CM den Hoed, M van Blankenstein, J Dees… - British Journal of …, 2011 - nature.com In 1967 person years of follow-up there were 13 cases of HGD/OAC, (0.66% pa; 95% CI 0.58–0.74), 96 patients died without HGD/OAC and 24 survived without HGD/OAC. The mean intervals between BO diagnosis and either HGD/OAC, death or end of follow-up were ... All 3 versions
YL Lu, Z Chen, YX Wang, J Zhang… - Computational Materials …, 2011 - Elsevier With the microscopic phase-field dynamic model, the effect of elastic strain energy on the incubation period of Ni–Cr–Al alloys is studied. The simulation results demonstrate that elastic strain energy does not change the precipitation sequence of alloys. There exits the incubation period of ... Related articles - All 2 versions
D Klinkenberg… - Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2011 - Elsevier The generation time of an infectious disease is the time between infection of a primary case and infection of a secondary case by the primary case. Its distribution plays a key role in understanding the dynamics of infectious diseases in populations, eg in estimating the basic ... Related articles - All 2 versions
