Ratings of Overall Olfactory Function [PDF]

open access: yesChemical Senses, 2003
The aim of this study was to investigate the accuracy of self-reported ratings of olfactory function in 83 healthy subjects. Such ratings were compared with quantitative measures of olfactory function, as well as with ratings of nasal patency. In experiment 1 subjects rated olfactory function and nasal patency before olfactory testing, whereas in ...

Heart Rate Variability and Cognitive Function: A Systematic Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
Background: Autonomic dysfunctions may precede the development of cognitive impairment, but the connection between these dimensions is unclear. This systematic review aims to analyze the relationship between heart rate variability (HRV) and cognitive ...

MODELING NUTRIENTS UPTAKE AS A FUNCTION OF PLANT GROWTH RATE [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Soil Sciences and Agricultural Engineering, 2002
The present study was carried out at field scale to predicte the relative uptake of some nutrient elements as a function of relative growth rate{RGR). The test crop was Broad bean (Vicia faba, L.) variety Giza 461.

Rate Distortion Function of Gaussian Asymptotically WSS Vector Processes

open access: yesEntropy, 2018
In this paper, we obtain an integral formula for the rate distortion function (RDF) of any Gaussian asymptotically wide sense stationary (AWSS) vector process.

Effects of High Flavanol Dark Chocolate on Cardiovascular Function and Platelet Aggregation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Regular consumption of chocolate and cocoa products has been linked to reduced cardiovascular mortality. This study compared the effects of high flavanol dark chocolate (HFDC; 1064mg flavanols/day for 6 weeks) and low flavanol dark chocolate (LFDC; 88mg ...

An empirical capital market rate function for South Africa

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Economic and Management Sciences, 2001
The aim of this paper is to explain the determinants of the South African long-term interest rate. A market-related approach is followed which explains interest rate determination on the basis of the relationships between the capital market and other ...

Shatter Functions with Polynomial Growth Rates [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics, 2019
We study how a single value of the shatter function of a set system restricts its asymptotic growth. Along the way, we refute a conjecture of Bondy and Hajnal which generalizes Sauer's Lemma.

Renal function: Estimation of glomerular filtration rate [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Biochemistry, 2007
The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is widely accepted as the best overall measure of kidney function. American National Kidney Foundation guidelines define chronic kidney disease (CKD) by either a GFR of less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 or the presence of ...

Comparison of Multiple Hazard Rate Functions [PDF]

open access: yesBiometrics, 2015
Summary Many robust tests have been proposed in the literature to compare two hazard rate functions, however, very few of them can be used in cases when there are multiple hazard rate functions to be compared. In this article, we propose an approach for detecting the difference among multiple hazard rate functions.
