Olympic participation and performance since 1896
We analyze the decision to participate and performance at the Modern Olympic Summer Games at the country level. We use an unbalanced panel of 118 countries over all 24 editions of the Summer Games since 1896. The main focus of the paper is on economic, geographic and demographic determinants of Olympic participation and success. We estimate the impact of income per capita, population size, home...
متن کاملThe reliability of measurements of pelvic radiographs in infants.
We have evaluated the reliability of the measurement of radiological indicators in developmental dysplasia of the hip. Three observers each independently assessed 60 pelvic radiographs from infants aged from 3 to 36 months. Errors from the true value of a single measurement made by a single observer (E1), of the average of two measurements by a single observer (E2), and of the average of two si...
متن کاملCalculation of air gaps between bolus and skin on the dose received from the skin
Introduction: In the last few decades, a lot of monte carlo codes have been introduced for medical applications. For close - to - surface tumors, the surface of the skin can be used to increase the surface dose so that all or part of the bunch area can fall into bolus, thereby increasing the dose of the skin. The air gaps between bolus and skin can affect the dose of...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Entrance Surface Dose (ESD) and Radiation Dose to the Radiosensitive Organs in Pediatric Pelvic Radiography
Background Patients' dosimetry is crucial in order to enhance radiation protection optimization and to deliver low radiation dose to the patients in a radiological procedure. The aim of this study was to assess the entrance surface dose (ESD) and radiation dose to the radiosensitive organs in pediatric pelvic radiography. Materials and Methods The studied population included 98 pediatric patien...
متن کاملThe relationship of skin type with minimal erythema dose (MED)
Background: Phototherapy is an important modality in dermatology and the number of skin diseases which can be controlled with it is increasing. In order to start treatment, the first dose of phototherapy is determined by measurement of minimal erythema dose (MED) in each patients individually or according to patient’s skin type. Objective: To determine the relationship of skin type with MED in ...
