ABSTRACT

Based on current knowledge the criteria for diagnosing nonviability in early intrauterine pregnancy and diagnostic algorithm in pregnancies of unknown location have changed. For either an intrauterine pregnancy of uncertain viability or a pregnancy of unknown location, the consequences of false positive diagnosis of nonviability or false negative diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy may be dire: harming of a potentially normal intrauterine pregnancy or a life-threatening rupture from tubal pregnancy. This review aims to present the most important results of current studies on this topic with their recommendations and to improve patient care reducing the risk of inadvertent harm to potentially normal pregnancies.

ABSTRACT

In the present work, moss samples collected in Slovakia and Belarus were assayed with respect to gamma-emitting radionuclides. The results for (137)Cs and (210)Pb are discussed. Moss was used for the first time in Belarus, as a biological indicator of radioactive environmental pollution in consequence of the Chernobyl accident in 1986. In Belarus, the maximum activity of (137)Cs was observed in the Gomel region near Mazyr (6830 Bq/kg) and the minimum activity in the Vitebsyevsk Region near Luzhki-Yazno (5 Bq/kg). "Hot spots" were also observed near the towns Borisow and Yuratsishki. The results of measurements of (137)Cs in moss samples collected in 2000, 2006 and 2009 in the same localities of Slovakia are presented and compared with the results of air monitoring of (137)Cs carried out in Slovakia from 1977 until 2010. Measurements of the (210)Pb concentration in moss samples collected over the territory of Slovakia showed, that the median value exceed 2.3 times median value of (210)Pb obtained for Belarus moss. For that reason, the inhalation dose for man from (210)Pb and (137)Cs in Slovakia is more than twice as high as in Belarus, in spite of the initially very high (137)Cs exposure in the latter country.
