On the formation of TW Crv optical radiation
© 2016, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.We present the analysis of the optical radiation of the young pre-cataclysmic variable TW Crv. Spectroscopic and photometric observations were obtained at the SAO RAS 6-m BTA telescope and at the Russian-Turkish RTT-150 telescope. The light curves of the system posses nearly sinusoidal shapes with the amplitudes of Δm >

On the Structure, Covering, and Learning of Poisson Multinomial Distributions
An $(n,k)$-Poisson Multinomial Distribution (PMD) is the distribution of the sum of $n$ independent random vectors supported on the set ${\cal B}_k=\{e_1,\ldots,e_k\}$ of standard basis vectors in $\mathbb{R}^k$. We prove a structural characterization of

Count every newborn; a measurement improvement roadmap for coverage data. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The Every Newborn Action Plan (ENAP), launched in 2014, aims to end preventable newborn deaths and stillbirths, with national targets of ≤12 neonatal deaths per 1000 live births and ≤12 stillbirths per 1000 total births by 2030. This requires

Perinatal mortality in eastern Africa: A systematic review and meta‐analysis
Abstract Background Every day, over 5000 stillbirths and more than 6000 newborn deaths are estimated to occur worldwide, the majority in sub‐Saharan Africa and South Asia. Estimates, however, rely on data that might underestimate these deaths. Further, outside major categories such as preterm birth, infection, and complications at delivery, little is ...

Abstract Background Quantitative assessment of myocardial perfusion using 13N‐ammonia PET with compartmental modeling enables evaluation of myocardial flow reserve (MFR) and prediction of patient prognosis. However, the reliability of these assessments can depend on the analytical methods used for quantitation.
