We have previously proposed BB94] a model for the generation of segmental durations which proceeds in two steps : (a) prediction of the timing of a salient acoustic event per syllable according to phonotactic and syntactic information, and (b) application of a repartition model which determines the duration of each individual segment between these events. This paper focusses on the repartition ...

1.1 Z-scores versus one-sample T-tests If we knew the mean, µ , and standard deviation, σ , of the control "population", we could construct the "Z-score": σ µ p Z − = where p is the single patient score, and determine the probability of obtaining a Z-score this large from the "Z-distribution" (or "normal" or "Gaussian" distribution). In practice, Z-scores are often tested this way when the grou...

Background: The primary objective of this study was to assess BMD change in Iranian females with breast cancer. Methods: A sample of 73 female breast cancer patients treated with adjuvant chemotherapy either alone or followed by radiotherapy between March 2013 and February 2016 were considered for this study.

BACKGROUND Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) may affect body mass index (BMI) and other components of cardiometabolic (CM) risk during childhood, but evidence is scarce and inconsistent. OBJECTIVES We estimated associations between prenatal PFAS exposures and outcomes relevant to cardiometabolic risk, including a composite CM-risk score. METHODS We measured perfluorohexanesulfonic acid (PFHx...

However, few studies have leveraged longitudinal data to investigate the association of changes in family income on changes in BMI z score. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to assess whether gains in family income are associated with changes in BMI z score among children in t...
