Effect of Foot Orthoses on Midfoot Pain and the Volume of Bone Marrow Lesions in the Midfoot: A Randomized Mechanism of Action Study

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Foot orthoses are thought to improve pain by potentially modifying internal mechanical forces. To test this, we explored whether foot orthoses can modify patterns of bone marrow lesions (BMLs) in people with midfoot pain. Methods Forty‐two people were recruited with midfoot pain, and magnetic resonance imaging–confirmed midfoot BMLs ...

Multivariate Multi-Objective Allocation in Stratified Random Sampling: A Game Theoretic Approach. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
We consider the problem of multivariate multi-objective allocation where no or limited information is available within the stratum variance. Results show that a game theoretic approach (based on weighted goal programming) can be applied to sample size ...

Impact of Positive Lifestyle Behaviors on Direct Health Care Cost Savings for Low Back Pain

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This study aimed to investigate the relationship between a previously purpose‐developed lifestyle behavior scale and health care cost savings related to low back pain (LBP). Methods This longitudinal study used data from the Australian Twin Back (AUTBACK) study. LBP and lifestyle behavior measures were collected at baseline. Physical activity

Response to Allopurinol and Febuxostat According to the Fractional Excretion of Urate in Men With Gout

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Body mass index (BMI), glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and pretreatment urate levels have been reported to influence the urate‐lowering response to allopurinol. We investigated whether the fractional excretion of uric acid (FEUA) also modulates this response and relates to oxypurinol concentrations.

ON SOME ASPECTS OF DEVELOPMENT OF THE GENERALISED ALLOCATION SCHEME

Transactions of the Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2019
In this paper we make an attempt to portray the current situation in the probabilistic combinatorics field where so-called generalised allocation scheme has been utilised. We offer a series of limit theorems for sums of independent identicallydistributed

Differential allocation by female zebrafish (Danio rerio) to different-sized males--an example in a fish species lacking parental care. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Organisms allocate resources to reproduction in response to the costs and benefits of current and future reproductive opportunities. According to the differential allocation hypothesis, females allocate more resources to high-quality males.
