Humeral Avulsion of the Lateral Collateral Ligament of the Elbow Concomitant with the Medial Epicondyle Fracture of a Child with General Joint Laxity by Toru Morimoto, Masashi Izumi, Hiroaki Ueba, Masahiko Ikeuchi

“…Since her general joint laxity had been recognized from past medical history and the humeral avulsion of the LCL was clearly confirmed by ultrasonography, simultaneous surgical repair for the LCL avulsion and medial epicondyle fracture was conducted and satisfactory outcome was achieved. Although general joint laxity does not tend to receive attention in trauma as much as chronic conditions, it should be borne in mind to prevent overlooking important soft tissue damage coexisting with apparent fractures.…”

Regression Analysis for Outcome-Dependent Sampling Design under the Covariate-Adjusted Additive Hazards Model by Yingli Pan, Songlin Liu, Yanli Zhou, Guangyu Song

“…Firstly, the importance and originality of this paper is that it explores how to fit the covariate-adjusted additive Hazard model under the ODS design; secondly, this paper focused on estimating the distortion function through nonparametric regression and required observation of the covariate on the confounding factors of distortion; moreover, this paper further calibrated the contaminated covariates and proposed the estimators of the parameters by analyzing the calibrated covariates; finally, this paper established the large sample property and asymptotic normality of the proposed estimators and conducted many more simulations to evaluate the finite sample performance of the proposed method. …”

Statistical Modeling of Ultrawideband Body-Centric Wireless Channels Considering Room Volume by Miyuki Hirose, Hironobu Yamamoto, Takehiko Kobayashi

“…This paper presents the results of a statistical modeling of onbody ultrawideband (UWB) radio channels for wireless body area network (WBAN) applications. Measurements were conducted in five different rooms. A measured delay profile can be divided into two domains; in the first domain (0<t≤4 ns) there is either a direct (for line of sight) or diffracted (for nonline of sight) wave which is dependent on the propagation distance along the perimeter of the body, but essentially unrelated to room volume, and the second domain (t>4 ns) has multipath components that are dominant and dependent on room volume. …”
