Abstract:
Objective. To determine whether known maternal risk factors for low birth weight directly contribute to infant mortality among very low birth weight infants. Design. Retrospective population-based, case-control study. Setting. Four hospitals in the Oakland, California, area: one community, two private, one health maintenance organization. Participants. All live-born singleton very low birth weight (<1500 g) infants born to Oakland residents over a 3-year period. Cases were infants who died before their first birthday, identified by computerized linkage of birth and death certificates. F

Abstract:
Birth-death processes have given biologists a model-based framework to answer questions about changes in the birth and death rates of lineages in a phylogenetic tree. Therefore birth-death models are central to macroevolutionary as well as phylodynamic analyses. Early approaches to studying temporal variation in birth and death rates using birth-death models faced difficulties due to the restrictive choices of birth and death rate curves through time. Sufficiently flexible time-varying birth-death models are still lacking. We use a piecewise-constant birth-death model, combined with both Gauss

Abstract:
Constructing a multi-dimensional prior on the times of divergence (the node ages) of species in a phylogeny is not a trivial task, in particular, if the prior density is the result of combining different sources of information such as a speciation process with fossil calibration densities. Yang & Rannala (2006 Mol. Biol. Evol . 23, 212–226. ( doi:10.1093/molbev/msj024 )) laid out the general approach to combine the birth–death process with arbitrary fossil-based densities to construct a prior on divergence times. They achieved this by calculating the density of node ages without calibratio

Abstract:
Abstract Motivation Precise time calibrations needed to estimate ages of species divergence are not always available due to fossil records' incompleteness. Consequently, clock calibrations available for Bayesian dating analyses can be few and diffused, i.e. phylogenies are calibration-poor, impeding reliable inference of the timetree of life. We examined the role of speciation birth–death (BD) tree prior on Bayesian node age estimates in calibration-poor phylogenies and tested the usefulness of an informative, data-driven tree prior to enhancing the accuracy and precision of estimated times.

Abstract:
SummaryIn populations in which the frequency of illegitimacy is high, illegitimates and legitimates may be subjected to different demographic and social pressures, with social and genetic consequences. A rural population from north-east Portugal is studied and variables from birth, marriage and death records are compared according to the legitimacy of the individuals. The analysis shows important differential demographic patterns in infant and child mortality and in migration prior to and related to marriage, especially in women. Some changes over time and gender differences are also evident.

Abstract We investigated the heterogeneity of cognitive trajectories at the end of life by assigning individuals into groups according to their cognitive trajectories prior to death. Data were from the Lothian Birth Cohort of 1921. Growth mixture modelling was employed to identify groups of individuals with similar trajectories on the Mini-Mental State Examination in relation to time to death, accounting for childhood intelligence, education, hypertension, diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Two distinct groups of individuals (classes) were identified: a smaller class (18%) of individuals who

Abstract:
A history of childhood maltreatment, previous traumatic birth or loss, prior medical or sexual trauma, and discriminatory or inequitable care are all believed to have the most significant impact on the perinatal period. Specific obstetric complications associated with trauma exposure include low birth weight, preterm birth, substance use during pregnancy, placental abruption, fetal death, perinatal depression, and anxiety. A trauma-informed approach to perinatal care promotes resilience among trauma survivors and minimizes the risk of retraumatization.

Abstract:
Macro-level studies have shown that rapid increases in mortality can affect fertility rates. Parental death has also been linked to negative psychological and physical outcomes, reduced relationship quality, and making bereaved children attach more importance to their families. No prior study has examined whether parental death influences adult children’s fertility at the microlevel. This study applies event history techniques to Swedish multigeneration registers listing 1.5 million individuals with micro data on mortality and fertility to investigate short-term (first birth risk) and long-ter

Abstract:
The birth and death of a person constitute (existential) changes in that individual. This idea is challenged, however, by Thomas Aquinas—supported by Peter Geach—who believes that no change can involve the very existence of the subject of that change. It is argued, however, that Aquinas’s position is indefensible, since it involves denying that before Socrates existed, it was a fact that he didn’t exist. Another challenge, however, arises from the thesis of C. S. Peirce—supported by A. N. Prior—that before Socrates was born, there was not even the possibility of his existence, since possibilit

Object extraction from images is one of the most important tasks in remote sensing image analysis.

A method for incorporating strong yet flexible prior shape information into a marked point process model for the extraction of multiple objects of complex shape is presented. To control the computational complexity, the objects considered are defined using the image data and the prior shape information.

New firms may be created by entrepreneurs as new standalone ventures or may be spun off from existing businesses within the region. In the case of the latter, new firms are a source of entrepreneurial heritage: they inherit the practices and perspectives of parent firms. Understanding the extent to which a n

Abstract The resurrection of Jesus from death on the cross has always been central to Christian faith. It has been at once glorious and disconcerting to Christians right from the beginning of the formation of the Christian community (as reflected, for example, in Saint Paul’s Corinthian correspondence): glorious because it is the heart of the good news of salvation, disconcerting because it is utterly mystifying to our ordinary understanding and belief. That Jesus was raised from the dead is the virtually unanimous testimony of the New Testament, although modern commentators have disagreed abo

Abstract Duns Scotus is, along with Thomas Aquinas, perhaps the greatest of the medieval theologians and certainly the one who inspired the most interest in the centuries after his death. But we know nothing of his life other than a few bare facts. Scotus was a Franciscan friar and, thus, a member of one of the two most intellectually active orders of the time (the other, of course, being the Dominicans). One of the few definite dates we have for Scotus’s life is his ordination: 17 March 1291, at St. Andrew’s Priory, Northampton, which like Oxford was in the diocese of Lincoln. But this date a

Abstract Chemical cleaning of industrial process equipment can result in corrosion of carbon and low alloy components. Predicting and monitoring of such corrosion is a critical aspect of the overall chemical cleaning project. Normally, laboratory qualification testing is performed to establish the expected corrosiveness of the process. Electrochemical techniques such as linear polarization resistance (LPR), electrical resistance (ER), zero resistance ammetry (ZRA), or electrochemical noise (ECN) are then used in the field during the cleaning to follow the corrosion on-line.

The behavior of SMAs was simulated by defining the isothermal stress-strain curves using the multi-elasticity capability of ANSYS.
