Effects of an mHealth voice message service (mMitra) on maternal health knowledge and practices of low-income women in India: findings from a pseudo-randomized controlled trial

BMC Public Health, 2020
Background Mobile Health (mHealth) is becoming an important tool to improve health outcomes in maternal, newborn and child health (MNCH). Studies of mHealth interventions, have demonstrated their effectiveness in improving uptake of recommended maternal ...

High-Yield Mucosal Olfactory Ensheathing Cells Restore Loss of Function in Rat Dorsal Root Injury

Cells, 2021
In a previous study, we reported that no axons were crossing from the severed dorsal roots to the spinal cord using the rat dorsal rhizotomy paradigm. The injury caused ipsilateral deficits of forepaw function.

A polynomial-time approximation scheme for the geometric unique coverage problem on unit squares [PDF]

, 2016
We give a polynomial-time approximation scheme for the unique unit-square coverage problem: given a set of points and a set of axis-parallel unit squares, both in the plane, we wish to find a subset of squares that maximizes the number of points ...

The impact of visualization on flexible Bayesian reasoning

Avances de Investigación en Educación Matemática, 2017
There is wide consensus that visualizations of statistical information can support Bayesian reasoning. This article focusses on the conceptual understanding of Bayesian reasoning situations and investigates whether the tree diagram or the unit square is

Magnetisation transfer ratio combined with magnetic resonance neurography is feasible in the proximal lumbar plexus using healthy volunteers at 3T

Scientific Reports, 2020
Magnetic resonance neurography (MRN) has been used extensively to study pathological conditions affecting the peripheral nervous system (PNS).

Friedreich's Ataxia Frequency in a Large Cohort of Genetically Undetermined Ataxia Patients

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
Background: Patients with suspected genetic ataxia are often tested for Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA) and/or a variety of spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs). FRDA can present with atypical, late-onset forms and so may be missed in the diagnostic process.

Inefficiency in packing squares with unit squares

Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series A, 1978
AbstractIt is shown that, in packing a square of side n + 12 with unit squares, the wasted space always has area ⪢ n12. This answers a question of Erdös and Graham.

Global unit squares and local unit squares

Journal of Number Theory, 2008
Let \(K\) be any Galois extension of \(\mathbb Q\), and \(U_K\) be the unit group of \(K\). For any place \(v\) of \(K\), let \(U_v\) be the group of local units of \(K_v\). Here the authors study the following problem: does there exist an odd prime \(p\) such that the map \(U_K/U_K^2\to \prod_{v\mid p} U_v/U_v^2\) is injective.

Packing 10 or 11 Unit Squares in a Square [PDF]

The Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2003
Let $s(n)$ be the side of the smallest square into which it is possible pack $n$ unit squares. We show that $s(10)=3+\sqrt{1\over 2}\approx3.707$ and that $s(11)\geq2+2\sqrt{4\over 5}\approx3.789$. We also show that an optimal packing of $11$ unit squares with orientations limited to $0$ degrees or $45$ degrees has side $2+2\sqrt{8\over 9}\approx3 ...
