Using functional behavioral assessment to support an elementary student with challenging behavior in a self-contained classroom
… based on functional behavioral assessment (FBA) to positively support a student who had specific challenging behaviors and to determine if it was practical for a classroom teacher, the researcher, to utilize functional-assessment techniques. The researcher used indirect and …

Development of Steady-State and Dynamic Flux Models for Broad-Scope Microbial Metabolism Analysis
… techniques, including flux balance analysis (FBA) and 13C-metabolic flux analysis (MFA), can characterize carbon and energy flows through a cells metabolic network. By employing both 13C-labeling experiments and nonlinear programming, 13C-MFA provides a rigorous way of examining cell flux …

Metabolic heterogeneity in microbial populations
… distributions, and use flux balance analysis (FBA) to compute the optimal way that each cell can use its metabolic pathways—an approach we dubbed Population FBA. We find that enzyme variability gives rise to a wide distribution of growth rates, and several metabolic phenotypes—subpopulations …

Computational methods for integrating metabolomics data with metabolic engineering strain design
… design are built around Flux Balance Analysis (FBA) and were developed using assumptions that preclude direct integration of metabolomics data into the underlying models. To improve their accuracy, we have focused on developing strategies to account for metabolite levels and metabolite-dependent …

An Analysis of Functional Behavioral Assessments Used in Public Schools in Tennessee and Georgia.
… the types of Functional Behavioral Assessment (FBA) procedures used and training provided to assessment personnel in their school systems. The primary focus of the study was on who conducts assessments, differences between the amount of training and support provided by school districts, and the …

Design of a Novel Video-Assisted Tube Over Tube Rigid Bronchoscope for the Removal of Foreign Bodies from the Bronchi Following Aspiration
Foreign body aspiration (FBA) is a prevalent occurrence in the paediatric population. FBA is when a foreign body (FB) is inhaled accidentally into the airways. The location of the FB may differ according to each patient, but in most cases, the FB is found in the right bronchial tree. FBA symptoms …

Effects of pyramidal training on school psychologist and teacher implementation of trial-based function analysis
… typically conduct functional based assessments (FBA) using indirect and direct observations of the target student prior to. Research has indicated that descriptive assessments are not always reliable indicators of behavioral function, and thus should not be used exclusively when conducting FBA …

Metabolic influences on ageing in Caenorhabditis elegans: A time series multi-omics and metabolic modelling study
… using a method called Flux Balance Analysis (FBA). I describe a novel method for the integration of metabolomics data with FBA, and the results of a comparative analysis of the resulting fluxes in normal wild-type ageing. I then go on to describe the differences to a germline-free strain that …

Simulation, sensitivity analysis, and optimization of bioprocesses using dynamic flux balance analysis
… DNA sequencing. Flux balance analysis (FBA) is a modeling framework that incorporates this new information into mathematical models of microbial communities. With FBA, growth and exchange flux predictions are made by solving linear programs (LPs) that are constructed based on the …

A comparison of functional behaviour assessment rating scales in a sample of children and youth with autism spectrum disorders
… by this study, clinicians choosing to use FBA questionnaires to assess behavioural function, may not obtain accurate functional hypotheses, potentially resulting in ineffective intervention plans. The current study underscores the caution that must be taken when asking parents to complete …

Functional behavior assessment : increasing pre-service general education teachers' self-efficacy in managing classroom behavior.
… Classroom Management Self-Efficacy scale and the FBA General Knowledge Test as dependent variables. A total of 38 participants responded to three administrations as well as an additional retrospective self-efficacy scale. This additional scale was administered to compare means of the participants' …

USING THE POWER CARD STRATEGY TO INCREASE SOCIAL SKILLS: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW
… reading, if a functional behavior assessment (FBA) was completed, and how the special interest item (SIA) was chosen. Results of the review highlight the need for more research to evaluate which steps of the Power Card strategy are most effective, the need for a greater variety of target …

Interactive influences of crosslinking, counterface roughness and kinematics on the wear of crosslinked UHMWPE
… that the highly crosslinked UHMWPE had a lower FBA for debris from both the smooth and scratched counterfaces. The debris from the scratched tests had a higher FBA for all the materials because of the increased wear rates with the scratched counterface.

Systems metabolic engineering through application of genome-scale metabolic flux modeling
… Membrane Influx-Flux Balance Analysis, ToMI-FBA) was developed to allow for evaluating synthetic pathway use by different models. This enabled, for the first time, a computational guide for optimal host selection (for a specific metabolic engineering problem) and culture media formulation …

Computational modelling of the glycinergic synapse
… CNS cells was developed. Flux Balance Analysis (FBA) methods were applied to the model in order to establish the most likely pathways of glycine and ATP production across dierent CNS cell types, suggesting the compartmentalization of the serine/glycine metabolism in CNS cells. Furthermore, FBA …

Characterization and genome-scale metabolic modeling of catechol-degrading Pseudomonas fluorescens isolated from a petroleum hydrocarbon-impacted site
… has a P/O ratio of 11/8. Flux balance analysis (FBA) was performed to simulate the whole-cell metabolic flow. The simulation results suggested the β-ketoadipate pathway is involved in catechol metabolism by P. fluorescens while the uptake of oxygen is mandatory for cleavage of catechol’s aromatic …

Computational Labeling, Partitioning, and Balancing of Molecular Networks
… a differential interaction analysis, namely difFBA, on protein-protein interaction networks by simulating protein fluxes using flux balance analysis (FBA). We test difFBA using quantitative proteomic data from colon cancer, and demonstrate that difFBA offers more insights into functional changes …
