Temporal trends in pregnancy weight gain and birth weight in Bavaria 2000-2007: slightly decreasing birth weight with increasing weight gain in pregnancy [PDF]
Aims: To assess temporal trends in birth weight and pregnancy weight gain in Bavaria from 2000 to 2007. Methods: Data on 695,707 mother and infant pairs (singleton term births) were available from a compulsory reporting system for quality assurance ...

Heterotic Weight Lifting [PDF]
We describe a method for constructing genuinely asymmetric (2,0) heterotic strings out of N=2 minimal models in the fermionic sector, whereas the bosonic sector is only partly build out of N=2 minimal models.

“Do I look fat?” Self-perceived body weight and labor market outcomes [PDF]
Research reporting that greater body weight is associated with lower wages and employment, particularly among women, focuses on how employers perceive workers. In contrast, we examine whether workers’ own perceptions of body weight influence labor market

Weight Trimming and Propensity Score Weighting
Propensity score weighting is sensitive to model misspecification and outlying weights that can unduly influence results. The authors investigated whether trimming large weights downward can improve the performance of propensity score weighting and whether the benefits of trimming differ by propensity score estimation method. In a simulation study, the

Abstract Clarke and Beck (C&B) discuss in their sections on congruency and confounds (sects. 3 and 4) literature that has challenged the claim that the approximate number system (ANS) represents numerical content. We argue that the propositions put forward by these studies aren't that far from the indirect model of number perception suggested by

Drude weight, Meissner weight, rotational inertia of bosonic superfluids: how are they distinguished? [PDF]
The Drude weight, the quantity which distinguishes metals from insulators, is proportional to the second derivative of the ground state energy with respect to a flux at zero flux. The same expression also appears in the definition of the Meissner weight,
