Radiation sickness can be acute or chronic. [...] It may take several days or weeks to develop the chronic form of the disease. A person with chronic radiation sickness has usually been exposed to lower doses over a longer period of time. This happens in the case of radioactive fallout from a nuclear explosion or accident. It may also be caused by long-term exposure to radiation in the workplace. 4, record 1, English, - chronic%20radiation%20sickness

Accident de Lilo : une étude allemande revient sur le cas de deux militaires géorgiens. Ces deux patients font partie d'un groupe de soldats ayant reçu en 1997 une irradiation accidentelle liée à des sources abandonnées. Celle-ci avait engendré chez ces sujets des lésions cutanées radio-induites accompagnées de signes systémiques (arrêt de la spermatogenèse, modification des taux plasmatiques d'hormones androgènes). Se plaignant de troubles persistants (fatigue, cicatrisation incomplète), malgré le traitement suivi en 1997, ils ont fait l'objet d'une nouvelle prise en charge. Six ans après l'irradiation, des anomalies génétiques (translocations et chromosomes dicentriques au niveau des lymphocytes) et immunologiques (expression accrue de protéines d'adhésion, augmentation du rapport LT CD4/LT CD8) persistent bien que les niveaux d'hormones androgènes et la spermatogenèse soient rétablis. Ceci suggère le développement d'un syndrome chronique d'irradiation et pourrait laisser présager l'apparition de troubles futurs. 1, record 1, French, - syndrome%20chronique%20d%27irradiation

[...] las sequías ocurrieron en 1967 y 1972, exponiendo la costa seca del lago y permitiendo al viento esparcir partículas radioactivas. En 1967 una gran cantidad de partículas fueron derramadas [...] lloviendo sobre 63 asentamientos y 41, 500 personas. La combinación de la descarga, las nubes y las sequías expuso a más de 40,000 personas a la radiación y fue la causa de por lo menos 935 casos diagnosticados como enfermedad por radiación crónica en la región de Chelyabinsk [...] 1, record 1, Spanish, - enfermedad%20por%20radiaci%C3%B3n%20cr%C3%B3nica
