Myotonic dystrophy type 1: A comparison between the adult‐ and late‐onset subtype

Muscle &Nerve, Volume 67, Issue 2, Page 130-137, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Introduction/Aims Although the extent of muscle weakness and organ complications has not been well studied in patients with late‐onset myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), adult‐onset DM1 is associated with severe muscle involvement and possible life‐threatening cardiac and respiratory complications.

Diagnosis of Pediatric Obstructive Sleep Apnea via Face Classification with Persistent Homology and Convolutional Neural Networks [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Obstructive sleep apnea is a serious condition causing a litany of health problems especially in the pediatric population. However, this chronic condition can be treated if diagnosis is possible. The gold standard for diagnosis is an overnight sleep study, which is often unobtainable by many potentially suffering from this condition.

Obesity treatment initiation, retention, and outcomes in the Veterans Affairs MOVE! Program among rural and urban veterans

Obesity Science &Practice, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 784-793, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Objective Rural veterans have high obesity rates. Yet, little is known about this population's engagement with the Veterans Affairs (VA) weight management program (MOVE!). The study objective is to determine whether MOVE! enrollment, anti‐obesity medication use, bariatric surgery use, retention, and outcomes differ by rurality for veterans ...
