Knee pain in adults from the northeast of São Paulo, Brazil: prevalence, risk factors, and impact on quality of life by Alberto de Vitta, Nicoly Machado Maciel, Sandra Fiorelli Almeida Penteado Simeão, Matias Noll

“…Results: The prevalence of knee pain was 25.6% (95% confidence interval: 22.3–29.3%), and it was associated with being >60 years old, black ethnicity, mean or low income, overweight, depression, gastrointestinal and renal diseases, and persons who performed occupations requiring repetitive movements, sitting while using a computer, and standing. All individuals with knee pain demonstrated significantly greater risks for summaries of the physical components. …”

A novel graph convolution and frequency domain filtering approach for hyperspectral anomaly detection by Yang Ding, Hao Yan, Jingyuan He, Juanjuan Yin, A. Ruhan

“…The key contributions of this work include: 1) the use of a graph-based model for HSI that effectively integrates both spatial and spectral dimensions, 2) employing KNN for edge construction to include distant pixels and mitigate noise, 3) spatial feature extraction via graph convolution to provide detailed insights into spatial interconnections and variations, enhancing the detection process, and 4) leveraging the beta wavelet filter to handle the ’right-shift’ spectral phenomenon and reduce computational complexity. Experimental evaluations on four benchmark datasets show that the proposed method achieves outstanding performance with AUC scores of 0.9986, 0.9975, 0.9859, and 0.9988, significantly outperforming traditional and state-of-the-art anomaly detection techniques.…”
