| Variable | Coeff | Standard Error | Odds Ratio | 95% Confidence Interval for OR |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Acute salivary dysfunction, Grade ≥ 2 | ||||
| Combined parotid glands D98% (Gy) | 0.038 | 0.023 | 1.04 | 0.99–1.09 |
| Oral cavity EUD (n = 0.05) (Gy) | 0.103 | 0.043 | 1.11 | 1.02–1.21 |
| Age (5-year interval) | 0.079 | 0.074 | 1.08 | 0.94–1.25 |
