Placental Abruption and Perinatal Mortality: Abnormal Placentation and Spontaneous Abortion as Contributors to Left Truncation Bias

open access: yesPaediatric and Perinatal Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Generally, studies in perinatal epidemiology restrict cohort entry to 20 weeks of gestation, but exposures and outcomes may occur earlier. This restriction may introduce left truncation bias. Objectives To examine the impact of left truncation bias when estimating the causal effect of abruption on perinatal mortality in the context ...

ACV: an arithmetic circuit verifier [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of International Conference on Computer Aided Design, 2002
Based on a hierarchical verification methodology, we present an arithmetic circuit verifier ACV, in which circuits expressed in a hardware description language, also called ACV, are symbolically verified using Binary Decision Diagrams for Boolean functions and multiplicative Binary Moment Diagrams (*BMDs) for wordlevel functions.

Surviving the Post–Biafran War by Navigating the Igbo People's Igba‐Boi Apprenticeship Model of Entrepreneurship

open access: yesStudies in Ethnicity and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT After the Nigerian Civil War, the Biafrans started from scratch through trades, mostly adopting the igba‐boi apprenticeship system in Nigeria. This paper examines the impact of the igba‐boi entrepreneurship system in post‐Biafra for the survival of the Igbo identity.

Quantum Tunneling and Unitarity Features of an S-matrix for Gravitational Collapse

open access: yes, 2009
Starting from the semiclassical reduced-action approach to transplanckian scattering by Amati, Veneziano and one of us and from our previous quantum extension of that model, we investigate the S-matrix expression for inelastic processes by extending to ...

Acyclovir‐Resistant Herpes Simplex Virus in Pediatric Patients Undergoing Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant: A Case Series

open access: yesTransplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
This retrospective case series of acyclovir‐resistant HSV infection in pediatric patients undergoing allogeneic HSCT discusses the clinical course, associated complications, and treatment, including side effects. We propose the first algorithm for investigating and managing acyclovir‐resistant HSV infections in pediatric HSCT recipients, highlighting ...

HHV‐8/KSHV in Solid Organ Transplantation: Current Gaps of Knowledge and Future Directions

open access: yesTransplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
Risk mitigation strategies, including donors/recipients screening, DNAemia monitoring in recipients at risk, CNI‐to‐mTOR inhibitors switch, antivirals, and rituximab for KICS, may mitigate the impact of HHV‐8/KSHV infection in SOT. This review provides an update on KICS, identifies research gaps, and summarizes advances in screening and management ...

Large-N estimates of universal amplitudes of the CP^{N-1} theory and comparison with the JQ model

open access: yes, 2008
We present computations of certain finite-size scaling functions and universal amplitude ratios in the large-N limit of the CP^{N-1} field theory. We pay particular attention to the uniform susceptibility, the spin stiffness and the specific heat.

Covariant velocity and density perturbations in quasi-Newtonian cosmologies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Recently a covariant approach to cold matter universes in the zero-shear hypersurfaces (or longitudinal) gauge has been developed. This approach reveals the existence of an integrability condition, which does not appear in standard non-covariant ...
