The aim was to determine whether recent epidemiologic studies of low-LET radiation, particularly those at low doses and\/or low dose rates (LD\/LDR), broadly support the LNT model of carcinogenic risk or, on the contrary, demonstrate sufficient evidence that the LNT model is inappropriate for the purposes of radiation protection. An updated review was needed because a considerable number of reports of radiation epidemiologic studies based on new or updated data have been published since other major reviews were conducted by national and international scientific committees. The Commentary provides a critical review of the LD\/LDR studies that are most directly applicable to current occupational, environmental and medical radiation exposure circumstances. This Memorandum summarises several of the more important LD\/LDR studies that incorporate radiation dose responses for solid cancer and leukemia that were reviewed in Commentary No. 27. In addition, an overview is provided of radiation studies of breast and thyroid cancers, and cancer after childhood exposures. Non-cancers are briefly touched upon such as ischemic heart disease, cataracts, and heritable genetic effects. To assess the applicability and utility of the LNT model for radiation protection, the Commentary evaluated 29 epidemiologic studies or groups of studies, primarily of total solid cancer, in terms of strengths and weaknesses in their epidemiologic methods, dosimetry approaches, and statistical modelling, and the degree to which they supported a LNT model for continued use in radiation protection. Recommendations for how to make epidemiologic radiation studies more informative are outlined. The NCRP Committee recognises that the risks from LD\/LDR exposures are small and uncertain. The Committee judged that the available epidemiologic data were broadly supportive of the LNT model and that at this time no alternative dose-response relationship appears more pragmatic or prudent for radiation protection purposes.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1088\/1361-6498\/aad348","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,7,13]],"date-time":"2018-07-13T13:03:47Z","timestamp":1531487027000},"page":"1217-1233","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1088\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":113,"title":["Implications of recent epidemiologic studies for the linear nonthreshold model and radiation protection"],"prefix":"10.1088","volume":"38","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6842-2248","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"R E","family":"Shore","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"New York University School of Medicine"},{"name":"Radiation Effects Research Foundation"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"H L","family":"Beck","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"US Department of Energy, New York,"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J D","family":"Boice","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements, Bethesda, Maryland,"},{"name":"Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee,"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"E A","family":"Caffrey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Radian Scientific, Huntsville, Alabama,"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"S","family":"Davis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Seattle, Washington,"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"H A","family":"Grogan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cascade Scientific, Bend, Oregon,"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"F A","family":"Mettler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, New Mexico,"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"R J","family":"Preston","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"US Environmental Protection Agency, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina,"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J E","family":"Till","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Risk Assessment Corporation, Neeses, South Carolina,"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2934-0987","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"R","family":"Wakeford","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Manchester"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"L","family":"Walsh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Zurich"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"L T","family":"Dauer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York,"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"266","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,8,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"jrpaad348bib1","author":"NCRP","year":"2018","type":"book"},{"key":"jrpaad348bib2","article-title":"Epidemiological studies of radiation and cancer","author":"UNSCEAR","year":"2008","type":"book"},{"key":"jrpaad348bib3","author":"NAS-NRC (National Academy of Sciences-National Research Council)","year":"2008","type":"book"},{"key":"jrpaad348bib4","author":"NCRP","year":"2015","type":"book"},{"key":"jrpaad348bib5","author":"NCRP","year":"2012","type":"report"},{"key":"jrpaad348bib6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1064","DOI":"10.1080\/09553002.2017.1319090","type":"journal-article","article-title":"Risk of solid cancer in low dose-rate radiation epidemiological studies and the dose-rate effectiveness factor","volume":"93","author":"Shore","year":"2017","journal-title":"Int.
