Size Matters! Body Height and Labor Market Discrimination: A Cross-European Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes
Taller workers earn on average higher salaries. Recent research has proposed cognitive abilities and social skills as explanations for the height-wage premium. Another possible mechanism, employer discrimination, has found little support.

Body mass index has risen more steeply in tall than in short 3-year olds: serial cross-sectional surveys 1988-2003 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Objective: To monitor the changing relationship between body mass index ( BMI) and height in young children.Design: Annual cross-sectional surveys using health-visitor-collected routine data 1988 - 2003.Setting: Wirral, England.Participants: Fifty ...

Scalable Manufacturing of Radiation‐Tolerant Potentiometric Electrodes: A Systematic Transition from Laboratory to Semiautomated Fabrication

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Laboratory protocols for producing thin‐film pH electrodes for sterilized single‐use technologies have been successfully developed into a semiautomated workflow, with higher throughput and precision of membrane thickness. Accuracies are within 0.05 pH units versus ground truth, and uncertainty analysis reveals the largest sources of error to be derived

Correlation of the Lower Limb Nerve Conduction Velocity with Height and Leg Length

open access: yesKorean Journal of Clinical Laboratory Science
Nerve conduction study (NCS) is an essential test for the diagnosis and follow-up of peripheral neuropathy. NCS can objectively quantify peripheral nerve function. NCS is affected by physiological factors such as height, age, body mass index, etc. Hence,

Celeb-FBI: A Benchmark Dataset on Human Full Body Images and Age, Gender, Height and Weight Estimation using Deep Learning Approach [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
The scarcity of comprehensive datasets in surveillance, identification, image retrieval systems, and healthcare poses a significant challenge for researchers in exploring new methodologies and advancing knowledge in these respective fields. Furthermore, the need for full-body image datasets with detailed attributes like height, weight, age, and gender ...

Effective three-body interactions for bosons in a double-well confinement

open access: yes, 2018
When describing the low-energy physics of bosons in a double-well potential with a high barrier between the wells and sufficiently weak atom-atom interactions, one can to a good approximation ignore the high energy states and thereby obtain an effective ...

Profilometry‐Based Indentation Plastometry Testing of Tungsten at High Temperature

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Profilometry‐based indentation plastometry (PIP) allows extraction of stress‐strain curves from indent profiles. Tungsten is of industrial interest but is brittle at room temperature. It does plastically deform at higher temperatures. Excellent agreement is obtained between the two techniques in this regime, but PIP also gives plasticity ...

Is malnutrition declining? An analysis of changes in levels of child malnutrition since 1980

open access: yesBulletin of the World Health Organization
Nutritional status is the best global indicator of well-being in children. Although many surveys of children have been conducted since the 1970s, lack of comparability between them has made it difficult to monitor trends in child malnutrition.
