Does Long‐Term Lower Extremity Strength Training in Adults With Knee Osteoarthritis and Varus Alignment Reduce Knee Joint Loading During Gait?

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We examined whether 18 months of strength training in individuals with knee varus alignment and medial tibiofemoral osteoarthritis (OA) reduced knee joint loads during walking compared to an attention control group. Methods This study was a secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial that compared the effects of strength training to a ...

A convergence analysis of an iterative algorithm of order \(1.839\ldots\) under weak assumptions

open access: yesJournal of Numerical Analysis and Approximation Theory, 2003
We provide new and weaker sufficient local and semilocal conditions for the convergence of a certain iterative method of order 1.839\(\ldots\) to a solution of an equation in a Banach space.

Weak order complexes

open access: yes, 2004
The paper presents geometric models for the set WO of weak orders on a finite set. In particulary, WO is modeled as a set of vertices of a cubical subdivision of a permutahedron. This approach is an alternative to the usual representation of WO by means of weak order polytopes.

Cracking the Code: Which Ocular Symptoms Predict Dry Eye Signs? Insights From a Large International Sicca Registry

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The study aimed to identify symptom‐based predictors of dry eye disease (DED) signs in the Sjögren's International Collaborative Clinical Alliance (SICCA) cohort. Methods We performed a retrospective analysis examining 16 ocular symptoms (most graded 0–4) and artificial tear (AT) use (graded 0–3) as predictors of DED signs (abnormal ocular ...

Application of Fractional-Order Multi-Wing Chaotic System to Weak Signal Detection

open access: yesFractal and Fractional
This work investigates a fractional-order multi-wing chaotic system for detecting weak signals. The influence of the order of fractional calculus on chaotic systems’ dynamical behavior is examined using phase diagrams, bifurcation diagrams, and SE ...

Discordance Between Patient and Physician Global Assessments in Early Systemic Sclerosis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This study aims to identify factors associated with patient global assessment (PtGA) and physician global assessment (PhGA) and discordance between them in systemic sclerosis (SSc). Methods Data from adults with early SSc (<5 years) from the Collaborative National Quality and Efficacy Registry were included.

Discordance Between Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index Domain Weights and Their Association With Organ Damage Accrual

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Studies of damage accrual in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) show associations with disease activity measured by the SLE Disease Activity Index 2000 (SLEDAI‐2K), but these associations are imperfect. SLEDAI scores are powerfully influenced by weightings (1–8) assigned to each domain.

An invariance principle for weakly dependent stationary general models

open access: yes, 2007
The aim of this article is to refine a weak invariance principle for stationary sequences given by Doukhan & Louhichi (1999). Since our conditions are not causal our assumptions need to be stronger than the mixing and causal $\theta$-weak dependence ...

Artificial Intelligence‐based Online Symptom Assessment Tools for Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) diagnosis: Patient Perspectives

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective The objective of this article is to identify perceptions of SLE patients regarding artificial intelligence (AI)‐based online symptom assessment tools, and the potential of these tools to address diagnostic barriers. Methods Adults from our SLE research cohort were invited to participate in 60‐90 minute virtual focus groups concerning their ...

A Robust Adaptive One‐Sample‐Ahead Preview Super‐Twisting Sliding Mode Controller

open access: yesInternational Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, EarlyView.
Block Diagram of the Robust Adaptive One‐Sample‐Ahead Preview Super‐Twisting Sliding Mode Controller. ABSTRACT This article introduces a discrete‐time robust adaptive one‐sample‐ahead preview super‐twisting sliding mode controller. A stability analysis of the controller by Lyapunov criteria is developed to demonstrate its robustness in handling both ...
