Evaluation of liver stiffness measurement–based scores in liver transplantation recipients
Abstract Combining bioclinical parameters with liver stiffness measurement (LSM) has improved the diagnostic performance of vibration‐controlled transient elastography (VCTE) for detection of advanced fibrosis in patients with chronic liver disease. However, this approach has not yet been tested in liver transplantation (LT) recipients.

Alcohol consumption and incident heart failure in men and women
Alcohol consumption and incident heart failure (HF) in men and women. Abstract Aims Regular heavy alcohol consumption may lead to the development of alcohol‐related cardiomyopathy and symptomatic heart failure (HF) later in life. However, the dose–response relationship between alcohol consumption and risk for incident HF, and whether these associations

Abstract Obesity and heart failure (HF) represent two growing pandemics. In the general population, obesity affects one in eight adults and is linked with an increased risk for HF. Obesity is even more common in patients with HF, where it complicates the diagnosis of HF and is linked with worse symptoms and impaired exercise capacity. Over the past few

On HRTF Notch Frequency Prediction Using Anthropometric Features and Neural Networks [PDF]
High fidelity spatial audio often performs better when produced using a personalized head-related transfer function (HRTF). However, the direct acquisition of HRTFs is cumbersome and requires specialized equipment. Thus, many personalization methods estimate HRTF features from easily obtained anthropometric features of the pinna, head, and torso.
