Day-to-day dynamics of fetal heart rate variability to detect chorioamnionitis in preterm premature rupture of membranes. by Aline Taoum, Guy Carrault, Caroline Tesson, Maxime Esvan, Bruno Laviolle, Linda Lassel

“…The distinction between the two populations reached an area under the curve (AUC) of only 37% [34-40] for cFHR features and 63% [59-66] for time-domain FHRV features when comparing all stages of chorioamnionitis to non-chorioamnionitis subjects. When only stage 3 chorioamnionitis was compared to non-chorioamnionitis patients, the AUC reached 90% [88-93] for nonlinear-domain and 84% [82-87] for time-domain FHRV features, whereas it was limited to 71% [68-74] using cFHR features.…”

The Relevance of Cognitive and Affective Factors to Explain the Acceptance of Blockchain Use: The Case of Loyalty Programmes by Mar Souto-Romero, Mario Arias-Oliva, Jorge de Andrés-Sánchez, Miguel Llorens-Marín

“…Thus, we propose to explain the behavioural intention to use BBLPs (BEHAV) with two cognitive variables, namely perceived usefulness (USEFUL) and perceived ease of use (EASE); two affective variables, namely positive emotions (PEMO) and negative emotions (NEMO); and a normative factor, namely, the subjective norm (SNORM). A partial least squares-structural equation modelling analysis suggests that, to explain the expected response of BEHAV, only the positive relationships of the cognitive constructs with the response variable are significant. …”
