Education- and income-based inequalities of functional dentition by dental service utilization by Anna Rachel dos Santos Soares, Carlos Antonio Gomes da Cruz, Maria Luíza Viana Fonseca, Líria Sheila Chamane, Loliza Luiz Figueiredo Houri Chalub, Raquel Conceição Ferreira

“…Absolute and relative inequalities in FD were assessed using the slope index of inequality (SII) and the relative index of inequality (RII), respectively, based on education and income. Generalized linear models (log-binomial regression) were applied with a logarithmic link function to estimate RII (rate ratios) and an identity link function to estimate SII (rate differences), adjusting for sex and age. …”

Depressive and Negative Symptoms in the Early and Established Stages of Schizophrenia: Integrating Structural Brain Alterations, Cognitive Performance, and Plasma Interleukin 6 Lev... by Fabiana Corsi-Zuelli, Gary Donohoe, Siân Lowri Griffiths, Cristina M. Del-Ben, Andrew J. Watson, Tom Burke, Paris A. Lalousis, Declan McKernan, Derek Morris, John Kelly, Colm McDonald, Saahithh R. Patlola, Carmine Pariante, Nicholas M. Barnes, Golam M. Khandaker, John Suckling, Bill Deakin, Rachel Upthegrove, Maria R. Dauvermann

“…Background: Depressive and negative symptoms are related to poor functional outcomes in schizophrenia. Cognitive deficits, reduced brain cortical thickness and volumes, and inflammation may contribute to depressive and negative symptoms, but pharmacological treatment and disease progression may confound the associations. …”

Neuromodulation techniques for modulating cognitive function: Enhancing stimulation precision and intervention effects by Hanwen Cao, Li Shang, Deheng Hu, Jianbing Huang, Yu Wang, Ming Li, Yilin Song, Qianzi Yang, Yan Luo, Ying Wang, Xinxia Cai, Juntao Liu

“…Invasive stimulation methods, which are ideal for studying the pathogenesis of neurological diseases, tend to cause greater trauma and have been less researched in the context of cognitive function regulation. Non-invasive methods, particularly newer transcranial stimulation techniques, are gentler and more appropriate for regulating cognitive functions in the general population. …”

Application of upper estimates for products of inner radii to distortion theorems for univalent functions by I. V. Denega, Ya. V. Zabolotnyi

“…In the case of three or more points, many authors considered estimates of a more general Mobius invariant of the form $$ T_{n}:={\prod\limits_{k=1}^n r(B_{k},a_{k})}{\bigg(\prod\limits_{1\leqslant k<p\leqslant n} |a_{k}-a_{p}|\bigg)^{-\frac{2}{n-1}}}, $$ where $r(B,a)$ denotes the inner radius of the domain $B$ with respect to the point $a$ (for an infinitely distant point under the corresponding factor we understand the unit). …”

Numerical Reduced Variable Optimization Methods via Implicit Functional Dependence with Applications by Christopher Gunaseelan Jesudason

“…A nontrivial real world application of the above implicit methodology to rate constant and final concentration parameter determination is made to illustrate its utility. This work is more general than the reduction schemes for conditional linear parameters since it covers the nonconditional case as well and has potentially wide applicability.…”
