Non-invasive systems and methods for the determination of cardiac injury using a characterizing portion of a voxel histogram
William Gregory Hundley,Craig A. Hamilton,Kimberly Lane,Timothy M. Morgan,Frank M. Torti,Ralph B. D'Agostino +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors predict cardiotoxicity induced cardiac injury prior to an irreversible state by electronically generating at least one histogram of mean intensities of voxels/pixels in an MRI image of a left ventricle myocardium.
Journal ArticleDOI
1996 Remington lecture: modeling multivariate longitudinal data that are incomplete.
TL;DR: It may be necessary to fit models of high dimension with maximum likelihood techniques to address missing data appropriately, however these approaches may improve statistical efficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI

M. M. Barnes,Douglas Curran-Everett,Richard F. Hamman,David M. Maahs,Elizabeth J. Mayer-Davis,Ralph B. D'Agostino,Nancy A. West,Dana Dabelea +7 more
TL;DR: To determine whether adiponectin levels are higher in youth with Type 1 diabetes than in non‐diabetic controls, and explore potential determinants for this difference.
