To model block-level child population younger than 6 years, we used the children younger than 5 years and children younger than 10 years variables from the American Community Survey; we calculated the number of 5-year-old children as the number of 5- to 9-year-old children divided by 5,...
This conclusion appears consistent with the approach used by investigators to assign non-cases (controls) in case-comparison studies of CCL rupture in Labrador Retrievers, in which 8-year old dogs with normal stifle examination and stifle radiographs free of degenerative changes bilaterally are ...

They are readily applicable in clinical practice for the screening of muscle mass loss in the over 60-year-old population with nearly zero-cost variables. The most complex model proposed in this study requires only the inspection of a simple diagnostic chart to estimate the status of muscle ...
