There are errors in the values for LARS for thyroid cancer throughout the paper. Please see below for a description of the errors and their corrections. There are errors in the last two sentences of the Abstract. The correct sentences are: Lifetime attributable risks (LARs) of thyroid cancers due to ingestion were 1.7–37×10 (Case 1) and 5.6–79×10 (Case 2) in Fukushima City, 0.73–13×10 in Tokyo,...

introduction linking resolution global climate models to local scale as a micro climatic process is a significant issue. recently, attempts have been made by the climatology scientists to develop dynamics and statistical downscaling methods to express climate change at a local and regional scale. two general techniques are been used for downscaling of the output of general circulation models (g...

OBJECTIVES To investigate how bowel dysfunction after sphincter-preserving rectal cancer treatment, known as low anterior resection syndrome (LARS), is perceived by rectal cancer specialists, in relation to the patient's experience. DESIGN Questionnaire study. SETTING International. PARTICIPANTS 58 rectal cancer specialists (45 colorectal surgeons and 13 radiation oncologists). RESEARCH...

set up to see who can catch the most. The Environment Education Foundation hosted its third ‘lionfish derby’ last month off Florida, outside the reserve, with more than $3,000 in prize money for the team catching the most fish — 109 were killed. In the waters around the Bahamas, which don’t have the same protection as Florida Keys, more than 2,000 lionfish have been killed over the past two yea...

In numerical dosimetry, the recent advances in high performance computing led to a strong reduction of the required computational time to assess the specific absorption rate (SAR) characterizing the human exposure to electromagnetic waves. However, this procedure remains time-consuming and a single simulation can request several hours. As a consequence, the influence of uncertain input paramete...
