Sample size determination for hypothesis testing on the intraclass correlation coefficient in a two‐way analysis of variance model

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Reliability evaluation is critical in fields such as psychology and medicine to ensure accurate diagnosis and effective treatment management. When participants are evaluated by the same raters, a two‐way ANOVA model is suitable to model the data, with the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) serving as the reliability metric.

Separation of the Aortic and Pulmonary Components of the Second Heart Sound via Alternating Optimization

IEEE Access
An algorithm for blind source separation (BSS) of the second heart sound (S2) into aortic and pulmonary components is proposed. It recovers aortic (A2) and pulmonary (P2) waveforms, as well as their relative delays, by solving an alternating optimization

From tetrachoric to kappa: How to assess reliability on binary scales

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Reliability is crucial in psychometrics, reflecting the extent to which a measurement instrument can discriminate between individuals or items. While classical test theory and intraclass correlation coefficients are well‐established for quantitative scales, estimating reliability for binary outcomes presents unique challenges due to their ...

Renal tubular acidosis in a mule mare

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Renal tubular acidosis (RTA) in horses is differentiated into type I (distal) and type II (proximal) forms. We report the diagnostic evaluation and treatment of type I RTA in a 13‐year‐old mule mare that was referred because of lethargy and inappetence of several weeks' duration as well as lack of manure, anorexia and mild colic for 3 days.

Training auscultatory skills: computer simulated heart sounds or additional bedside training? A randomized trial on third-year medical students

BMC Medical Education, 2010
Background The present study compares the value of additional use of computer simulated heart sounds, to conventional bedside auscultation training, on the cardiac auscultation skills of 3rd year medical students at Oslo University Medical School ...

Evaluation of Hemodialysis Arteriovenous Bruit by Deep Learning

Sensors, 2020
Physical findings of auscultation cannot be quantified at the arteriovenous fistula examination site during daily dialysis treatment. Consequently, minute changes over time cannot be recorded based only on subjective observations.

Borna disease virus infection: Retrospective case series of five horses and two donkeys in Switzerland

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Borna disease is an acute to subacute, rarely chronic non‐purulent meningoencephaylomyelitis affecting mainly horses and sheep. This case series describes the clinical signs, diagnosis, treatment, outcome and post‐mortem findings of five horses and two donkeys with this condition. The equids affected were geldings or mares of various breeds and
