Entitled to Property: How Breaking the Gender Barrier Improves Child Health in India [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Non-unitary household models suggest that enhancing women's bargaining power can influence child health, a crucial determinant of human capital and economic standing throughout adulthood. We examine the effects of a policy shift, the Hindu Succession Act Amendment (HSAA), which granted inheritance rights to unmarried women in India, on child health ...

Oxygen targeting in preterm infants: a physiological interpretation. [PDF]

, 2015
Randomized controlled trials evaluating low-target oxygen saturation (SpO2:85% to 89%) vs high-target SpO2 (91% to 95%) have shown variable results regarding mortality and morbidity in extremely preterm infants.

PedSleepMAE: Generative Model for Multimodal Pediatric Sleep Signals [PDF]

2024 IEEE EMBS International Conference on Biomedical and Health Informatics (BHI), Houston, TX, USA, 2024, pp. 1-8
Pediatric sleep is an important but often overlooked area in health informatics. We present PedSleepMAE, a generative model that fully leverages multimodal pediatric sleep signals including multichannel EEGs, respiratory signals, EOGs and EMG. This masked autoencoder-based model performs comparably to supervised learning models in sleep scoring and in ...

Design and Actuator Optimization of Lightweight and Compliant Knee Exoskeleton for Mobility Assistance of Children with Crouch Gait [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Pediatric exoskeletons offer great promise to increase mobility for children with crouch gait caused by cerebral palsy. A lightweight, compliant and user-specific actuator is critical for maximizing the benefits of an exoskeleton to users. To date, pediatric exoskeletons generally use the same actuators as adult exoskeletons, which are heavy and ...
