Describing variability of intensively collected longitudinal ordinal data with latent spline models
Population health studies increasingly collect longitudinal, patient-reported symptom data via mobile devices, offering unique insights into experiences outside clinical settings, such as pain, fatigue or mood.

Mesoscale Whole‐Brain T2*‐Weighted and Associated Quantitative MRI in Humans at 10.5 T
ABSTRACT Purpose To demonstrate mesoscale whole‐brain T2*‐weighted (T2*w) MRI at 10.5 T, quantify R2* relaxation rate and magnetic susceptibility (χ), and evaluate T2*w contrast at such high field strength. Methods Multi‐echo GRE (ME‐GRE) data were collected in healthy adults at 0.5 mm isotropic resolution at 10.5 T.

MR Spectroscopy Without Water Suppression Using the Gradient Impulse Response Function
ABSTRACT PurposeNon‐water‐suppressed proton spectroscopy, 1H‐MRS, is desirable, as retaining the strong water resonance can facilitate automated online data corrections, internal concentration referencing, and monitoring of line narrowing effects in functional MRS. Removal of the water suppression module can also mitigate magnetization transfer effects

ABSTRACT We study the accuracy of a variety of parametric price duration‐based realized variance estimators constructed via various financial duration models and compare their forecasting performance with the performance of various nonparametric return‐based realized variance estimators.

ABSTRACT The Mesosphere and Lower Thermosphere establish an essential connection between Earth's lower atmosphere and upper atmosphere because wind patterns essential for atmospheric movement also influence energy distribution and chemical movements during geomagnetic storms that disrupt satellite operations and space weather prediction systems.

Penalized spline models and applications [PDF]
Penalized spline regression models are a popular statistical tool for curve fitting\ud problems due to their flexibility and computational efficiency. In particular, penalized\ud cubic spline functions have received a great deal of attention.
openaire
Frailty models are very useful for analysing correlated survival data, when observations are clustered into groups or for recurrent events. The aim of this article is to present the new version of anR package called frailtypack.

Quantitative Diffusion and T2 Mapping Using RF‐Modulated Phase‐Based Gradient Echo Imaging
ABSTRACT Purpose To introduce and evaluate the feasibility of a novel RF‐phase modulated gradient echo (GRE) method for quantitative diffusion MRI, aimed at mitigating geometric distortion and enabling high‐resolution 3D quantitative diffusion/T2 mapping as a complementary alternative to conventional DWI.

Architecture of lower leg muscles in children: Reference curves and potential mechanisms of growth
Muscle architecture (physiological cross‐sectional area, fascicle lengths and pennation angle) was measured from multimodal MRI scans of the lower legs of 197 children aged ≤15 years. We showed that lower leg muscle volumes (product of PCSA and fascicle length) increase primarily through increases in PCSA (transverse growth) rather than increases in ...

Distinct Prescription Patterns Emerge Years Before ALS Diagnosis: A Nationwide Registry‐Based Study
Objective The prodromal phase of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is poorly defined. We aimed to characterize prescription drug use patterns in the pre‐diagnostic period by analyzing nationwide prescription data to identify the earliest divergence between individuals who developed ALS and matched healthy controls.
