Remote SensingEntrainment at the top of the planetary boundary layer (PBL) is of significant importance because it controls the upward growth of the PBL height. An option called ysu_topdown_pblmix, which provides a parameterization of fog-top entrainment, has been ...

Economic Development and Cultural Change, 2002 There is only one set of estimates of the prevalence of chronic undernutrition world-wide. These estimates emanate from the FAO and are claimed to be comparable across countries. In this paper it is demonstrated that the FAO has used an estimation model (and data) that induce bias in the estimated overall prevalence of undernutrition. The bias is found

The number of patients and events required to limit the risk of overestimation of intervention effects in meta-analysis--a simulation study. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 BackgroundMeta-analyses including a limited number of patients and events are prone to yield overestimated intervention effect estimates. While many assume bias is the cause of overestimation, theoretical considerations suggest that random error may be ...

British Journal of Psychiatry, 2011 SummaryClinicians regularly overestimate patients' capacity to make decisions. This may jeopardise their autonomous decision-making. It may lead to poor clinical outcomes for patients and has potential adverse legal consequences for clinicians. There is a need to use the legal principles of the Mental Capacity Act more rigorously.

Overestimating the Effects of Healthy Aging [PDF]
Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2015 Typical cognitive aging is often defined as aging free of dementia, and yet it does not seem to exclude dementia-related pathology. The most common type of dementia is Alzheimer’s disease (AD) – it is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects multiple cognitive domains, including memory, attention, reasoning, judgment, language, as well as ...

Impact of overestimation of fractional flow reserve by adenosine on anatomical–functional mismatch
Scientific Reports, 2022 Adenosine occasionally results in overestimation of fractional flow reserve (FFR) values, compared with other hyperemic stimuli. We aimed to elucidate the association of overestimation of FFR by adenosine with anatomically significant but functionally ...

Overestimation of left ventricular mass [PDF]
European Journal of Echocardiography, 2004 Overestimation of left ventricular mass: yes, but with which imaging? We read with interest the article by Kuhl et al.,1 which demonstrated that left ventricular mass using conventional M-mode echocardiography is overestimated, as compared to left ventricular mass using 3D echo. …

Behavioral SciencesCognitive biases have been proved to have a systematic influence on decision-making at both individual and social levels. This study investigated two forms of overconfidence—specifically, overestimation and overplacement—among young individuals ...
