A Comparison of Active and Simulated Chiropractic Manipulation as Adjunctive Treatment for Childhood Asthma

New England Journal of Medicine, 1998
Chiropractic spinal manipulation has been reported to be of benefit in nonmusculoskeletal conditions, including asthma.We conducted a randomized, controlled trial of chiropractic spinal manipulation for children with mild or moderate asthma. After a three-week base-line evaluation period, 91 children who had continuing symptoms of asthma despite usual ...

Simulation study on comparison of algal treatment to conventional biological processes for greywater treatment

Algal Research, 2018
The reuse of greywater is a promising strategy to preserve fresh water resources for future generations. The main objective of the present study is to simulate three different biological treatment technologies (high rate algal pond (HRP), conventional activated sludge (AS) treatment and rotating biological contactors (RBC)) at varying pollutant ...

Evidence synthesis of treatment effects using indirect comparisons – a simulation-based comparison of methods

2018
Introduction: In medical practice, physicians often face situations where various therapy options exist. Ideally, all these therapies were previously compared in one (or several) trials. However, often only two- (or even one-) arm trials were conducted comparing only a subset of all possible therapies.[for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]

Comparison of collision treatment methods in PIC-MC plasma simulation

Czechoslovak Journal of Physics, 2006
There exists a demand of using plasma systems at higher pressures. Unfortunately, till now there does not exist a complete theory of plasma-solid interaction for such conditions. The problem is in the effect of collisions among plasma particles. Therefore the correct treatment of collisions in computer simulations is very important.

Evaluation of Ibrutinib in Treatment of Mantle Cell Lymphoma: A Treatment Comparison Using a Simulation Model

Blood, 2014
Abstract Background Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an aggressive subtype of NHL with a poor prognosis, with few effective treatment options in the relapsed setting. Ibrutinb (Imbruvica"), a first-in-class, once daily, oral covalent inhibitor of Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) was recently approved in the US for treatment of ...

Simulated Comparison of Topical and Oral Formulations of 5-Aminosalicylate for the Treatment of Ulcerative Colitis

Inflammatory Bowel Diseases, 2013
5-Aminosalicylate (5-ASA) formulations are approved for the treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC). Determination of the colonic pharmacokinetics of 5-ASA is challenging. A dynamic model of 5-ASA colonic amounts after oral delayed-release 5-ASA (Asacol), oral extended delayed-release 5-ASA (Lialda), 5-ASA enema (Rowasa), foam and suppositories (Canasa ...

Comparison of treatment strategies and thresholds for optimizing fracture prevention in Canada: a simulation analysis

Archives of Osteoporosis, 2019
This comparison of osteoporosis treatment strategies and intervention thresholds highlights tradeoffs in terms of number of individuals qualifying for treatment and estimated fractures prevented.The current analysis was performed to inform the following key question as part of the Osteoporosis Canada's Osteoporosis Guidelines Update: "What is the best ...

Simulated Power Comparisons of MRBP Rank Tests for Three Treatments

1992
In order to analyze multivariate data for the randomized block design, a test based on permutation procedures was introduced by Mielke and Iyer (1982). Under the null hypothesis of no difference in the treatment effects, the distribution of this test statistic assigns equal probabilities to all possible permutations. When the number of blocks is large,

Simulated treatment comparisons with jackknife pseudo values for estimating population-adjusted marginal treatment effects

Journal of Biopharmaceutical Statistics
Matching-adjusted indirect comparisons (MAIC) and simulated treatment comparisons (STC) are commonly used for indirect treatment comparisons when patient-level data are available for some treatments but not others. However, MAIC can become inefficient when covariate overlap across trials is limited, and STC may fail to estimate marginal (population ...

Comparison of cryotherapy and thermal therapy for breast cancer treatment simulations

SPIE Proceedings, 2001
Breast cancer presents an ongoing challenge in regard to treatment efficacy and successful clinical outcomes. There has been a challenge to increase the survival rate over the past 50 years and only recently have clinical outcomes improved, although slightly. Thermal treatment regimes have been evolving and most recently, have been applied in situ.
