Minimal Important Change and Minimal Clinically Important Difference in Pain and Function With Exercise in Hip Osteoarthritis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The objective of this study was to estimate the minimal important change (MIC) and minimal clinically important difference (MCID) for pain and physical function in individuals with hip osteoarthritis (OA) following a physiotherapist‐guided exercise intervention.

Effect of RICAS (Remote Ischemic Preconditioning on Collaterals of Atherosclerosis Stroke): Rationale and Design

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background As a noninvasive, low‐cost, nonpharmacological procedure with excellent properties of safety, remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) has been demonstrated to prevent recurrence of stroke among patients with ischemic stroke of large artery ...

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 ...

Effects of Causal Beliefs About Gout on Public Views About Gout Management: A Randomized Experimental Study

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Despite well‐described biologic causes, the public views unhealthy lifestyle choices as the primary cause of gout. This study investigated how causal beliefs about gout influence the public's views about its management. Methods In a randomized study, 201 members of the public viewed one of two 2‐minute videos about gout.

Task allocation in networks of satellites with Keplerian dynamics

, 2012
The management of distributed satellite systems requires the coordination of a large number of heterogeneous spacecraft. Task allocation in such a system is complicated by limited communication and individual satellite dynamics.

Pain and Patient‐Reported Physical Function Did Not Differ Among Body Composition Profiles in Patients With Hip Osteoarthritis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective To explore whether higher body fat and lower lean mass are associated with greater pain and worse patient‐reported physical function in individuals with hip osteoarthritis (OA). A secondary aim was to examine whether pain and patient‐reported physical function differ according to four body composition profiles: high body fat, low lean mass ...

Evaluating the current breadth of randomized control trials on cardiac arrest: A scoping review

Journal of the American College of Emergency Physicians Open
Objectives Despite the significant disease burden due to cardiac arrest, there is a relative paucity of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to inform definitive management.

If Not Only Numbers Count: Allocation of Equal Chances [PDF]

It is assumed that medical guidelines specify the appropriate amount of a divisible good which each individual should receive. Individual requirements and probabilities that the treatment is successful if an appropriate amount is received differ.

Memristive‐Gated RC‐Delay Synaptic Transistors for Time‐Encoded Analog in‐Memory Computing

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A Memristive‐Gated Transistor for Time‐Encoded Analog In‐Memory Computing — By exploiting the RC delay of a self‐rectifying interface‐type memristor, nonlinear I–V distortion is structurally bypassed, enabling 3‐bit nonvolatile memory, spike‐timing‐based analog encoding, and hardware‐calibrated reservoir‐computing validation within a unified device ...

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
