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

open access: yesThe 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 ...

Therapeutic safety and efficacy of triple-immunosuppressants versus dual-immunosuppressants in severe-to-critical COVID-19: a prospective cohort study in Bangladesh

open access: yesAnnals of Medicine, 2022
Background Hyperinflammation-induced respiratory failure is a leading cause of mortality in COVID-19 infection. Immunosuppressants such as, Baricitinib and interleukin inhibitors are the drug-of-choice to suppress cytokine storm in COVID-19.

On the symmetric square. Unit elements [PDF]

open access: yesPacific Journal of Mathematics, 1996
\textit{J.-L. Waldspurger}'s recent coherence result [Publ. Math., Inst. Hautes Etud. Sci. 81, 25-72 (1995; Zbl 0841.22009)] for the germ expansion of the orbital integral of the unit element in the Hecke algebra on the topologically unipotent set, and Kazhdan's decomposition of compact elements into topologically unipotent and absolutely semi-simple ...

Packing Unit Squares in a Rectangle [PDF]

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2005
For a positive integer $N$, let $s(N)$ be the side length of the minimum square into which $N$ unit squares can be packed. This paper shows that, for given real numbers $a,b\geq 2$, no more than $ab -(a+1-\lceil a\rceil) -(b+1-\lceil b\rceil)$ unit squares can be packed in any $a'\times b'$ rectangle $R$ with $a' < a$ and $b' < b$. From this, we

Predicting outcome in clinically isolated syndrome using machine learning

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical, 2015
We aim to determine if machine learning techniques, such as support vector machines (SVMs), can predict the occurrence of a second clinical attack, which leads to the diagnosis of clinically-definite Multiple Sclerosis (CDMS) in patients with a ...

Assessing Lumbar Plexus and Sciatic Nerve Damage in Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis Using Magnetisation Transfer Ratio

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2021
Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) has traditionally been regarded as a disease confined to the central nervous system (CNS). However, neuropathological, electrophysiological, and imaging studies have demonstrated that the peripheral nervous system (PNS)

Fully automated segmentation of the cervical cord from T1-weighted MRI using PropSeg: Application to multiple sclerosis

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical, 2016
Spinal cord (SC) atrophy, i.e. a reduction in the SC cross-sectional area (CSA) over time, can be measured by means of image segmentation using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Unit squares intersecting all secants of a square [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete & Computational Geometry, 1994
Let S be a square of side length s > 0. We construct, for any sufficiently large s, a set of less than 1.994 s closed unit squares whose sides are parallel to those of S such that any straight line intersecting S intersects at least one square of S. It disproves L.

The effects of deep brain stimulation of the pedunculopontine nucleus on cognition in Parkinson's disease and Progressive Supranuclear Palsy

open access: yesClinical Parkinsonism & Related Disorders, 2019
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN) is a relatively new treatment approach for the axial symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD) and Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP).
