Deconstructing therapy outcome measurement with Rasch analysis of a measure of general clinical distress: the Symptom Checklist-90-Revised [PDF]

, 2006
Rasch analysis was used to illustrate the usefulness of item-level analyses for evaluating a common therapy outcome measure of general clinical distress, the Symptom Checklist-90-Revised (SCL-90-R; Derogatis, 1994).

General and Specific Combining Ability for Quantitative Characters in Sunflower

Journal of Agricultural Science, 2011
Seven sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) inbred lines were crossed in 77 half diallel to obtain 21 F 1 hybrids.These lines were used to estimate general combining ability (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) effects for yield, head diameter, 1,000-seed weight, plant height and oil content in order to select suitable parents for hybridization and ...

Prevalence and Trajectory of Household Material Hardship Among Children With Advanced Cancer

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Families of children with advanced cancer living in poverty experience inferior outcomes including poor parent mental health and worse child quality of life. Household material hardship (HMH: food, housing, transportation, and/or utility insecurity) is a modifiable poverty exposure—and potential intervention target—that ...

Studies on combining ability for grain yield and related traits in advanced breeding lines in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2020
The present investigation was undertaken to study the combining ability using 10 lines and 3 testers crossed in Line × Tester mating design. Resulting 30 F1’s were evaluated along with their parents in a replicated trial using randomized block design ...

Diallel analysis of selected yield-contributing traits in Okra [Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench]

Advances in Horticultural Science, 2022
Information on gene action controlling quantitative traits is important for effective selection. A five-parent diallel cross, which generated 10 F1 hybrids of okra (Abelmoscus esculentus) were evaluated during the early and late planting seasons of 2019

Feasibility and Preliminary Efficacy of Integrative Neuromuscular Training for Childhood Cancer Survivors: A Pilot Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) often exhibit early deficits in muscle and movement competence, which can compromise long‐term health. Integrative neuromuscular training (INT), a multifaceted approach combining fundamental movement activities with strength exercises, may help address these deficits during ...

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.
