A Note on Collapsibility in DAG Models of Contingency Tables

open access: yes
Necessary and sufficient conditions for collapsibility of a directed acyclic graph (DAG) model for a contingency table are derived. By applying the conditions, we can easily check collapsibility over any variable in a given model either by using the ...

Reducing the collapsibility of clay using a cement–polymeric fibre admixture

open access: yes, 2018
The collapsibility of soils is one of the various phenomena by which soils pose threats to structures built upon them. This behaviour is more pronounced in clays and some silty sands in arid and semi-arid zones.

A MODIFIED COLLAPSE TEST FOR GYPSEOUS SOILS

open access: yesDiyala Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2010
Gypseous soil is one of soils which presents a risk for engineering structures, specially with high contamination of gypsum, because of the problem of collapse of soil under the footings, during soaking of these soils with water from any source.

Finite Element Analysis of Upper Airway in Ansa Cervicalis Stimulation for Obstructive Sleep Apnea

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 10, Page 4575-4584, October 2026.
We developed a subject‐specific FE model to investigate how ACS stabilizes the upper airway in OSA. Simulations demonstrate that caudal traction applied through the hyolaryngeal complex produces coordinated multilevel airway stabilization, with pronounced effects at the retropalatal and retro‐epiglottic regions under physiologic loading.

Laboratory Testing Regime for Quantifying Soil Collapsibility

open access: yes, 2014
Collapsible soils go through radical rearrangement of their particles when triggered by water, stress or/and vibration, causing loss of volume. This loss of volume in soil as seen in foundation failures has caused millions of dollars’ worth of damages to

Evaluating the Impact of Clonidine and Midazolam Premedication on Emergence Delirium in Pediatric Patients

open access: yesPediatric Anesthesia, Volume 36, Issue 10, Page 1290-1307, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Preoperative anxiety is common in children and is associated with emergence delirium—a distressing postoperative complication characterized by agitation and disorientation. Midazolam has long been the drug of choice for preoperative anxiolysis.

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Versus Mandibular Advancement Devices Impact on Cardio‐Metabolic Outcomes in Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Randomised Controlled Trials

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 35, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Obstructive sleep apnea contributes to cardiovascular morbidity, and its treatment may mitigate this risk. Continuous positive airway pressure and mandibular advancement devices are established therapies, but their comparative cardiometabolic effects remain uncertain.

Collapsibility of Graphical CG-Regression Models

open access: yes, 2004
CG-regressions are multivariate regression models for mixed continuous and discrete responses that result from conditioning in the class of conditional Gaussian (CG) models. Their conditional independence structure can be read off a marked graph.

Parapharyngeal Fat Pads as an Obesity‐Related Parameter for Apnea‐Hypopnea Index Severity

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 35, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT In this study, the association between obstructive sleep apnea severity and the parapharyngeal fat pad volume is examined in a population‐based sample. We included 680 participants who underwent standardised overnight polysomnography between 2008 and 2012 as part of the Study of Health in Pomerania in a sleep laboratory in Greifswald, Germany.
