It has been known since as early as the 1950s that addressing requirements issues improves the chance of systems development success. In fact, whole software development standards (such as MIL-STD-2167, MIL-STD-2167A, MIL-STD-498, and IEEE/EIA 12207) were designed to enforce this behavior for software-intensive systems. Relatively recently (sidebar) a new field of study, requirements engineerin...

An 11-year-old boy with hemoglobin sickle disease (HbSD), bilateral stenosis of the intracranial carotid arteries, and moyamoya syndrome had recurrent ischemic strokes with aphasia and right hemiparesis. His parents (Jehovah's Witnesses) refused blood transfusions. After bilateral extracranial-intracranial (EC-IC) bypass surgery, hydroxyurea treatment increased hemoglobin F (HbF) levels to more...

OBJECTIVE To examine the associations between lifetime physical and/or sexual intimate partner violence (IPV) with pregnancy intent among pregnant women in Lima, Peru. METHODS A total of 2167 women who delivered at the Instituto Nacional Materno Perinatal, Lima, Peru were interviewed during the postpartum recovery period. Logistic regression was used to estimate multivariable adjusted odds ra...

The effectiveness of lower-cost equipment used for running gait retraining is still unclear. objective this systematic review was to evaluate the in altering biomechanical outcomes that may be associated with injuries. literature search included all documents from MEDLINE, Web Science, CINAHL, SPORTDiscus, and Scopus. studies were assessed risk bias using an evaluation tool cross-sectional stud...

We consider a stochastic differential equation and its Euler-Maruyama (EM) scheme, under some appropriate conditions, they both admit unique invariant measure, denoted by π πη respectively (η is the step size of EM scheme). construct an empirical measure Πη scheme as statistic πη, use Stein’s method developed in Fang, Shao Xu (Probab. Theory Related Fields 174 (2019) 945–979) to prove central l...

BACKGROUND The effect of currently used bariatric surgical procedures on the development of diabetes in obese people is not well defined. We aimed to assess the effect of bariatric surgery on development of type 2 diabetes in a large population of obese individuals. METHODS We did a matched cohort study of adults (age 20–100 years) identified from a UK-wide database of family practices, who w...

muscle contraction (Huxley and Niedergerke, 1954; Huxley and Hanson, 1954), dictates a trade-off between the ability of a muscle to generate isometric force and its length. This intrinsic trade-off is the result of the need for overlap between thick and thin filaments upon extension of the sarcomere and of the limitations imposed by the physical interference of thin filaments and thick filament...
