Critical Appraisal of Guidelines for Daytime Urinary Incontinence in Children: Comparison of Recommendations on Treatment

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims This study aimed to compare the recommendations on therapy from currently available guidelines on non‐neurogenic daytime urinary incontinence (DUI) in children. Methods We conducted a systematic search for guidelines on non‐neurogenic DUI in children.

Polynomials involving the floor function [PDF]

Math. Scand. 76 (1995), no. 2, 194--200, 1995
Some identities are presented that generalize the formula x^3 = 3x floor(x floor(x)) - 3 floor(x) floor(x floor(x)) + floor(x)^3 + 3 frac(x) frac(x floor(x)) + frac(x)^3 to a representation of the product x_0x_1 ... x_{n-1}.

Critical Appraisal of Guidelines for Daytime Urinary Incontinence in Children: Evaluation of Quality and Recommendations on Diagnostics

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims This study aimed to evaluate the quality of currently available guidelines on non‐neurogenic daytime urinary incontinence (DUI) in children and compare their content regarding the assessment of a child with DUI. Methods We conducted a systematic search for guidelines on non‐neurogenic DUI in children. A multidisciplinary team assessed the

Deep Learning to Segment Pelvic Bones: Large-scale CT Datasets and Baseline Models [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Purpose: Pelvic bone segmentation in CT has always been an essential step in clinical diagnosis and surgery planning of pelvic bone diseases. Existing methods for pelvic bone segmentation are either hand-crafted or semi-automatic and achieve limited accuracy when dealing with image appearance variations due to the multi-site domain shift, the presence ...

Risk Prediction Models for Stress Urinary Incontinence in Pregnant and Postpartum Women: A Systematic Review and Critical Appraisal

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Many studies have developed or validated prediction models to estimate the risk of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in pregnant and postpartum women, but the quality of the model development and model applicability remains unknown. Objectives To systematically review and critically evaluate currently available prediction models for

Experimental investigation of the flow downstream of a dysfunctional bileaflet mechanical aortic valve [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Mechanical heart valve replacement is the preferred alternative in younger patients with severe symptomatic aortic valve disease. However, thrombus and pannus formations are common complications associated with bileaflet mechanical heart valves. This leads to risks of valve leaflet dysfunction, a life threatening event.

Medial Injury/Dysfunction Induced Granulation Tissue Repair is the Pathogenesis of Atherosclerosis [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Atherosclerosis, a chronic lesion of vascular wall, remains a leading cause of death and loss of life years. Classical hypotheses for atherosclerosis are long-standing mainly to explain atherogenesis. Unfortunately, these hypotheses may not explain the variation in the susceptibility to atherosclerosis.

A Pilot Study of Capturing Patient Reported Outcome Measures in the Australasian Pelvic Floor Procedure Registry

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) are increasingly being introduced in clinical registries. The Australasian Pelvic Floor Procedure Registry (APFPR) is a clinical quality registry which records information about procedures for stress urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse.
