Background There is limited evidence on the course of health service costs before and after psychiatric inpatient treatment, which might also be affected by source of cost data. Thus, this study examines: i) differences in health care costs before and after psychiatric inpatient treatment, ii) whether these differences vary by source of cost-data (self-report vs. administrative), and iii) predi...

Methods: Twenty (mean age 7.6 ± 1.1 years) with signs were treated by-maxillary (PG group) (10 subjects = mean 7.9 1.3 or devices (EG 7.4 0.8 years). Digital models lateral cephal...

Abstract: A new kind of entropy will be introduced which generalizes both the differential entropy and the cumulative (residual) entropy. The generalization is twofold. First, we simultaneously define the entropy for cumulative distribution functions (cdfs) and survivor functions (sfs), instead of defining it separately for densities, cdfs, or sfs. Secondly, we consider a general “entropy gener...
