Concordance between DSM-IV and DSM-5 criteria for delirium diagnosis in a pooled database of 768 prospectively evaluated patients using the delirium rating scale-revised-98
(BioMed Central, 2014)Background: The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual fifth edition (DSM-5) provides new criteria for delirium diagnosis. We examined delirium diagnosis using these new criteria compared with the Diagnostic and Statistical ... -
Concordance Between Life Satisfaction and Six Elements of Well-Being Among Respondents to a Health Assessment Survey, HealthPartners Employees, Minnesota, 2011
(Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2016)Introduction: We assessed and tracked perceptions of well-being among employees of member companies of HealthPartners, a nonprofit health care provider and health insurance company in Bloomington, Minnesota. The objective ... -
Concordance between self-reported pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) and BMI measured at the first prenatal study contact
(BioMed Central, 2016)Background: The 2009 Institute of Medicine (IOM) gestational weight recommendations are tailored to women’s pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI). Limited evidence exists on methods for estimating women’s pre-pregnancy BMI, ... -
Concordance of gene expression in human protein complexes reveals tissue specificity and pathology
(Oxford University Press, 2013)Disease-causing variants in human genes usually lead to phenotypes specific to only a few tissues. Here, we present a method for predicting tissue specificity based on quantitative deregulation of protein complexes. The ... -

Concurrent Algorithms in Transactional Data Structures
(2017-07-14)Software transactional memory (STM) simplifies the challenging, yet increasingly critical task of parallel programming. Using STM allows programmers to reason about concurrent operations in terms of transactions—groups of ... -
Concurrent Channel Access and Estimation for Scalable Multiuser MIMO Networking
(2012-07-26)This paper presents the design of MIMO/CON (“MIMO with concurrent channel access and estimation”), a PHY/MAC cross-layer design delivering throughput scalable to many users for multiuser MIMO wireless networking. By allowing ... -
Concurrent Chemoradiation for Vaginal Cancer
(Public Library of Science, 2013)Background: It is not known whether the addition of chemotherapy to radiation therapy improves outcomes in primary vaginal cancer. Here, we review clinical outcomes in patients with primary vaginal cancer treated with ... -
Concurrent electromigration and creep in lead-free solder
(AIP Publishing, 2011)When electric current flows in a solder bump, electromigration generates stress, but creep relaxes it. After some time, the bump develops a steady-state stress field. We present a theory to show that the two processes - ... -
Concurrent muscle and bone deterioration in a murine model of cancer cachexia
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2013)Cachexia is defined as an excessive, involuntary loss of fat and lean tissue. We tested the validity of the Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) as a model of cancer cachexia and examined its effect on the two major lean tissue ... -
Concurrent Reaction and Plasticity during Initial Lithiation of Crystalline Silicon in Lithium-Ion Batteries

Concurrent Validity of the Child Behavior Checklist DSM-Oriented Scales: Correspondence with DSM Diagnoses and Comparison to Syndrome Scales
(Springer Verlag, 2009)This study used receiver operating characteristic (ROC) methodology and discriminative analyses to examine the correspondence of the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) rationally-derived DSM-oriented scales and empirically-derived ... -
Concussion management in US college football: progress and pitfalls
(2015)Reducing the frequency and severity of concussions from sport is an important issue in public health currently addressed by a multifaceted approach. Given the large number of participants and the comparatively high risk ... -
Concussions and youth football: using a public health law framework to head off a potential public health crisis
(Oxford University Press, 2015)Concussion from sport is increasingly recognized as a public health priority. In response, all states and the District of Columbia have enacted youth concussion legislation. This paper first examines key developments in ... -
Condensation on slippery asymmetric bumps
(Springer Nature, 2016)Controlling dropwise condensation is fundamental to water- harvesting systems1–3, desalination4, thermal power generation4–8, air conditioning9, distillation towers10, and numerous other applications4,5,11. For any of ... -
Condensed-matter physics: Catching relativistic electrons
(Nature Publishing Group, 2014)Low-energy electrons have been found to mimic relativistic high-energy particles in cadmium arsenide. This defines the first stable '3D Dirac semimetal', which holds promise for fundamental-physics exploration and practical ... -
Conditional cancer-specific mortality in T4, N1, or M1 prostate cancer: implications for long-term prognosis
(Springer Science + Business Media, 2015)Background: The risk of prostate cancer-specific mortality (PCSM) following a diagnosis of prostate cancer may improve after patients have survived a number of years after diagnosis. We sought to determine long-term ... -
Conditional Cash Transfers in Education: Design Features, Peer and Sibling Effects: Evidence from a Randomized Experiment in Colombia
(2008)We evaluate multiple variants of a commonly used intervention to boost education in developing countries -- the conditional cash transfer (CCT) -- with a student level randomization that allows us to generate intra-family ... -
A Conditional Randomization Test to Account for Covariate Imbalance in Randomized Experiments
(Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2016)We consider the conditional randomization test as a way to account for covariate imbalance in randomized experiments. The test accounts for covariate imbalance by comparing the observed test statistic to the null distribution ... -
Conditional Universal Consistency
(Elsevier, 1999)Players choose an action before learning an outcome chosen according to an unknown and history-dependent stochastic rule. Procedures that categorize outcomes, and use a randomized variation on fictitious play within each ...
