Myostatin Levels in SMA Following Disease‐Modifying Treatments: A Multi‐Center Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study investigated myostatin levels in SMA patients receiving disease‐modifying therapies (DMTs) to understand their relationship with treatment duration and functional status. Methods Our study includes both cross‐sectional and longitudinal analyses of myostatin levels in treated SMA patients.

Accommodating Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) for Elective Courses Selection

IJIE (Indonesian Journal of Informatics Education), 2019
The determination of elective courses for students is one of many things that require some complex considerations. This complexity is motivated by psychological and non-psychological factors of human beings such as: learning motivation, lecturer and ...

Multi-Sensor Data Fusion Based on Improved Analytic Hierarchy Process

IEEE Access, 2020
As an important method for uncertainty modeling, Dempster-Shafer (DS) evidence theory has been widely applied in practical applications. However, the counter-intuitive results are often generated when fusing different sources of highly conflicting ...

Hilbert's metric and the analytic hierarchy process

Mathematical and Computer Modelling, 1996
This paper explores some of the properties of Hilbert's projective metric as a measure of closeness between two ratio scales in the context of the Analytic Hierarchy Process. Smallperturbation arguments are used to contrast the sensitivity and the distributional behavior of this metric with the more traditional Euclidean distance function, in ...

Plasma microRNA Signature as Predictive Marker of Clinical Response to Therapy During Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Despite the availability of effective therapies for Multiple Sclerosis (MS), the unpredictable nature of disease progression and the variability in individual treatment outcomes call for reliable biomarkers. This pilot study aims to investigate the potential of plasma circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) as predictive biomarkers for ...

A Clarification of “Remarks on the Analytic Hierarchy Process” [PDF]

Management Science, 1990
The replies by Saaty (1990) and by Harker and Vargas (1990) to my remarks on the Analytic Hierarchy Process (Dyer 1990) are useful in focusing attention on areas of disagreement regarding the AHP, and provide readers with sufficient information to form their own opinions.

Effects of Pharmacologic and Nonpharmacologic Interventions for the Management of Sleep Problems in People With Fibromyalgia: Systematic Review and Network Meta‐Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain and fatigue. Almost everyone with fibromyalgia has sleep problems. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of current interventions for the management of fibromyalgia‐related sleep problems.

Association Between Sleep Disturbance and Subsequent Pain Interference in Patients With Early Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This study investigated whether sleep disturbance can predict the extent to which pain interferes with daily functioning in patients with early rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods Data were from adults with early RA (joint symptoms ≤12 months) enrolled in the Canadian Early Arthritis Cohort between 2016 and 2023.

The approach to consistency in the analytic hierarchy process

Mathematical Modelling, 1987
AbstractIn his first book on the Analytic Hierarchy Process, T. L. Saaty left open several mathematical questions about the structure of the set of positive reciprocal matrices. In this paper we consider three of these questions: Given an eigenvector and all matrices which give rise to it, can one go from one of them to any order by making small ...

Whole‐Blood RNA Sequencing Profiling of Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis Treated With Tofacitinib

ACR Open Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) often fail to respond to therapies, including JAK inhibitors (JAKi), and treatment allocation is made via a trial‐and‐error strategy. A comprehensive analysis of responses to JAKi, including tofacitinib, by RNA sequencing (RNAseq) would allow the discovery of transcriptomic markers with a two‐fold ...
