Fan, Jessie Xiaojing; Wen, Ming | Disparities in healthcare utilization in China: do gender and migration status matter? | Using a multi-stage cluster sampling approach, we collected healthcare and demographic data from 531migrants and 529 local urban residents aged 16-64 in Shanghai, China. Logistic regressions were used to analyze the relationship between gender-migration status and healthcare utilization while contr... | | 2012 |

Drews, Frank | Does the shoe fit? Applying lessons learned in aviation to healthcare | Aviation's successful use of Decision Support Systems (DSS) has not been replicated in the healthcare subset of DSS referenced as Clinical Decision Support (CDS). Here the domains of healthcare and aviation are compared and contrasted providing an overview of the adaptation of lessons learned in avi... | | 2012-01-01 |

Moshirfar, Majid | Double-pass microkeratome technique for ultra-thin graft preparation in Descemet's stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty | Endothelial keratoplasty is evolving with increased attention placed on the optical qualities of the posterior donor lenticule. In efforts to improve visual outcomes, the effects of the thickness, smoothness, and planar profile are being studied. This paper describes a double-pass microkeratome tech... | | 2012-01-01 |

Wei, Y. H. Dennis | Dynamics, space, and regional inequality in provincial China: a case study of Guangdong province | This paper investigates the regional inequality in one of the most developed provinces in China, Guangdong, from 1979 to 2009 and follows the multi-scale and multi-mechanism framework. We have found a new round of intensifying inequality in Guangdong since the early 2000s, which is attributed to the... | | 2012-01-01 |

Korinek, Kim | The effect of household and community on school attrition: an analysis of Thai youth | We analyze school attrition among youth in Kanchanaburi province, Thailand. We find that family investments in schooling are shaped by both household and local community contexts. There is an enrollment advantage for girls across different households and communities. We find that youth whose mothers... | | 2012-01-01 |

Gerton, Jordan | Effect of magnetic Gd impurities on the superconducting state of amorphous Mo-Ge thin films with different thickness and morphology | We studied the effect of magnetic doping with Gd atoms on the superconducting properties of amorphous Mo70Ge30 films. We observed that in uniform films deposited on amorphous Ge, the pair-breaking strength per impurity strongly decreases with film thickness initially and saturates at a finite value ... | | 2012-01-01 |

Moshirfar, Majid | The effect of preoperative keratometry on visual outcomes after moderate myopic LASIK | The relationship between preoperative keratometry (K) and visual outcomes in laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) has been studied in high myopia and hyperopia, but not in moderate myopia. Rao et al report increased undercorrection in eyes with preoperative spherical equivalent (SE) of −1... | | 2012-01-01 |

Gondolo, Paolo | The effect of quark interactions on dark matter kinetic decoupling and the mass of the smallest dark halos | The kinetic decoupling of dark matter (DM) from the primordial plasma sets the size of the first and smallest DM halos. Studies of the DM kinetic decoupling have hitherto mostly neglected interactions between the DM and the quarks in the plasma. Here we illustrate their importance using two framewor... | | 2012-01-01 |

Podlog, Leslie William | The effect of variety expectations on interest, enjoyment, and locus of causality in exercise | Most attempts to influence intrinsic motivation have focused on contextual support for basic need satisfaction, including the provision of autonomy support, structure, and interpersonal involvement (e.g., Edmunds et al. in Eur J Soc Psychol 38:375-388, 2008). This study explored the extent to which ... | | 2012-01-01 |

Kumpfer, Karol | Effectiveness of a culturally adapted strengthening families program 12-16 years for high-risk Irish families | BACKGROUND: Evidence-based programs (EBPs) targeting effective family skills are the most cost effective for improving adolescent behavioural health. Cochrane Reviews have found Strengthening Families Program (SFP) to be the most effective substance abuse prevention intervention. Standardized cultur... | | 2012-01-01 |

Couldwell, William T. | Efficacy of clip-wrapping in treatment of complex pediatric aneurysms | Purpose: Pediatric aneurysms (PAs) are distinct from their adult counterparts with respect to typical location, aneurysm type, and known predisposing risk factors. Many strategies have been employed to treat PAs, but, although it has been used frequently in adults, clip-wrapping in pediatric patient... | | 2012-01-01 |

Pascucci, Valerio | Efficient data restructuring and aggregation for I/O acceleration in PIDX | Hierarchical, multiresolution data representations enable interactive analysis and visualization of large-scale simulations. One promising application of these techniques is to store high performance computing simulation output in a hierarchical Z (HZ) ordering that translates data from a Cartesian ... | | 2012-01-01 |

Venkatasubramanian, Suresh | Efficient protocols for distributed classification and optimization | A recent paper [1] proposes a general model for distributed learning that bounds the communication required for learning classifiers with e error on linearly separable data adversarially distributed across nodes. In this work, we develop key improvements and extensions to this basic model. Our first... | | 2012-01-01 |

Sudan, Kshitij | Efficient scrub mechanisms for error-prone emerging memories | Many memory cell technologies are being considered as possible replacements for DRAM and Flash technologies, both of which are nearing their scaling limits. While these new cells (PCM, STT-RAM, FeRAM, etc.) promise high density, better scaling, and non-volatility, they introduce new challenges. Solu... | | 2012-01-01 |

Liu, Feng | Electronic strengthening of graphene by charge doping | Graphene is known as the strongest 2D material in nature, yet we show that moderate charge doping of either electrons or holes can further enhance its ideal strength by up to 17%, based on first-principles calculations. This unusual electronic enhancement, versus conventional structural enhancement,... | | 2012-01-01 |

Madsen, Troy Edward | Emergency medicine resident anesthesia training in a private vs. academic setting | Airway management is an essential part of any Emergency Medicine (EM) training program. Academic centers typically provide training to many learners at various training levels in a number of medical specialties during anesthesiology rotations. This potentially creates competition for intubation proc... | | 2012-01-01 |

Yaffe, Joanne | Empty reviews: a description and consideration of cochrane systematic reviews with no included studies | Background: There is no specific guidance for the reporting of Cochrane systematic reviews that do not have studies eligible for inclusion. As a result, the reporting of these so-called ‘‘empty reviews'' may vary across reviews. This research explores the incidence of empty systematic reviews in... | | 2012-01-01 |

Plutynski, Anya | Ethical issues in cancer screening and prevention | November 2009's announcement of the USPSTF's recommendations for screening for breast cancer raised a firestorm of objections, Chief among them that the Panel bad insufficiently valued patients' lives or allowed cost considerations to influence recommendations. The publicity about the recommendation... | | 2012-01-01 |
