Use of hand-held gamma-ray spectrometry to assess decay of granite ashlars in historical buildings of NW Spain (Barbanza, Galicia)
Gamma-ray spectrometry (GRS) provides the gamma radiation dose and K, u, and th content from ashlars. • GRS do not show significant differences of water content between façades and heights. • GRS shows differences in the weathering degree of ashlars that show decay features. • U/Th and U/K ratios are helpful to assess the weathering degree of ashlars. Non-destructive methods are widely demanded in research on Cultural Heritage. In the last years,…
Living in the Mountains. Late Mesolithic/Early Neolithic Settlement in Northwest Portugal
In the 1990s, a research project was developed to identify, in the mountainous areas of the Northwest (NW) of Portugal, the existence of an occupation model associated with the last hunter–gatherer prehistoric communities in the region. Therefore, a set of consistent and detailed field surveys took place in the mountains of NW Portugal, leading to the discovery of the archaeological site named “Rock Shelter 1 of Cerdeira Valley,” a granite rock s…
Salt Weathering of Natural Stone
Natural stone is an important component of historical heritage (buildings and art objects such as sculptures or rock engravings), and it is still widely used in contemporary works. Soluble salts are the main erosive agent in the built environment, and we review here comparative studies that subject the same rock type to testing with different salt solutions. The results mostly support the accepted notion of the major impact of sodium sulphate, al…
Using in situ gamma ray spectrometry (GRS) exploration of buried archaeological structures
P1-36 Data sources on drug safety evaluation
Introduction Harmful effects of medicines should be reviewed with similar rigour as therapeutic benefits. Most evidence on harms is obtained from post marketing surveillance, so the use of meta-analysis to pool safety information presents challenges of inherent biases and differences in study designs. Yet, it9s crucial to provide an accurate safety profile of pharmacological interventions. We aimed to describe the data sources of published meta-a…
