Hospital Readmission After Traumatic Brain Injury Hospitalization in Community‐Dwelling Older Adults

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To examine the risk of hospital readmission after an index hospitalization for TBI in older adults. Methods Using data from the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study, we used propensity score matching of individuals with an index TBI‐related hospitalization to individuals with (1) non‐TBI hospitalizations (primary analysis)

Functional Connectivity Linked to Cognitive Recovery After Minor Stroke

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Patients with minor stroke exhibit slowed processing speed and generalized alterations in functional connectivity involving frontoparietal cortex (FPC). The pattern of connectivity evolves over time. In this study, we examine the relationship of functional connectivity patterns to cognitive performance, to determine ...

An extension of the projected gradient method to a Banach space setting with application in structural topology optimization [PDF]

, 2015
For the minimization of a nonlinear cost functional $j$ under convex constraints the relaxed projected gradient process $\varphi_{k+1} = \varphi_{k} + \alpha_k(P_H(\varphi_{k}-\lambda_k \nabla_H j(\varphi_{k}))-\varphi_{k})$ is a well known method.

Effects of Biological Sex and Age on Cerebrospinal Fluid Markers—A Retrospective Observational Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis is a key diagnostic tool for neurological diseases. To date, only a few studies have investigated in larger cohorts the effect of age and biological sex on diagnostic markers extracted from CSF. Methods For this retrospective observational study, 4163 CSF findings (2012–2020) were evaluated.

Gossip Dual Averaging for Decentralized Optimization of Pairwise Functions [PDF]

, 2016
In decentralized networks (of sensors, connected objects, etc.), there is an important need for efficient algorithms to optimize a global cost function, for instance to learn a global model from the local data collected by each computing unit.

Feasibility and Tolerability of Performing Portable MRI for Neurological Disorders in an Outpatient Neurology Clinic: A Prospective Cohort

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Accessing brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can be challenging, especially for underserved patients, which may lead to disparities in neurological diagnosis. Method This mixed‐methods study enrolled adults with one of four neurological disorders: mild cognitive impairment or dementia of the Alzheimer type, multiple sclerosis ...
