Cauchy problem for multiscale conservation laws: Application to structured cell populations [PDF]
In this paper, we study a vector conservation law that models the growth and selection of ovarian follicles. During each ovarian cycle, only a definite number of follicles ovulate, while the others undergo a degeneration process called atresia. This work is motivated by a multiscale mathematical model starting on the cellular scale, where ovulation or ...

Closed‐loop automated oxygen control in ventilated infants born at or near term: A crossover trial
Abstract Aim To determine if the use of closed‐loop automated oxygen control (CLAC) reduced the incidence and duration of hypoxemic episodes (SpO2 < 92%) in ventilated infants born at or above 34 weeks of gestation. Methods Infants were studied on two consecutive days for 6 h each day.

THE PREVALENCE OF BIRTH DEFECTS AMONG NON-HISPANIC ASIANS AND AMERICAN INDIANS/ALASKA NATIVES IN TEXAS, 1999-2015 [PDF]
Background: Birth defects are disproportionately higher among certain race/ethnic groups. We examined how birth defects prevalence differs among the less studied non-Hispanic (NH) Asian and any American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) populations, relative ...

Preferential associated anomalies in 818 cases of microtia in South america [PDF]
The etiology of microtia remains unknown in most cases. The identification of patterns of associated anomalies (i.e., other anomalies that occur with a given congenital anomaly in a higher than expected frequency), is a methodology that has been used for
