    Sammanfattning : The research described in this thesis, focuses on some activities on the demand side that could reduce peak load in electricity system by using consumer flexibility i.e. by increasing the demand side response to signals coming from the energy market. LÄS MER

  2. 22. Radiation Oncology Data and Modelling Side Effects after Radiation Therapy

    Författare :Caroline Olsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dose and side effect data; dose-volume response; fractionation effect; LQ model; sequential two-phase radiotherapy; head and neck cancer; parotid gland; xerostomia; pelvic radiotherapy; gynecological cancer; pubic bone; pain; data integration; xerostomia;

    Sammanfattning : Although modern radiation therapy techniques have the ability to conform the dose distribution of ionizing radiation tightly around the volume to be treated, unwanted irradiation to surrounding organs remains a problem. The probability of a side effect arising in the normal tissue of a patient after radiation therapy can be modelled by sigmoid mathematical functions known as normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) models.

  3. 23. Distributional Side Effects of Tax Policies: An Analysis of Tax Avoidance and Congestion Tolls

    Författare :Hanna Armelius; Lars Hultkrantz; Jonas Agell; Michael Lundholm; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Economics; Congestion tolls; Tax avoidance; Income distribution; Distributional effects; Nationalekonomi; Economics; Nationalekonomi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of three self-contained essays.Essay 1This essay examines the effects of tax avoidance on saving and income distribution. In an intertemporal model taxes can be avoided through asset trade. We find that including an avoidance response to taxation will increase all the negative distortions of increased tax progressivity.

  4. 24. Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty : patient selection, long- term outcomes, and side effects

    Författare :Joar Sundman; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP) is the most common surgical treatment for adult patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Its short-term efficacy, as measured through polysomnography, is well-established and has been demonstrated in two randomized controlled trials in recent years. LÄS MER

  5. 25. Cardiac side-effects of adjuvant radiotherapy for early breast cancer

    Författare :Gábor Gyenes; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Early breast cancer; Radiation therapy; Ischemic heart disease; Side-effects; Microvascular domage; Long-term effects; Myocardial disease; Technetium 99-m sestamibi perfusion scintigraphy; Prospective study;

    Sammanfattning : It is well established that adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) reduces loco-regional recurrences in breast cancer. The effect on overall survival on the other hand is much debated. LÄS MER
