Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Obesity, defined by body mass index (BMI) ≥30 kg/m2, is a risk factor for functional limitations in people with knee osteoarthritis (OA). However, function varies among such individuals. Our objective was to evaluate the implications of obesity subtypes on longitudinal patterns of physical functioning in people with or at risk for knee OA ...

Nonlinear renewal theory under growth conditions
The paper concerns renewal theory for processes of the form (Sn [Xi]n), where (Sn) is a random walk with positive drift and [Xi]n are perturbations with random and deterministic parts.

Applications of Renewal Theory to Pattern Analysis
, 2016 In this thesis, renewal theory is used to analyze patterns of outcomes for discrete random variables. We start by introducing the concept of a renewal process and by giving some examples. It is then shown that we may obtain the distribution of the number

NONLINEARLY PERTURBED RENEWAL EQUATIONS : THE NON-POLYNOMIAL CASE
, 2012 Models of nonlinearly perturbed renewal equations with non-polynomial perturbations are studied. Exponential asymptotic expansions are given for the solutions to the perturbed renewal equations under consideration.

Neighborhood Socioeconomic Status and Short‐Term Functional Outcomes in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Individuals with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) can accumulate functional status (FS) impairment. We evaluated the association between neighborhood socioeconomic disadvantage, as measured by the Area Deprivation Index (ADI), and FS in a national SLE sample.
