Sequential Fixation Behavior in Road Marking Recognition: Implications for Design

Journal of Eye Movement Research
This study examined how drivers’ eye fixations change before, during, and after recognizing road markings, and how these changes relate to driving speed, visual complexity, cognitive functions, and demographics. 20 licensed drivers viewed on-board movies

Early Body Mass Index z‐Score Change and Resolution of Severe Malnutrition in Children With Sickle Cell Anemia in a Low‐Income Setting: A Prospective Single‐Arm Extension Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) in low‐income settings are at risk of severe malnutrition, but optimal nutritional management has not been established. We evaluated an intensified ready‐to‐use therapeutic food (RUTF) regimen in children with persistent severe malnutrition after initial treatment and assessed whether early ...
