A general Bayesian model, Diploffect, is described for estimating the effects of founder haplotypes at quantitative trait loci (QTL) detected in multiparental genetic populations; such populations include the Collaborative Cross (CC), Heterogeneous Socks (HS), and many others for which local genetic variation is well described by an underlying, usually probabilistically inferred, haplotype mosa...

choline, glutamate and inositol (32x32 matrix) with 2-fold SENSE acceleration. Fig.3 Fully sampled PEPSI maps of non-suppressed water (64x64 matrix) and metabolite maps of NAA, creatine, choline, glutamate and inositol (32x32 matrix), acquired in 8.5 min with 0.63 cc voxel size. Fig.1 Non-water-suppressed PEPSI maps on phantom at 7 T show good reconstruction performance for up to 4-fold acceler...

RESULTS: Reconstruction was achieved without any failure or NAC losses in all 40/40 breasts, 20 bilateral targeted two stage risk reducing mastopexy/reduction and NSM/ SIR procedures. Patients median BMI was 30(22–44). Six patients were smokers and one had hypertension. Anatomical shaped silicone implants were used in all cases, average size 555 cc, (310 to 690). Average OR time for NSM/ SIR wa...

Higher-order cyclic cumulants (CCs) have been widely adopted for automatic modulation recognition (AMR) in cognitive radio. However, the CC-based AMR suffers greatly from the requirement of high-rate sampling. To overcome this limit, we resort to the theory of compressive sensing (CS). By exploiting the sparsity of CCs, recognition features can be extracted from a small amount of compressive me...

background: the technique most frequently employed for breast reconstruction, either immediate (ibr) or delayed (dbr), is the insertion of a prosthesis. the placement of a foreign body always carries the risk, albeit small, of peri-prosthetic infection and exposure of the implant that necessitates its removal, signaling the temporary or permanent failure of the reconstruction. methods: we retro...

injuries to the posterolateral corner (plc) comprise a significant portion of knee ligament injuries. a high index of suspicion is necessary when evaluating the injured knee to detect these sometimes occult injuries. moreover, a thorough physical examination and a comprehensive review of radiographic studies are necessary to identify these injuries. in this sense, stress radiographs can help to...

(i) An explicit description of the range D(X)̂where X is a Euclidean space or a symmetric space of the noncompact type ([2], [3]). Here (D = Cc ). In the first case, f̂ in (1.1) is integration over hyperplanes in X = Rn; in the latter case f̂ in (1.1) refers to integration over horocycles ξ in the symmetric space X. (ii) Medical application in X-ray reconstruction ([6], p.47). (iii) Existence theo...
