There are basically two different opinions about the shape of the dose-effect at low doses. There are those who believe that very low doses of radiation carry no risk and that a threshold dose has to be exceeded before an effect will be induced. Others support the concept of radiation risk increasing linearly with dose from zero dose up, i. e. the linear no-threshold(LNT) concept.  2, record 1, English, - linear%20no%2Dthreshold

L'une des conséquences de l'hypothèse d'une relation linéaire sans seuil entre la dose et le risque pour la santé est que, dans une grande population, où tous les individus ont reçu de faibles doses de rayonnement, il est possible d'estimer statistiquement le nombre prévu des effets sans seuils qui pourraient être attribués à l'exposition, même si, à des doses très faibles, ces effets ne peuvent être distingués des incidences de cancer naturel.  1, record 1, French, - lin%C3%A9aire%20sans%20seuil

The Norton Scale, developed in the 1950s to assess pressure ulcer risk, should have its onset threshold moved from 14 to 15 or 16. Close monitoring of patients’ health and pressure ulcer risk factors remain key elements in accurate use of this scale. Regardless of which of the several pressure ulcer assessment scales is used, health care providers must realize scales indicate but do not predict. [...] The Braden Scale's validity for predicting patients at risk for pressure ulcers is affected by patient nutrition, patient history, and treatment regimen.  2, record 2, English, - Norton%20scale

Biological effects of ionizing radiation.... at the upper end of the scale, there is no radiation exposure so high it will guarantee that every exposed individual will suffer the effect. Nor at the lower end is any exposure so low that it will carry no risk to anyone of inducing the effect. These radiation effects are therefore said to have "no threshold. "Logically, it follows that any exposure to radiation, no matter how small, carries some risk and that any reduction in exposure, even from an already very low level, confers some benefit. However, it is not always appreciated that the absence of a "safe" threshold is a theoretical assumption and a safety precaution rather than something that can be proven. It is also not well understood that the toxic effects of radiation, for which there is no defined safe level, may not differ fundamentally from those of some chemical toxins for which a "safe" level in the body or in the environment has been declared.  1, record 6, English, - no%20threshold

Complicating the problem of public perceptions of the level of risk associated with radioactive wastes is the confusion induced by two fundamental principles of radio-biological and radiation protection theory. The first is the "no-threshold" hypothesis, and the second is the "as low as reasonably achievable, "or ALARA, principle. The first principle holds that there is no threshold below which exposure to radiation is entirely safe. The "no threshold" hypothesis-that any exposure to ionizing radiation, no matter how small, will increase the probability of a harmful consequence to an exposed individual-is an important scientific concept.... it is generally agreed that it is wise to err on the side of safety and work from the assumption that there is no safe level.  1, record 6, English, - no%20threshold
