Combining structure and function to evaluate glaucomatous progression: implications for the design of clinical trials
(Elsevier B.V., 2013-02-01)
The selection of a suitable method for assessment of glaucomatous progression and estimation of rates of change is an essential component of the design of clinical trials investigating neuroprotective therapies for the ...
Effects of square-stepping exercise on cognitive functions of older people
(2013-09-01)
Aim: Cognitive functions can decline with age, and interventions focusing on stimulating them may have positive results. Previous studies have shown that square-stepping exercise (SSE) has a good influence on balance, but ...

Purpose: To evaluate the relationship between glaucomatous structural damage assessed by the Cirrus Spectral Domain OCT (SDOCT) and functional loss as measured by standard automated perimetry (SAP).Methods: Four hundred ...
Avaliação estatística de métodos de poda aplicados em neurônios intermediários da rede neural MLP
(2006-12-01)
There are several papers on pruning methods in the artificial neural networks area. However, with rare exceptions, none of them presents an appropriate statistical evaluation of such methods. In this article, we proved ...
Evaluation of pulmonary function and quality of life in women with osteoporosis
(Springer, 2005-10-01)
Osteoporotic vertebral fractures generally result in an increased kyphotic angle, which in turn may lead to disturbances in pulmonary function. the objective of the present study was to evaluate pulmonary function and ...

Kernel polynomials from L-orthogonal polynomials
(2011-05-01)
A positive measure ψ defined on [a,b] such that its moments μn=∫a btndψ(t) exist for n=0,±1,±2,⋯, is called a strong positive measure on [a,b]. If 0≤a<b≤∞ then the sequence of (monic) polynomials {Qn}, defined by ∫a ...
