When running a randomized controlled trial (RCT), a clinical site may face a situation when an eligible trial participant is to be randomized to the treatment that is not available at the site. In this case, there are two options: not to enroll the parti
Childbirth is one of the invaluable human experiences and is associated with parental happiness. However, when a child is born with congenital heart disease, it creates emotional and mental distress. As a result, it changes the parents’ response to thei
Modelling is a key tool for characterising the likely environmental, economic, and social impact of CC on agricultural systems but, to reflect reality, models must incorporate adaptive responses to these impacts (Reidsma et al., 2010; Reilly and Schimmelpfennig, 2000). Models need to incorporate ...
which in turn is dependent on the physical durability and integrity of the nets. On the other hand, their ability to kill or repel mosquitoes depends on the chemical content of the fabric, and the degree of mosquito susceptibility to these insecticides. Where nets are sufficiently repellent...

probit. The models are explained in a way that is intended to be accessible to a broad audience and evaluated using intuitive metrics; throughout, an effort is made to draw a clear link between machine learning and econometric methods. The modes of analysis rest on different knowledge bases, ...
The worldwide prevalence of Parkinson’s disease (PD) has been constantly increasing in the last decades. With rising life expectancy, a longer disease duration in PD patients is observed, further increasing the need and socioeconomic importance of adequate PD treatment. Today, PD is exclusively ...
NCL proteins have been localized mostly in lysosomes (CLN1, CLN2, CLN3, CLN5, CLN7, CLN10, CLN12 and CLN13) but also in the Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) (CLN6 and CLN8), or in the cytosol associated to vesicular membranes (CLN4 and CLN14). Some of them such as CLN1, which is ...
Focusing on the service robot context, this research there- fore aims to investigate whether the effect of a service robot's empathy capacity on its perceived evaluation is dependent on the extent to which a service robot can perform its func- tional cognitive tasks. As we focus on a service...
Alzheimer's disease is the most common neurodegenerative disorder that usually occurs after the age of 65 for which there is currently no cure. The pre
