An Investigation of Hyperostosis Frontalis Interna in a Modern Anatomical Body Donor Population
ABSTRACT This research sought to examine the prevalence and severity of hyperostosis frontalis interna (HFI) in the Chicagoland anatomical body donor population. The study further aimed to elucidate potential demographic risk factors for HFI, including sex, age at death, and structural vulnerability index (SVI), as well as any common comorbidities, as ...

Guidelines for Scale Development and Validation
ABSTRACT Scales, serving as measurement instruments composed of carefully designed items intended to capture latent constructs, play a critical role in advancing consumer theory and marketing practice. Yet, developing and validating scales poses a formidable challenge due to the diverse methods required to ensure rigor and robustness.

Commissural Misalignment Following Valve‐in‐Valve Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation
ABSTRACT Background Data on commissural misalignment (CMA) during valve‐in‐valve transcatheter aortic valve implantation (ViV‐TAVI) for valve failure after surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) is scarce. Aims To study the impact of CMA on clinical and hemodynamic outcomes following ViV‐TAVI for failed SAVR.

Restricted Tweedie stochastic block models
Abstract The stochastic block model (SBM) is a widely used framework for community detection in networks, where the network structure is typically represented by an adjacency matrix. However, conventional SBMs are not directly applicable to an adjacency matrix that consists of nonnegative zero‐inflated continuous edge weights.
