Early Childhood Behavioral Inhibition Predicts Cortical Thickness in Adulthood.

Journal of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
OBJECTIVE: Behavioral inhibition (BI) during early childhood predicts risk for anxiety disorders and altered cognitive control in adolescence. Although BI has been linked to variation in brain function through adulthood, few studies have examined rel...

Two-year longitudinal health-related fitness, anthropometry and body composition status amongst adolescents in Tlokwe Municipality: The PAHL Study.

African journal of primary health care & family medicine
AIM: To evaluate a two-year longitudinal development of health-related fitness, anthropometry and body composition status amongst adolescents in Tlokwe Municipality, Potchefstroom, South Africa.

Feasibility study into self-administered training at home using an arm and hand device with motivational gaming environment in chronic stroke.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Assistive and robotic training devices are increasingly used for rehabilitation of the hemiparetic arm after stroke, although applications for the wrist and hand are trailing behind. Furthermore, applying a training device in domestic set...

Long-term Effectiveness of Intensive Therapy in Chronic Stroke.

Neurorehabilitation and neural repair
Background While recent clinical trials involving robot-assisted therapy have failed to show clinically significant improvement versus conventional therapy, it is possible that a broader strategy of intensive therapy-to include robot-assisted rehabil...

A context-aware approach for progression tracking of medical concepts in electronic medical records.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Electronic medical records (EMRs) for diabetic patients contain information about heart disease risk factors such as high blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and smoking status. Discovering the described risk factors and tracking their progression ov...

Development of the brain's structural network efficiency in early adolescence: A longitudinal DTI twin study.

Human brain mapping
The brain is a network and our intelligence depends in part on the efficiency of this network. The network of adolescents differs from that of adults suggesting developmental changes. However, whether the network changes over time at the individual l...

Comparison of UMLS terminologies to identify risk of heart disease using clinical notes.

Journal of biomedical informatics
The second track of the 2014 i2b2 challenge asked participants to automatically identify risk factors for heart disease among diabetic patients using natural language processing techniques for clinical notes. This paper describes a rule-based system ...

A hybrid model for automatic identification of risk factors for heart disease.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death in both the UK and worldwide. The detection of related risk factors and tracking their progress over time is of great importance for early prevention and treatment of CAD. This paper describ...

An automatic system to identify heart disease risk factors in clinical texts over time.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Despite recent progress in prediction and prevention, heart disease remains a leading cause of death. One preliminary step in heart disease prediction and prevention is risk factor identification. Many studies have been proposed to identify risk fact...
