Disparity between General Symptom Relief and Remission Criteria in the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS): A Post-treatment Bifactor Item Response Theory Model. [PDF]

, 2017
Objective: Total scale scores derived by summing ratings from the 30-item PANSS are commonly used in clinical trial research to measure overall symptom severity, and percentage reductions in the total scores are sometimes used to document the efficacy of

Disease Severity and Activity in Bronchiectasis: A Paradigm Shift in Bronchiectasis Management [PDF]

Tuberculosis and Respiratory Diseases
Bronchiectasis has an increasing prevalence and substantial clinical and economic burden. Therefore, physicians should identify patients with bronchiectasis at high risk of disease progression to ensure optimal management in advance. The heterogeneity of

FGF14 GAA Intronic Expansion in Unsolved Adult‐Onset Ataxia in the Care4Rare Canada Consortium

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCA) represent a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of progressive neurodegenerative diseases with prominent cerebellar atrophy. Recently, a novel pathogenic repeat expansion in intron 1 of FGF14 was identified, causing adult‐onset SCA (SCA27B). We aimed to determine the proportion

Music Interventions in Hyperacute and Acute Stroke Patients: A Randomized Controlled Pilot Feasibility Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Music interventions have been shown to have beneficial effects on hemodynamic parameters, pain, and anxiety in various medical settings. However, music interventions in the setting of acute stroke have not been studied. The objective of this trial was to perform a pilot feasibility study of music interventions in the setting of acute

Examining a staging model for anorexia nervosa: empirical exploration of a four stage model of severity. [PDF]

, 2017
Background: An illness staging model for anorexia nervosa (AN) has received increasing attention, but assessing the merits of this concept is dependent on empirically examining a model in clinical samples.

Regularization of linear ill-posed problems involving multiplication operators [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
We study regularization of ill-posed equations involving multiplication operators when the multiplier function is positive almost everywhere and zero is an accumulation point of the range of this function. Such equations naturally arise from equations based on non-compact self-adjoint operators in Hilbert space, after applying unitary transformations ...

Exponential relaxation data analysis by parametrized regularization of severely ill-posed Fredholm integral equations of the first kind [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
This paper presents a novel approach to construct regularizing operators for severely ill-posed Fredholm integral equations of the first kind by introducing parametrized discretization. The optimal values of discretization and regularization parameters are computed simultaneously by solving a minimization problem formulated based on a regularization ...
