Determining the feasibility of a full-scale randomised controlled trial evaluating rehabilitation for people after acute patellar dislocation by Forde, C

“…Follow-up was three, six, and nine months after randomisation. Quantitative feasibility outcome results were 1.) willingness of eligible patients to be randomised: 57% (95% confidence interval (CI) 46% to 67%), 2.) recruitment rate: mean 1.4 (95% CI 0.6 to 1.8) participants per site per month, 3.) nine-month retention: 62% (95% CI 48% to 74%), and 4.) proportion of supervised rehabilitation participants that attended ≥4 physiotherapy sessions and self-managed rehabilitation participants that attended ≥1 session: 72% (95% CI 58% to 83%).…”

UAV trajectory estimation and deviation analysis for contingency management in urban environments by Pang, Bizhao, Ng, Ee Meng, Low, Kin Huat

“…The simulation results show that: (1) for uniform distribution of GPS signal, the estimated trajectory will deviate linearly with the decrease of signal density up until a density of 0.1hz and increase exponentially after that; and (2) for non-uniform distribution, the Gaussian distribution performed the worst, followed by random distribution and Sine distribution.…”
