Validation of the Pediatric Arthritis Ultrasound Scoring System for the Elbow, Wrist, and Finger Joints in Children With Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis. [PDF]
Arthritis Care Res (Hoboken)Objective We aimed to validate the Pediatric Arthritis Ultrasound Scoring System (PAUSS) for upper extremity joints in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Methods Children with JIA were evaluated for elbow, wrist, or finger arthritis by clinical examination (CE) and musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSUS) with images scored according to the ...

Meyers type estimates for approximate solutions of nonlinear elliptic equations and their applications [PDF]
Discrete & Continuous Dynamical Systems - B, 2006 In this paper we obtain Meyers type regularity estimates for approximate solutions of nonlinear elliptic equations. These estimates are used in the analysis of a numerical scheme obtained from a numerical homogenization of nonlinear elliptic equations.

Exercise repetition rate measured with simple sensors at home can be used to estimate Upper Extremity Fugl-Meyer score after stroke [PDF]
Frontiers in Rehabilitation Sciences, 2023 IntroductionIt would be valuable if home-based rehabilitation training technologies could automatically assess arm impairment after stroke. Here, we tested whether a simple measure—the repetition rate (or “rep rate”) when performing specific exercises as measured with simple sensors—can be used to estimate Upper Extremity Fugl-Meyer (UEFM) score ...

Struggles with Survey Weighting and Regression Modeling [PDF]
, 2007 The general principles of Bayesian data analysis imply that models for survey responses should be constructed conditional on all variables that affect the probability of inclusion and nonresponse, which are also the variables used in survey weighting and

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Dynamin 1 is a GTPase protein involved in synaptic vesicle fission, which facilitates the exocytosis of neurotransmitters necessary for normal signaling. Pathogenic variants in the DNM1 gene are associated with intractable epilepsy, often manifested as infantile spasms at onset, developmental delay, and a movement disorder, and are located in ...

Nanovoid nucleation by vacancy aggregation and vacancy-cluster coarsening in high-purity metallic single crystals [PDF]
, 2011 A numerical model to estimate critical times required for nanovoid nucleation in high-purity aluminum single crystals subjected to shock loading is presented. We regard a nanovoid to be nucleated when it attains a size sufficient for subsequent growth by

Singularities of Nonlinear Elliptic Systems
, 2013 Through Morrey's spaces (plus Zorko's spaces) and their potentials/capacities as well as Hausdorff contents/dimensions, this paper estimates the singular sets of nonlinear elliptic systems of the even-ordered Meyers-Elcrat type and a class of quadratic ...

Estimation of Yu and Meyer bivariate stochastic volatility model by iterated filtering
Przegląd Statystyczny, 2023 In financial applications, understanding the asset correlation structure is crucial to tasks such as asset pricing, portfolio optimisation, risk management, and asset allocation. Thus, modelling the volatilities and correlations of multivariate stock market returns is of great importance.

Meyer and schilz function to estimate common bean seed water content evaluated by radiofrequency [PDF]
Scientia Agricola, 2007 Derivation of density-independent dielectric functions for moisture determination in grains is important for the implementation of on-line sensors in automated driers. The object of this study was to investigate the Meyer and Schilz function [(epsilon'1)/epsilon"] for indirect and non-destructive water content measurement of seeds of common bean by ...
