Purpose To determine the potential association between genitourinary (GU) toxicity and planning dose-volume parameters for GU pelvic structures after high-dose intensity modulated radiation therapy in localized prostate cancer patients. Methods and Materials A total of 268 patients who underwent intensity modulated radiation therapy to a prescribed dose of 86.4 Gy in 48 fractions during June 2004-
During the 20th century, a number of actors and institutions set out to develop taxonomies of the Swedish population. This thesis examines the most important social classification system, the social group, which despite its great importance in administrative, scientific, commercial, political and media contexts has received little attention in historical research. Invented by the Central Bureau
Background: Deferral of coronary revascularization is safe whether guided by instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) or by fractional flow reserve (FFR). We aimed to assess long-term outcomes in patients deferred from revascularization based on iFR or FFR in a large real-world population. Methods: From 2013 through 2017, 201,933 coronary angiographies were registered in the Swedish Web-System for Enha
The size and ‘quality’ of the population are issues of major concern in contemporary East Asia, as fertility rates are falling and competitiveness increasingly centers on ‘a fitting’ human capital. While Singapore is located in Southeast Asia geographically speaking, it is culturally linked to East Asia in terms of its heritage of Confucianism and the Chinese language.

This paper extends the application of quantile-based Bayesian inference to probability distributions defined in terms of quantiles of observable quantities. Quantile-parameterized distributions are characterized by high shape flexibility and parameter interpretability, making them useful for eliciting information about observables. To encode uncertainty in the quantiles elicited from experts, we p
In this study, we investigate how eco-social attitudes are interlinked with various modes of political action aimed at preventing environmental change and promoting social welfare. Using multiple correspondence analysis and cluster analysis, we explore the links between attitudes and political action, and associated socio-political characteristics, in the case of Sweden. Our results show a three-nIn this study, we investigate how eco-social attitudes are interlinked with various modes of political action aimed at preventing environmental change and promoting social welfare.

Background Fidanacogene elaparvovec, an adeno-associated virus (AAV) gene-therapy vector for hemophilia B containing a high-activity human factor IX variant (FIX-R338L/FIX-Padua), was associated with sustained factor IX activity in a phase 1-2a study. Methods We conducted a phase 3 open-label study of fidanacogene elaparvovec at a dose of 5×1011 vector genome copies per kilogram of body weight. Me
Recent technologies of district heating and cooling (DHC) systems integrate renewable energy sources and connect multiple heat producers and consumers to the same network. The resulting interactions may therefore cause the fluid in the pipe, or the energy carried by the system, to flow in both directions. This article presents a newly developed analytical method for evaluating the hydraulic states
Background People with serious respiratory illness frequently have a high symptom burden and may be prescribed supplemental oxygen therapy with the aims of reducing the severity of breathlessness and improving health-related quality of life (HRQoL). This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the effectiveness of oxygen therapy versus no oxygen on 1) breathlessness, 2) HRQoL and 3) ad
The unified patent court is currently one of the most intensely discussed areas in patent law. The Court will in essence have exclusive jurisdiction to hear disputes concerning European patents. In intellectual property law the possibility of interim measures such as interlocutory injunctions are of great importance, not the least in patent law. In Sweden, interlocutory injunctions and legal prov
This academic paper explores the current state of regulation in outer space, highlighting the existence of a legal vacuum and the absence of clear norms governing space activities. Existing treaties are often vague and inconclusive in their interpretations. Meanwhile, a new space race is emerging, with commercial entities taking the lead in the West, while global players such as China and Russia sDet går att konstatera att regleringen av rymden befinner sig i en form av rättsligt vakuum. Det saknas idag en tydliga normer för användningen av rymden. Tolkningar av de få traktat som ratificerats av majoritetens av världens länder är vaga och ofta intetsägande. Samtidigt håller en ny rymdkapplöpning på att växa fram. Den här gången har kommersiella aktörer lagt sig i framkant i väst medan glob
This paper is a master's thesis by Erik Kivilo and Carl Olofsson at the Faculty of Engineering (LTH) at Lund University. The research and writing took place during the fall of 2014 under the supervision of Magnus Wiktorsson at the Division of Mathematical Statistics at Lund University, and Per Thastrom at EY, Copenhagen. The thesis concerns prudent valuation of fair-valued nancial instruments
This study describes the safety culture at Lund University School of Aviation (LUSA) at two occasions, separated by a period of approximately one year, and the effects of the interventions that were carried out during this year. The study was conducted by means of two attitude measurement surveys with interviews after the first survey and opportunities for the respondents to propose improvements a
Prostitution as a construction - The social worker in the tension between society and the individual Discussions about prostitution seems to be of large interest for different feminist groups. The main discussions are about whether people sell sex as a result of free will, or if prostitution is a part of patriarchal structures, and that people selling sex, have been forced to do so in one way, or
