Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Frailty occurs prematurely in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and is associated with poor health outcomes. We compared the performance of four frailty instruments, including a pragmatic alternative measure using chair sit‐to‐stand (STS), and evaluated their abilities to predict poor health outcomes.

A Coordinated Resource Allocation Algorithm for Infrastructure-Based Relay Networks
EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, 2008 A resource allocation algorithm for orthogonal frequency division multiple access-based and infrastructure-based relay networks is introduced in this paper. The algorithm is applied in the downlink of a single cell. Channel state information is exploited

Rate allocation for serial concatenated convolutional codes
IET Communications, 2007 The paper proposes an analytical method to solve the rate allocation problem in serial concatenated convolutional codes (SCCCs). The goal is to find the best rate allocation between the inner and the outer constituent convolutional codes of an SCCC for constant overall code rate, interleaver size and complexity.

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.

Rate Distortion Analysis and Bit Allocation Scheme for Wavelet Lifting-Based Multiview Image Coding
EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, 2009 This paper studies the distortion and the model-based bit allocation scheme of wavelet lifting-based multiview image coding. Redundancies among image views are removed by disparity-compensated wavelet lifting (DCWL).
