Fit for purpose: German contributions to the new ICRP recommendations.
Review in Radiation and environmental biophysics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The current international radiation protection system is based on the International Commission on Radiological Protection's (ICRP) policy proposal, Publication 103, issued in 2007. Recently, the ICRP has announced its goal to extend the discussion on radiation protection issues beyond the inner bodies, to engage the worldwide radiation protection community. A key step in this direction was the digital workshop "The Future of Radiological Protection" in October 2021 which initiated an in-depth international, scientific debate on the future design of the radiation protection systems. To contribute to this international debate, the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Nuclear Safety and Consumer Protection (BMUV (now BMUKN)) and the Federal Office for Radiation Protection (BfS) in Germany hosted a workshop in Munich in November 2024, bringing together national and international experts to assess and prioritise key topics relevant to the future of radiological protection from a German perspective. The primary aim of the Munich workshop was to exchange scientific and regulatory perspectives in Germany, particularly with regard to the ICRP's "Fit for Purpose" process. Critical topics such as the revision of the justification principle, the refinement of the key criteria for radiation-related risk assessment and impact assessment were central themes of the discussions. This article presents the most important topics and recommendations discussed related to radiation detriment, dose coefficients, societal aspects, non-human biota, impact assessment, radiological emergencies and malicious events as well as the justification and optimisation of medical radiation applications.
