Undertreatment of hypercholesterolaemia: a population-based study [PDF]

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 2003
Aims  To assess the level of undertreatment of hypercholesterolaemia in the general population, taking intra‐person variability in serum cholesterol concentrations into account, and to identify determinants of undertreatment of hypercholesterolaemia.Methods  In this cross‐sectional study, data from two population‐based surveys on cardiovascular disease

PopTract: Population-Based Tractography [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging, 2011
White matter fiber tractography plays a key role in the in vivo understanding of brain circuitry. For tract-based comparison of a population of images, a common approach is to first generate an atlas by averaging, after spatial normalization, all images in the population, and then perform tractography using the constructed atlas.

Regularized evolutionary population-based training [PDF]

Proceedings of the Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference, 2021
Metalearning of deep neural network (DNN) architectures and hyperparameters has become an increasingly important area of research. At the same time, network regularization has been recognized as a crucial dimension to effective training of DNNs. However, the role of metalearning in establishing effective regularization has not yet been fully explored ...

Population-Based Screening for CKD [PDF]

American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 2009
Organizations both in the United States and globally have advocated for screening for chronic kidney disease with a urine test for proteinuria followed by subsequent testing with creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate determinations. Screening for a disease, such as chronic kidney disease, can have value, but a decision to screen is not ...

Biomarkers in population-based studies [PDF]

Canadian Medical Association Journal, 2010
The practice of collecting biospecimens in population-based studies is becoming more widespread.[1][1] The new combinations of data arising from these enterprises offer opportunities for gaining insight into the foundations of population health that previously could not come from clinical data ...

The experience of the BRIDGE-Health - Platform for population-based registries: need of harmonized procedures and Methods

, 2016
Health information are widely used for evidence-based policy making, planning and evaluating research and preventive actions. An integrated effort to collect, process and communicate health information is needed.

Population bases and the 2011 Census [PDF]

Population Trends, 2011
In an increasingly complex society there are a number of different population definitions that can be relevant for users, beyond the standard definition used in counting the population. This article describes the enumeration base for the 2011 Census and how alternative population outputs may be produced. It provides a background as to how the questions

Population-Based Biobanking

Genes
Population-based biobanking is an essential element of medical research that has grown substantially over the last two decades, and many countries are currently pursuing large national biobanking initiatives. The rise of individual biobanks is paralleled by various networking activities in the field at both the national and international level, such as

Population Based Image Imputation [PDF]

, 2017
We present an algorithm for creating high resolution anatomically plausible images consistent with acquired clinical brain MRI scans with large inter-slice spacing. Although large databases of clinical images contain a wealth of information, medical acquisition constraints result in sparse scans that miss much of the anatomy.

Population-based Cohort Studies [PDF]

Epidemiologic Reviews, 1998
In population-based cohort studies, a sample, or even the entirety, of a defined population is selected for longitudinal assessment of exposure-outcome relations. Because of their typically high cost and logistic complexities, population-based cohort studies generally evaluate multiple hypotheses, some defined a priori as well as some suggested in the ...
