Temporal trends in pregnancy weight gain and birth weight in Bavaria 2000-2007: slightly decreasing birth weight with increasing weight gain in pregnancy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
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 ...

On the weight of entanglement [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2016
We investigate a scenario where quantum correlations affect the gravitational field. We show that quantum correlations between particles occupying different positions have an effect on the gravitational field. We find that the small perturbations induced by the entanglement depend on the amount of entanglement and vanish for vanishing quantum ...

Body weight relationships in early marriage. Weight relevance, weight comparisons, and weight talk [PDF]

open access: yesAppetite, 2011
This investigation uncovered processes underlying the dynamics of body weight and body image among individuals involved in nascent heterosexual marital relationships in Upstate New York. In-depth, semi-structured qualitative interviews conducted with 34 informants, 20 women and 14 men, just prior to marriage and again one year later were used to ...

Heterotic Weight Lifting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
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.

Pebble Weighted Automata and Weighted Logics [PDF]

open access: yesACM Transactions on Computational Logic, 2014
We introduce new classes of weighted automata on words. Equipped with pebbles, they go beyond the class of recognizable formal power series: they capture weighted first-order logic enriched with a quantitative version of transitive closure. In contrast to previous work, this calculus allows for unrestricted use of existential and universal ...

On weighting the rates in non‐response weights [PDF]

open access: yesStatistics in Medicine, 2003
AbstractA basic estimation strategy in sample surveys is to weight units inversely proportional to the probability of selection and response. Response weights in this method are usually estimated by the inverse of the sample‐weighted response rate in an adjustment cell, that is, the ratio of the sum of the sampling weights of respondents in a cell to ...

The weight-inclusive vs. weight-normative approach to health: Evaluating the evidence for prioritizing well-being over weight [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Using an ethical lens, this review evaluates two methods of working within patient care and public health: the weight-normative approach (emphasis on weight and weight loss when defining health and well-being) and the weight-inclusive approach (emphasis ...

A Randomized, Controlled Trial of 3.0 mg of Liraglutide in Weight Management.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2015
BACKGROUND Obesity is a chronic disease with serious health consequences, but weight loss is difficult to maintain through lifestyle intervention alone. Liraglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 analogue, has been shown to have potential benefit for weight ...

Revealing the Superior Post-Necking Elongation in the Fine-Grained Ti-6Al-4V ELI at Cryogenic Temperature

open access: yesMetals
The mechanical properties of a fine-grained (FG) Ti-6Al-4V extra-low interstitial (ELI) alloy were investigated by tensile tests at 298 K and 77 K. The experimental results indicated that, at 77 K, the alloy exhibits a small uniform elongation of 2.65 ...
