This focus group study examined the social experiences of 10 adolescents aged 12-17 years with Moebius Syndrome, a rare condition involving congenital facial paralysis. Content analysis revealed five themes: social engagement/disengagement, resilience/sensitivity, social support/stigma, being understood/misunderstood, and public awareness/lack of awareness of Moebius Syndrome. Compared to previ...

We introduce a forward model for the cone-beam X-ray Computed Tomography projection data measured in native geometries as a Fourier Integral Operator and present a corresponding filtered-backprojection type inversion formula. Our model and inversion formula can accommodate arbitrary source trajectories, arbitrary detector plane orientation, detector surface geometries, and other system related ...

In response to [6], we discover the looked for inversion formula for F -nomial coefficients. Before supplying its proof, we generalize F -nomial coefficients to multi F -nomial coefficients and we give their combinatorial interpretation in cobweb posets language, as the number of maximal-disjoint blocks of the form σPk1,k2,...,ks of layer 〈Φ1 → Φn〉. Then we present inversion formula for F -nomi...

This paper describes how to construct complex performability models in the context of the software tool Moebius, by hierarchically composing small submodels. In addition to Moebius’ “Join” operator, a second composition operator “Sync” is introduced, and it is shown how both types of composition can be realised on the basis of symbolic, i.e. BDD-based data structures.
