In Medio Stat Virtus: Combining Boolean and Pattern Matching
Giovanni De Micheli, Alessandro Tempia Calvino, Gianluca Radi
Technology mapping transforms a technology-independent representation into a technology-dependent one given a library of cells. This process is performed by means of local replacements that are extracted by matching sections of the subject graph to library ...
2024Roles of Clinical Features and Chest CT in Predicting the Outcomes of Hospitalized Patients with COVID-19 Developing AKI
Ali Falsafi, Shekoofeh Yaghmaei
This research aimed to evaluate the clinical features and computed tomography (CT) scans associated with poor outcomes in COVID-19 patients with acute kidney injury (AKI). A total of 351 COVID-19 patients (100 AKI, 251 non-AKI) hospitalized at Imam Hossein ...
IRANIAN SOC NEPHROLGY2023Causal modelling of heavy-tailed variables and confounders with application to river flow
Anthony Christopher Davison, Valérie Chavez
Confounding variables are a recurrent challenge for causal discovery and inference. In many situations, complex causal mechanisms only manifest themselves in extreme events, or take simpler forms in the extremes. Stimulated by data on extreme river flows a ...
SPRINGER2022Navigation Improves the Survival Rate of Mobile-Bearing Total Knee Arthroplasty by Severe Preoperative Coronal Deformity: A Propensity Matched Case-Control Comparative Study
The primary hypothesis of this study was that the survival rate over 10 years of total knee arthroplasties (TKAs) implanted with a navigation system was superior to that of TKAs implanted with a conventional technique. The secondary hypothesis was that the ...
GEORG THIEME VERLAG KG2021Instrumented 5-Time Sit-To-Stand Test: Parameters Predicting Serious Falls beyond the Duration of the Test
Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Arash Atrsaei, Yves Henchoz
Background: Falls are a major cause of injuries in older adults. To evaluate the risk of falls in older adults, clinical assessments such as the 5-time sit-to-stand (5xSTS) test can be performed. The development of inertial measurement units (IMUs) has pro ...
2021No difference in 13-year survival after medial pivot or central pivot mobile bearing total knee arthroplasty. A propensity matched comparative analysis
Purpose The present study was designed to evaluate the long-term results (more than 10 years) of mobile bearing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and to compare the survival of medial pivot axis (MPA) and central pivot axis (CPA) TKAs. The primary hypothesis w ...

ASSOC COMPUTING MACHINERY2020Effect heterogeneity and variable selection for standardizing causal effects to a target population
Mats Julius Stensrud, Anders Huitfeldt
The participants in randomized trials and other studies used for causal inference are often not representative of the populations seen by clinical decision-makers. To account for differences between populations, researchers may consider standardizing resul ...
