Evaluating a Pragmatic Strength Alternative for Frailty Measurement and Assessing Its Predictive Capacity Against Established Frailty Instruments in Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Frailty occurs prematurely in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and is associated with poor health outcomes. We compared the performance of four frailty instruments, including a pragmatic alternative measure using chair sit‐to‐stand (STS), and evaluated their abilities to predict poor health outcomes.

Does Long‐Term Lower Extremity Strength Training in Adults With Knee Osteoarthritis and Varus Alignment Reduce Knee Joint Loading During Gait?

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We examined whether 18 months of strength training in individuals with knee varus alignment and medial tibiofemoral osteoarthritis (OA) reduced knee joint loads during walking compared to an attention control group. Methods This study was a secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial that compared the effects of strength training to a ...

Entropy function for rotating extremal black holes in very special geometry

open access: yes, 2007
We use the relation between extremal black hole solutions in five- and in four-dimensional N=2 supergravity theories with cubic prepotentials to define the entropy function for extremal black holes with one angular momentum in five dimensions.

Rheumatologic Manifestations of Patients With Type B Insulin Resistance

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The objectives of this study were to identify laboratory and clinical features associated with type B insulin resistance (TBIR), a rare condition caused by autoantibodies that inhibit the insulin receptor, most frequently occurring in the setting of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and to increase awareness of this rare, life‐threatening ...

Homogeneous extremal function for a ball in ℝ²

open access: yes, 1999
We point out relations between Siciak's homogeneous extremal function $Ψ_B$ and the Cauchy-Poisson transform in case $B$ is a ball in ℝ². In particular, we find effective formulas for $Ψ_B$ for an important class of balls.

The extremal index for GARCH(1,1) processes

open access: yes, 2012
Generalised autoregressive conditional heteroskedastic (GARCH) processes have wide application in financial modelling. To characterise the extreme values of this process the extremal index is required.

Minimal Important Change and Minimal Clinically Important Difference in Pain and Function With Exercise in Hip Osteoarthritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The objective of this study was to estimate the minimal important change (MIC) and minimal clinically important difference (MCID) for pain and physical function in individuals with hip osteoarthritis (OA) following a physiotherapist‐guided exercise intervention.

Extremal Kähler Metrics on Ruled Surfaces

open access: yes, 2020
We will define a special type of Riemannian metric, called an admissible Kähler metric, on a certain type of 4-dimensional manifold. A metric of this type is determined by a positive and smooth function F(z) which satisfies certain boundary conditions ...
