Predictive equations of maximum respiratory mouth pressures: A systematic review
Background Maximum inspiratory (Pimax) and expiratory (Pemax) mouth pressures are commonly used to detect respiratory muscle weakness resorting to predictive equations established for healthy people.

Multivariable Predictive Control with Filtered Variables in Prediction Equations [PDF]
The paper is focused on an implementation of a multivariable predictive controller with a colouring filter C in a disturbance model. The filter is often essential for practical applications of predictive control based on input-output models. It is commonly considered as a design parameter because it has direct effects on closed loop performance.

Role of the nonperturbative input in QCD resummed Drell-Yan $Q_T$-distributions [PDF]
We analyze the role of the nonperturbative input in the Collins, Soper, and Sterman (CSS)'s $b$-space QCD resummation formalism for Drell-Yan transverse momentum ($Q_T$) distributions, and investigate the predictive power of the CSS formalism.

TT Mutant Homozygote of Is a Key Factor for Increasing Basal Metabolic Rate and Resting Metabolic Rate in Korean Elementary School Children [PDF]
We investigated the contribution of genetic variations of KLF5 to basal metabolic rate (BMR) and resting metabolic rate (RMR) and the inhibition of obesity in Korean children. A variation of KLF5 (rs3782933) was genotyped in 62 Korean children.

Measurement of Resting Energy Expenditure with Indirect Calorimetry and Predictive Equations in Healthy Young Adults: A Cross-sectional Study [PDF]
Introduction: Resting Energy Expenditure (REE) is the main determinant of energy requirements. An inaccurate estimation of REE can lead to the over or under-prediction of energy requirements.

Introduction: Predictive equations (PE) are used in lieu of indirect calorimetry (IC) due to cost and limited resources; however, these equations may not be as accurate as IC in estimating resting energy expenditure (REE) in critically ill patients ...

Positive Surge Propagation in Sloping Channels [PDF]
A simplified model for the upstream propagation of a positive surge in a sloping, rectangular channel is presented. The model is based on the assumptions of a flat water surface and negligible energy dissipation downstream of the surge, which is ...

Optimal Prediction for Hamiltonian Partial Differential Equations [PDF]
Optimal prediction methods compensate for a lack of resolution in the numerical solution of time-dependent differential equations through the use of prior statistical information. We present a new derivation of the basic methodology, show that field-theoretical perturbation theory provides a useful device for dealing with quasi-linear problems, and ...
