Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Purpose Dorsal rhizotomy, or spinal dorsal nerve root lesioning, is a surgical procedure used to treat intractable nerve pain by selectively severing sensory afferent nerve roots. This study aimed to evaluate whether multiparametric MRI, including diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), quantitative magnetization transfer (qMT), chemical exchange ...

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims For recording the compound muscle action potential (CMAP) of the deltoid muscle, the reference electrode over the acromion (Ac) has been used to avoid contamination of responses from other arm muscles to the distal tendon (DT). A recent article recommended the sternum (St) as the reference electrode.

Personalized Differential Privacy for Ridge Regression Under Output Perturbation
Naval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.ABSTRACT The increased application of machine learning (ML) in sensitive domains requires protecting the training data through privacy frameworks, such as differential privacy (DP). Traditional DP enforces a uniform privacy level ε$$ \varepsilon $$, which bounds the maximum privacy loss that each data point in the dataset is allowed to incur.
