Insights into the natural history of metachromatic leukodystrophy from interviews with caregivers

Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2019
Background and methods Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is a rare, autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease caused by deficient activity of arylsulfatase A.

Applying Bayesian Neural Networks to Event Reconstruction in Reactor Neutrino Experiments

, 2008
A toy detector has been designed to simulate central detectors in reactor neutrino experiments in the paper. The electron samples from the Monte-Carlo simulation of the toy detector have been reconstructed by the method of Bayesian neural networks (BNN ...

Classification of one-dimensional quasilattices into mutual local-derivability classes

, 2002
One-dimensional quasilattices are classified into mutual local-derivability (MLD) classes on the basis of geometrical and number-theoretical considerations. Most quasilattices are ternary, and there exist an infinite number of MLD classes.

The use of algorithms to predict surface seawater dimethyl sulphide concentrations in the SE Pacific, a region of steep gradients in primary productivity, biomass and mixed layer depth [PDF]

, 2011
Dimethyl sulphide (DMS) is an important precursor of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN), particularly in the remote marine atmosphere. The SE Pacific is consistently covered with a persistent stratocumulus layer that increases the albedo over this large ...

Identification of neurodegeneration indicators and disease progression in metachromatic leukodystrophy using quantitative NMR‐based urinary metabolomics

JIMD Reports, 2022
Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is a lysosomal storage disease caused by a deficiency of the arylsulfatase A (ARSA). ARSA deficiency leads to an accumulation of sulfatides primarily in the nervous system ultimately causing demyelination. With evolving

Disagreement Lost and Found [PDF]

, 2017
According to content-relativist theories of moral language, different speakers use the same moral sentences to say different things. Content-relativism faces a well-known problem of lost disagreement.

Observed Relative Contributions of Anomalous Heat Fluxes and Effective Heat Capacity to Sea Surface Temperature Variability

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023
Sea surface temperatures (SSTs) vary not only due to heat exchange across the air‐sea interface but also due to changes in effective heat capacity as primarily determined by mixed layer depth (MLD).

The initial mass function of early-type galaxies [PDF]

, 2009
We determine an absolute calibration of the initial mass function (IMF) of early-type galaxies, by studying a sample of 56 gravitational lenses identified by the SLACS Survey.

The burden of disease in metachromatic leukodystrophy: results of a caregiver survey in the UK and Republic of Ireland

Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases
Background Metachromatic Leukodystrophy (MLD) is a rare, autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease characterised by the progressive loss of motor function and severe decline in cognitive function.

Maximum-Likelihood Detection of Soliton with Timing Jitter

, 2004
Using the maximum-likelihood detector (MLD) of a soliton with timing jitter and noise, other than walk-out of the bit interval, timing jitter does not degrade the performance of MLD.
