Abstract:

Warfarin is one of the most widely used anticoagulants in the world. Treatment is complicated by a large inter-individual variation in the dose needed to reach adequate levels of anticoagulation i.e. INR 2.0 – 3.0. The objective of this thesis was to evaluate which factors, mainly genetic but also non-genetic, that affect the response to warfarin in terms of required maintenance dose, efficacy and safety with special focus on warfarin dose prediction. Through candidate gene and genome-wide studies, we have shown that the genes CYP2C9 and VKORC1 are the major determinants of warfarin maintenanc

Abstract:

Dose plans developed for stereotactic radiosurgery are assessed by studying so called Dose-Volume Histograms. Since it is hard to compare an individual dose plan with doseplans created for other patients, much experience and knowledge is lost. This thesis therefore investigates a machine learning approach to predicting such Dose-Volume Histograms for a new patient, by learning from previous dose plans.The training set is chosen based on similarity in terms of tumour size. The signed distances between voxels in the considered volume and the tumour boundary decide the probability of receiving a

Abstract:

In recent years, machine learning has become utilized in external radiation therapy treatment planning. This involves automatic generation of treatment plans based on CT-scans and other spatial information such as the location of tumors and organs. The utility lies in relieving clinical staff from the labor of manually or semi-manually creating such plans. Rather than predicting a deterministic plan, there is great value in modeling it stochastically, i.e. predicting a probability distribution of dose from CT-scans and delineated biological structures. The stochasticity inherent in the RT trea

Abstract:

The proposed human intestinal absorption prediction model is applied to over 900 pharmaceuticals and has about 82.5% true prediction power. This study will provide a screening tool that can differentiate well absorbed and poorly absorbed drugs in the early stage of drug discovery and development. This model is based on fundamental physicochemical properties and can be applied to virtual compounds. The maximum well-absorbed dose (i.e., the maximum dose that will be more than 50 percent absorbed) calculated using this model can be utilized as a guideline for drug design, synthesis, and pre-clini

Abstract:

Construction of radiotherapy treatments for cancer is a laborious and time consuming task. At the same time, when presented with a treatment plan, an oncologist can quickly judge whether or not it is suitable. This means that the problem of constructing these treatment plans is well suited for automation. This thesis investigates a novel way of automatic treatment planning. The treatment planning system this pipeline is constructed for provides dose mimicking functionality with probability density functions of dose–volume histograms (DVHs) and spatial dose as inputs.

Abstract:

Cancer is a group of diseases that are characterized by abnormal cell growth and is considered a leading cause of death globally. There are a number of different cancer treatment modalities, one of which is radiation therapy. In radiation therapy treatment planning, it is important to make sure that enough radiation is delivered to the tumor and that healthy organs are spared, while also making sure to account for uncertainties such as misalignment of the patient during treatment. To reduce the workload on clinics, data-driven automated treatment planning can be used to generate treatment plan

Introduction. The individual response to vitamin K antagonists (VKA) is highly variable, being influenced by clinical factors and genetic variants of enzymes that are involved in the metabolism of VKA (CYP2C)) and vitamin K (VKORC1). Currently, the dose of VKA is adjusted based on measurements of the prothrombin time. In the last years, mathematical algorithms were developed for estimating the appropriate VKA dose, based on different mathematical approaches working on clinical and genetic data.

Abstract:

Background To combat one of the leading causes of death worldwide, lung cancer treatment techniques and modalities are advancing, and the treatment options are becoming increasingly individualized. Modern cancer treatment includes the option for the patient to be treated with proton therapy, which can in some cases spare healthy tissue from excessive dose better than conventional photon radiotherapy. However, to assess the benefit of proton therapy compared to photon therapy, it is necessary to make both treatment plans to get information about the Tumour Control Probability (TCP) and the Norm

Abstract:

It is an FDA requirement that the“first in human" dose be based on pre-clinical animal model efficacy and safety testing to ensure a safe entry into Phase I clinical trials. Pre-clinical safety and efficacy models range from mouse to non-human primates. Interspecies scaling of pharmacokinetic parameters is therefore important for predicting drug doses in human clinical trials, although it continues to be less than optimal. Understanding the disposition of the compound in different species through in vitro and in vivo experiments is necessary to ensure appropriate species are selected for human

Abstract:

Within our research group Bayesian Risk Solutions we have coined the idea of a Bayesian Risk Management (BRM). It claims (1) a more transparent and diligent data analysis as well as (2)an open-minded incorporation of human expertise in risk management. In this dissertation we formulize a framework for BRM based on the two pillars Hardcore-Bayesianism (HCB) and Softcore-Bayesianism (SCB) providing solutions for the claims above. For data analysis we favor Bayesian statistics with its Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulation algorithm. It provides a full illustration of data-induced uncertaint

Abstract:

Screening and early detection are essential for the management and control of most diseases. It is important for women to practice routine health care that includes both clinical and self examinations. Today, many women go without health care due to barriers which prevent them from obtaining adequate care. The present study was designed to investigate, using the Health Belief Model, whether there is a difference between heterosexual and lesbian women in obtaining gynecological exams. Responses from 23 8 participants, 70 heterosexuals and 168 lesbians, indicated that the Health Belief Model was

Abstract:

Research with adolescence demonstrates school involvement and attachment greatly influences students' outcomes and choices outside of their school environment. Many studies have addressed whether delinquent behavior while in adolescence is associated with various aspects of schooling, but there is limited research looking at the long-term effects schooling has on criminal behavior in adulthood. The purpose of this study was to assess whether students' attachment to their school or involvement in extracurricular activities at school shapes students' outcomes in adulthood--specifically their cri

Abstract:

A previsão de séries temporais financeiras tem sido um tópico popular da literatura nos últimos anos. Contudo, embora muitos estudos de previsão de séries temporais foquem na previsão exata de valores futuros, defendemos que este tipo de previsão é de difícil aplicação em cenários reais, sendo mais vantajoso transformar este problema de previsão em um problema de classificação que indique se a série temporal irá subir ou descer no próximo período. Neste trabalho é proposto um método de compra e venda de ações baseado nas previsões feitas por dois ensembles de redes neurais adaptados para difer

Abstract:

<p> The literature on person-organization (P-O) fit has been plagued with inconsistencies in the conceptualization, operationalization and measurement of P-O fit. Despite numerous studies examining the relationship between P-O fit and outcomes, these inconsistencies in measurement and operationalization have led to mixed findings concerning specific individual outcomes. The goal of this dissertation was to address some of these inconsistencies by examining the relationship between P-O fit, using perceived and subjective measures of fit, and attitudinal and behavioral outcomes.
