  • Preferences of people living with HIV for injectable and oral antiretroviral treatment in the Netherlands

    Open AccessIngrid E H Kremer, Charlotte Beaudart et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2024

    Injectable antiretroviral treatment (ART) represents a new effective and potentially more convenient alternative to oral ART for people living with HIV (PLWH). This study assessed preferences of PLWH for long-acting injectable compared with oral ART in the Netherlands. A labelled discrete choice experiment presented 12 choice sets of long-acting injectable and oral ART. PLWH were asked to select their preferred ART, described by six attributes: l…

  • Dickinson’s Senses of Experience

    Open AccessJ Simons, John P SimonsARTICLEAmerikastudien/American Studies2020

    Wierzbicka refers to "the present confusion surrounding the word experience" and to "the cluster of meanings linked with this highly polysemous English word" (34; emphasis in original). It would not be easy to say just what the meaning of experience is in the essay "Experience," which Lawrence Buell sees as Emerson's "most soul-searching" (130). Experience in the essay is in part "this evanescence and lubricity of all objects, which lets them sli…

  • Worldwide trends in diabetes since 1980

    Open AccessBin Zhou, B Zhou et al.ARTICLEThe Lancet2016

    BACKGROUND: One of the global targets for non-communicable diseases is to halt, by 2025, the rise in the age-standardised adult prevalence of diabetes at its 2010 levels. We aimed to estimate worldwide trends in diabetes, how likely it is for countries to achieve the global target, and how changes in prevalence, together with population growth and ageing, are affecting the number of adults with diabetes. METHODS: We pooled data from population-ba…

  • Animal rights and the politics of literary representation

    J SimonsBOOKAnimals, Literature and the…2002

    This book addresses the question of animal rights in the context of literary criticism. Working from a committed position it asks what literary studies would look like if animal rights were taken seriously. It offers critical surveys of the main themes in the history of animal rights and some of the more important contemporary positions together with readings of a wide range of literary texts from classical antiquity through to the present day

  • Measurement Properties of the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale

    John Mccallum, Andrew Mackinnon et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…1995Citada por: 8

    The measurement properties of the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) were examined in an Australian community study of aged persons in order to contribute to international validation of the measure. Confirmatory analysis of polychoric correlations was conducted using the generally weighted least squares method. The original four-factor solution proposed by Radloff was successfully replicated for Australians, showing simil…

  • Estimating the proportion of migrants from Anglican marriage registers

    Open AccessMalcolm T Smith, J Simons et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…1991Referencias: 2

    Anglican marriage registers are the only source to allow a comprehensive survey of migration rates in England from the sixteenth century to the present day. However, a comparison with estimates from annotated baptismal registers shows them consistently to underestimate the amount of migration. A method is proposed which may compensate for such bias in an observed matrix of migration

  • Skeletal maturity in Belgian youths assessed by the Tanner-Whitehouse method (TW2)

    Open AccessGaston Beunen, J Lefevre et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology1990

    Reference data for skeletal maturity (TW2 method) of the hand and wrist are provided for large representative samples of Belgian boys and girls. The sample of Belgian boys consisted of 21,174 boys aged 12 to 20 years studied in a nationwide cross-sectional and longitudinal study on the physical fitness of secondary schoolboys (1969-1974). The girls' sample consisted of 9698 6-19-year-old Flemish girls studied cross-sectionally (1979-1980). Both s…

  • Longitudinal principal component analysis of somatic and motor characteristics

    Open AccessJohan Lefevre, Gaston Beunen et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Human Biology1989

    Longitudinal principal component analysis was applied to the study of growth patterns of several somatic and motor characteristics. The data are from the “Leuven Growth Study of Belgian Boys,” in which six annual observations were made. Peak growth velocity and age at peak growth velocity for each variable were estimated. The results for height show three components sufficient to provide an adequate representation of the original information. The…

  • Stability of anthroposcopic and anthropometric estimates of physique in Belgian boys followed longitudinally from 13 to 18 years of age

    Open AccessAlbrecht Claessens, Gaston Beunen et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology1986

    The stability of physique determined by the anthroposcopic 'Atlas' technique and the anthropometric Health-Carter method was examined in a sample of 210 healthy Belgian schoolboys studied longitudinally at yearly intervals from 13 to 18 years of age. The two rating systems were also compared. Results indicate that components of the same type in the two methods do not measure the same underlying factors, particularly for mesomorphy (anthroposcopic…

  • Patterns of TW-1 and TW-2 skeletal age differences in 12-19-year-old Belgian boys

    Open AccessGaston Beunen, M Ostyn et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology1983

    The pattern of differences between TW-1 and TW-2 skeletal ages was investigated in a mixed longitudinal sample of Belgian school boys aged about 12-19 years. The differences between the TW-1 and TW-2 skeletal ages decrease from 12 years until 15 years, then increase until they stabilize at 17 years. TW-1 skeletal ages are greater than TW-2 skeletal ages, except at 14 and 15 years. This trend confirms the findings in better-off black and white Phi…

  • Fatness and skeletal maturity of Belgian boys 12 through 17 years of age

    Open AccessGaston Beunen, Robert M Malina et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Physical…1982Citada por: 6Referencias: 14

    Relationships between fatness and skeletal maturity are considered in a nationwide sample of 14,259 Belgian boys 12 through 17 years of age (The Leuven Growth Study of Belgian Boys). Absolute fatness was estimated from four skinfolds using the Drinkwater and Ross technique and from the sum of four skinfolds, and was related to skeletal maturity assessed by the Tanner‐Whitehouse method (I and II). In addition, comparisons were made between the fat…

  • Chronological and biological age as related to physical fitness in boys 12 to 19 years

    Open AccessGaston Beunen, M Ostyn et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology1981

    The relative importance of skeletal age and chronological age in explaining body measurements and the relative importance of skeletal age, chronological age, height, weight, and their interactions in explaining motor fitness components are reported. Anthropometric, motor fitness, and skeletal maturity data have been collected in a mixed longitudinal study of Belgian school boys 12+/- - 19+/- years. At each age level multiple regression equations …
