Typical Convolutional Neural Networks (ConvNets) depend heavily on large amounts of image data and resort to an iterative optimization algorithm (e.g., SGD or Adam) to learn network parameters, making...
In this paper, we propose a novel approach to enhance spectral efficiency in communication systems by dynamically adjusting the mapping between cyclic permutation coding (CPC) and its injected form. B...
To describe a standardized methodology for capturing clinically valuable information on young people with cerebral palsy (CP) from caregivers and clinicians during routine clinical care....
We developed a caregiver-facing intake form and clinician-facing standardized note template and integrated both into routine clinical care at a tertiary care CP center ( https://bit.ly/CP-Intake-Metho...
Of 686 visits, 663 (97%) had caregiver- and clinician-entered data and 633 had a clinician-confirmed CP diagnosis (mean age 9.1, 53.4% Male, 78.5% White). It was common to have quadriplegia (288/613, ...
We comprehensively captured caregiver and clinician-entered data on 97% of people seen in a tertiary care CP Center and used this data to determine medical features affecting the odds of three functio...
Using caregiver and clinician-entered data on people seen in a tertiary-care CP center, we determined medical features affecting the odds of three functional outcomes....
Detailed CP characterization can be limited if using population-based registries and retrospective chart review alone, including limited data on recently validated functional classification systems fo...
We comprehensively captured caregiver and clinician-entered data on 97% of people seen in our CP Center to describe how CP manifests and show that cortical injury and initial ICU stay duration affect ...
Susie Kim helped design the study, aggregated data, carried out data analyses, and critically reviewed and revised the manuscript.Kelsey Steffen helped conceptualize and design the study and criticall...
The advent of spatial transcriptomics has revolutionized our understanding of the spatial heterogeneity in tissues, providing unprecedented insights into the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlyi...

Spatial patterns are common in infectious disease epidemiology. Disease mapping is essential to infectious disease surveillance. Under a group testing protocol, biomaterial from multiple individuals i...
Overweight and obesity are major public health issues with increasing incidence and prevalence, affecting more than 50% of the population in developed countries. Due to its complex pathophysiology and...
Retrospective, longitudinal observational study. Inclusion criteria were adult patients (>18 years old) with obesity (BMI>30 kg/m...
One hundred forty-eight patients (85.8% females) with a mean age of 48.7±11.9 years were treated with liraglutide. Mean baseline BMI was 33.8±5.2 kg/m...
The present study documents the long-term efficacy of liraglutide in the treatment of patients with overweight and obesity, with a low rate of drug withdrawal. Mean weight loss was significant and mor...
The unresolved phylogenetic framework within the Selaginellaceae subfamily Gymnogynoideae (ca. 130 species) has hindered our comprehension of the diversification and evolution of Selaginellaceae, one ...
The aim of this study was to determine response patterns to sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) questions in the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) over time and to assess no...
This is a secondary data analysis of the SOGI module of the BRFSS. We used data from 46 states and Guam that implemented SOGI questions between 2014 and 2022. We used weighted analyses that accounted ...
Over time, increasing numbers self-reported as sexual and gender minority respondents, while heterosexual identity declined. Sexual orientation nonresponse and indeterminate responses increased with t...
The low amount of SOGI nonresponse and indeterminate responses in the BRFSS can be instructive for the implementation of SOGI questions in medical settings. SOGI data collection in all settings requir...
We are perceiving and communicating with the world in a multisensory manner, where different information sources are sophisticatedly processed and interpreted by separate parts of the human brain to c...
Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to significantly impact many aspects of dermatology. The visual nature of dermatology lends itself to innovations in this space. The robustness of AI alg...
