Exploring the relationship between multimodal magnetic resonance neuroimaging and cognitive outcomes in children: applying machine learning algorithms to brain MRI features to pred... by Khobo, Isaac

“…Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging (MRI) is a versatile tool that can be used to measure a broad range of brain tissue properties giving rise to cognitive functions. For example, structural MRI (sMRI) can quantify brain volumes and other morphometrics, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) can estimate the amount of nerve fibre damage, and proton MR spectroscopy (1H-MRS) can charac- terise the biochemical profile of grey and white matter (GM, WM).Research aims : The aims of this study were: First, collect evidence for what is known about the relationship between cognitive performance assessed by a comprehensive set of cognitive test batteries and brain changes measured with neuroimaging in children, adolescents, and youth living with HIV. …”

The genetics of cognition in Schizophrenia by Wootton, Olivia

“…Background: Cognitive impairment is a well-documented feature of schizophrenia and a major determinant of functional outcomes. Cognitive function may be assessed by measuring mean performance measures on cognitive tasks or by measuring variability in performance across tasks or trials of a task that make up a cognitive test battery. …”

A cross-sectional study of the association between cognitive impairment and haemoglobin levels in HIV-infected South Africans established on antiretroviral therapy by Vermaak, John-Randel

“…Methods A cross-sectional secondary data analysis was performed to assess the association between serum haemoglobin level and neurocognitive function in 129 participants who had both neurocognitive test (global deficit score) and full blood count results performed as part of a randomised placebo controlled trial that evaluated the efficacy of lithium carbonate for the treatment of HIV associated neurocognitive disorders. …”

Real-time power system impedance estimation for DG applications: Using PV-inverter based harmonic injection method by Knezevic, Aleksa

“…In this work, the active method is implemented in a three-phase PV-inverter and thoroughly tested in terms of its TEI estimation accuracy. Dependence of said accuracy on parameters such as the level of injected current and its frequency is shown to be high through tests performed on the live PS at two locations. …”
