ORIGINAL RESEARCH Neuroradiologic Manifestations of Loeys-Dietz Syndrome Type 1
"... BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Loeys-Dietz syndrome (LDS) is a recently described entity that has the triad of arterial tortuosity and aneurysms, hypertelorism, and bifid uvula or cleft palate. Its neuroradio-logic manifestations have not been well delineated. We sought to describe the neuroradiologic feat ..."

Overexpression of Gremlin-1 in Patients with Loeys-Dietz Syndrome: Implications on Pathophysiology and Early Disease Detection
"... Backgrounds: The Loeys-Dietz syndrome (LDS) is an inherited connective tissue disorder caused by mutations in the transforming growth factor b (TGF-b) receptors TGFBR1 or TGFBR2. Most patients with LDS develop severe aortic aneurysms resulting in early need of surgical intervention. In order to gain ..."

Prevalence of Dural Ectasia in Loeys-Dietz Syndrome: Comparison with Marfan Syndrome and Normal Controls
"... Background and Purpose: Dural ectasia is well recognized in Marfan syndrome (MFS) as one of the major diagnostic criteria, but the exact prevalence of dural ectasia is still unknown in Loeys2Dietz syndrome (LDS), which is a recently discovered connective tissue disease. In this study, we evaluated t ..."

A meta-analytic review of obesity prevention programs for children and adolescents: The skinny on interventions that work.
- Psychological Bulletin,
, 2006
"... This meta-analytic review summarizes obesity prevention programs and their effects and investigates participant, intervention, delivery, and design features associated with larger effects. A literature search identified 64 prevention programs seeking to produce weight gain prevention effects, of wh ..."

Keywords: obesity, prevention, meta-analysis, moderators Obesity in adulthood results in an increased risk for future death from all causes, coronary heart disease, atherosclerotic cerebrovascular disease, and colorectal cancer, as well as serious
Psychological and behavioral risk factors for obesity onset in adolescent girls
- Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology
, 2005
"... Because little is known about risk factors for obesity, the authors tested whether certain psychological and behavioral variables predicted future onset of obesity. The authors used data from a prospective study of 496 adolescent girls who completed a baseline assessment at age 11–15 years and 4 ann ..."

annual follow-ups. Self-reported dietary restraint, radical weight-control behaviors, depressive symptoms, and perceived parental obesity—but not high-fat food consumption, binge eating, or exercise frequency—predicted obesity onset. Results provide support for certain etiologic theories of obesity
A national longitudinal study of the association between hours of TV viewing and the trajectory of BMI growth among US children
- Journal of Pediatric Psychology
, 2008
"... Objectives To assess the association between hours of TV viewing and the trajectory of BMI growth from Kindergarten to Grade 5 among a national longitudinal cohort of 7,334 US children. Methods Multilevel growth curve modeling was used to estimate children’s BMI growth trajectories as a function of ..."

of hours of TV viewing over time while controlling for gender, race/ethnicity, SES, birth weight, and baseline age. Results Hours of TV viewing were significantly positively associated with the acceleration of BMI growth from Kindergarten to Grade 5. Conclusions Hours spent watching TV may be contributing
RESEARCH PROGRAM ON ENVIRONMENT and BEHAVIOR
, 2004
"... Abstract: In response to the challenge posited by Dietz and Rosa (2002) to develop an integrated research approach, we propose a model that represents the reciprocal relationship between the social and biophysical subsystems. This framework allows an exploration of the complex interactions that comp ..."

Partially Persistent Data Structures of Bounded Degree with Constant Update Time
- NORDIC JOURNAL OF COMPUTING
, 1996
"... The problem of making bounded in-degree and out-degree data structures partially persistent is considered. The node copying method of Driscoll et al. is extended so that updates can be performed in worst-case constant time on the pointer machine model. Previously it was only known to be possible in ..."

in amortised constant time [2]. The result is presented in terms of a new strategy for Dietz and Raman's dynamic two player pebble game on graphs. It is shown how to implement the strategy and the upper bound on the required number of pebbles is improved from 2b+2d+O( p b) to d+2b, where b is the bound
Counting Inversions, Offline Orthogonal Range Counting, and Related Problems
"... We give an O(n √ lg n)-time algorithm for counting the number of inversions in a permutation on n elements. This improves a long-standing previous bound of O(n lg n / lg lg n) that followed from Dietz’s data structure [WADS’89], and answers a question of Andersson and Petersson [SODA’95]. As Dietz’s ..."
