    The findings from this investigation suggest that the early changes in both the radiation-induced anterior subcapsular cataract and the hereditary posterior subcapsular cataract are at the level of the fibre cell membrane. 1994 S. [karger.com]

Cataract is the leading cause of blindness worldwide, especially in the third world where surgical treatment is unavailable. [omicsonline.org]

However, ICRP clearly states that the recommendations are chiefly based on epidemiological evidence because there are a very small number of studies that provide explicit biological, mechanistic evidence at doses 2Gy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

References:[1][2] Epidemiological data refers to the US, unless otherwise specified. [amboss.com]

Furthermore, Table 4.2 presents threshold doses estimated formally in the three recent epidemiological papers of very high quality. [icrp.org]

For example, a growing number of human epidemiological findings suggest significant risk among various groups of occupationally and accidentally exposed individuals and confidence intervals that include zero dose. [osti.gov]

Very few epidemiological studies have been published on the risk of cataracts in interventional radiology (including procedures for interventional cardiology). [bmcpublichealth.biomedcentral.com]

A fuller understanding of how exposure to relatively low doses of IR promotes induction and/or progression of IR-induced cataracts will have important implications for prevention and treatment of this disease, as well as for the field of radiation protection [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Thus, these findings suggest that LSD be very useful for prevention of cataract during radiotherapy for malignant lymphoma of orbit and ocular adnexa. [dbpia.co.kr]

Continued Prevention You can't prevent being born with a weaker abdominal wall. But you can take steps to avoid having problems because of it, such as not smoking and keeping your weight in check. [webmd.com]

See Slideshow Is it possible to prevent direct and indirect hernias? In many cases, it is impossible to prevent inguinal hernias as the weakness in the abdominal wall is present since birth. [medicinenet.com]
