Evidence for a Correlation of Melt Fragility Index With Topological Phases of Multicomponent Glasses

Frontiers in Materials, 2019
Scores of glass compositions in the equimolar GexAsxSe100−2x ternary system are synthesized across the 0 < x < 26% range, and their homogeneity tracked by ex-situ Raman profiling.

Fragility Index and Fragility Quotient in Randomized Controlled Trials on Corticosteroids in ARDS Due to COVID-19 and Non-COVID-19 Etiology

Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2021
Background: The effectiveness of corticosteroids in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and COVID-19 still remains uncertain. Since ARDS is due to a hyperinflammatory response to a direct injury, we decided to perform a meta-analysis and an ...

Growth, History, or Institutions? What Explains State Fragility in Sub-Saharan Africa [PDF]

We explore the determinants of state fragility in sub-Saharan Africa. Controlling for a wide range of economic, demographic, geographic and istitutional regressors, we find that institutions, and in particular the civil liberties index and the number of ...

On clinical trial fragility due to patients lost to follow up

BMC Medical Research Methodology, 2021
Background Clinical trials routinely have patients lost to follow up. We propose a methodology to understand their possible effect on the results of statistical tests by altering the concept of the fragility index to treat the outcomes of observed ...

The Fragility Index is Typically Misinterpreted and of Low Value: Clinical Trials are Designed to be Fragile.

Arthroscopy: The Journal of Arthroscopy And Related
The Fragility Index (FI) is defined as the number of patients whose outcome would need to change to reverse a statistically significant finding to a nonsignificant finding.
