,offers enhanced data privacy protection and has attracted widespread attention.Consequently,research increasingly focuses on developing more secure FL techniques.However,in real-world scenarios involving malicious entities,the accuracy of FL results is often compromised,particularly due to the threat of collusion between two servers.To address this challenge,this paper proposes an efficient and verifiable data aggregation protocol with enhanced privacy protection.After analyzing attack methods against prior schemes,we implement key improvements.Specifically,by incorporating cascaded random numbers and perturbation terms into gradients,we strengthen the privacy protection afforded by polynomial masking,effectively preventing information leakage.Furthermore,our protocol features an enhanced verification mechanism capable of detecting collusive behaviors between two servers.Accuracy testing on the MNIST and CIFAR-10 datasets demonstrates that our protocol maintains accuracy comparable to the Federated Averaging Algorithm.In scheme efficiency comparisons,while incurring only a marginal increase in verification overhead relative to the baseline scheme,our protocol achieves an average improvement of 93.13% in privacy protection and verification overhead compared to the state-of-the-art scheme.This result highlights its optimal balance between overall overhead and functionality.A current limitation is that the verificationmechanismcannot precisely pinpoint the source of anomalies within aggregated results when server-side malicious behavior occurs.Addressing this limitation will be a focus of future research.
文摘Introduction: The use of radioactive radiations in healthcare facilities must comply with radioprotection safety rules in order to avoid threatening the health of workers and patients. This study aimed to assess the working conditions, the protective measures and the medical monitoring of workers directly involved in X-ray work at hospitals in Douala, Cameroon. Materials and Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out during the 1st quarter of 2018, across various state and private health facilities of the city of Douala. Sampling was non-random, based on convenience and all the willing participants that fulfilled the inclusion criteria were enrolled. Quantitative analyses were conducted using EPI INFO 7.0 software and the results were presented in both univariate and bivariate forms. Results: The sample consisted of 56 men and 31 women with a mean age of 34.75 ± 8.77 years. X-ray technicians were over-represented (41.38%). Day/night shift work was the main work pattern (68.96%). The distribution of work zones A&B was known by 87.5% of the participants. Hazard warning signs were effective in work zones A and B (75.86%), and the walls of the premises were also reinforced in these work zones (88.51%), but the use of radiation dosimeters was rare (9.20%). Radiation aprons (94.30%) and hand-held dosimeters (63.20%) were the most commonly used personal protective equipment. The majority of the participants did not benefit from medical follow-up by an occupational health specialist (62.1%). Conclusion: The implementation of radiation protection measures remains a significant concern in Douala based health facilities, and requires stricter administrative controls and sanctions to prevent serious health consequences for exposed staff.

文摘The increasing severity of air pollution necessitates more effective and sustained air filtration technology.Concurrently,the desire for more environmentally friendly,sustainable materials with better filtering performance and less environmental impact drives the move away from conventional synthetic membranes.This review presents lignocellulosic biocomposite(LigBioComp)membranes as an alternative to traditional synthetic membranes.It focuses on their materials,fabrication,and functionalization techniques while exploring challenges and proposing methods for resourceful utilization.Renowned for their abundance and renewable nature,lignocellulosic materials consist of cellulose,hemicellulose,and lignin.Various applications can benefit from their antibacterial properties,large surface area,and remarkable mechanical strength.LigBioComp membranes are fabricated through casting,electrospinning,and freeze-drying,with advancements in fabrication techniques enhancing their performance and applicability.It is suggested to use solvent-free or low-solvent techniques such as Layer-by-Layer assembly to minimize environmental impact.Freeze-drying and electrospinning with green solvents can be used for achieving specific membrane properties,though energy consumption should be considered.Apply dry-wet spinning and solvent casting processes selectively.Functional groups,including carboxyl,hydroxyl,or amino groups,can significantly improve the membrane’s capacity to capture particulate matter.Chemical etching or the precise deposition of nanoparticles can further optimize pore size and distribution.The choice of chemicals and methods is critical in functionalization,with silane coupling agents,polyethyleneimine,and polydopamine.Future research should prioritize refining fabrication methods,advancing functionalization strategies,and conducting performance and recyclability assessments on hybrid and composite materials.This will enhance integrated systems and contribute to the development of smart filters.
