Day-to-Day Variability in Self-Reported Cigarettes Per Day

stability and attraction domains of traffic equilibria in day-to-day dynamical system formulation

در این پژوهش مسئله واگذاری ترافیک را از دید سیستم های دینامیکی فرمول بندی می کنیم.فرض کرده ایم که همه فاکتورهای وابسته در طول زمان ثابت باشند و تعادل کاربر را از طریق فرایند منظم روزبه روز پیگیری کنیم.دینامیک ترافیک توسط یک نگاشت بازگشتی نشان داده می شود که تکامل سیستم در طول زمان را نشان می دهد.پایداری تعادل و دامنه جذب را توسط مطالعه ویژگی های توپولوژیکی تکامل سیستم تجزیه و تحلیل می کنیم.پاید...

Measuring the heaviness of smoking: using self-reported time to the first cigarette of the day and number of cigarettes smoked per day.

Two simple self-report measures have been used to assess the heaviness of smoking, 'number of cigarettes per day' (CPD) and 'time to the first cigarette of the day' (TTF). Little attention, however, has been given to the precise method of scoring this information. Using biochemical indicators of heaviness of smoking (alveolar carbon monoxide and cotinine), we explore the optimum data transforma...

Day-to-day variability of adequacy indexes in peritoneal dialysis.

BACKGROUND The achievement of dialysis adequacy targets in peritoneal dialysis (PD) is assessed by the calculation of the Kt/V and creatinine clearance (C(Cr)) obtained by collecting dialysate and urine, usually two or three times a year. Prescription decisions are based on such adequacy assessments, regardless of any variability in the single measurements. The aim of our study was to assess th...
