Considerations for crossover design in clinical study [PDF]
Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2021This article introduces a crossover design that is often used in clinical studies, with the advantage of comparing treatment effects within one study subject. In particular, the advantages and disadvantages of the two-period, two-sequence crossover design (2 × 2 or AB/BA crossover design), which is widely used in clinical practice, are identified, and

Dimensional crossover in quantum critical metallic magnets [PDF]
Phys. Rev. B 78, 235118 (2008), 2008Nearly magnetic metals often have layered lattice structures, consisting of coupled planes. In such a situation, physical properties will display, upon decreasing temperature or energy, a dimensional crossover from two-dimensional (2d) to three-dimensional (3d) behavior, which is particularly interesting near quantum criticality.

Band-edge BCS-BEC crossover in a two-band superconductor: physical properties and detection parameters [PDF]
Supercond. Sci. Technol. 27, 124002 (2014), 2014Superconductivity in iron-based, magnesium diborides, and other novel superconducting materials has a strong multi-band and multi-gap character. Recent experiments support the possibillity for a BCS-BEC crossover induced by strong-coupling and proximity of the chemical potential to the band edge of one of the bands.

Crossover phenomena in spin models with medium-range interactions and self-avoiding walks with medium-range jumps [PDF]
Phys.Rev. E64 (2001) 046130, 2001We study crossover phenomena in a model of self-avoiding walks with medium-range jumps, that corresponds to the limit $N\to 0$ of an $N$-vector spin system with medium-range interactions. In particular, we consider the critical crossover limit that interpolates between the Gaussian and the Wilson-Fisher fixed point.

Crossover from the parity-conserving pair contact process with diffusion to other universality classes [PDF]
PRE 79, 056115 (2009), 2009The pair contact process with diffusion (PCPD) with modulo 2 conservation (\pcpdt) [$2A\to 4A$, $2A\to 0$] is studied in one dimension, focused on the crossover to other well established universality classes: the directed Ising (DI) and the directed percolation (DP).

Universality and Crossover of Directed Polymers and Growing Surfaces [PDF]
, 1999We study KPZ surfaces on Euclidean lattices and directed polymers on hierarchical lattices subject to different distributions of disorder, showing that universality holds, at odds with recent results on Euclidean lattices. Moreover, we find the presence of a slow (power-law) crossover toward the universal values of the exponents and verify that the ...

Effects of Sucralose Supplementation on Glycemic Response, Appetite, and Gut Microbiota in Subjects with Overweight or Obesity: A Randomized Crossover Study Protocol [PDF]
Methods and ProtocolsSucralose stands as the most common non-nutritive sweetener; however, its metabolic effects have sparked significant controversy over the years. We aim to examine the effects of sucralose daily intake on glycemia, subjective appetite, and gut microbiota (

BCS-BEC crossover in a strongly correlated Fermi gas [PDF]
arXiv, 2007We study the BCS-BEC crossover in the strongly correlated regime of an ultra-cold rotating two component Fermi gas. Strong correlations are shown to generate an additional long-range interaction which results in a modified crossover region compared to the non-rotating situation.
