N‐of‐1 trials in clinical research: Methodological foundations, statistical approaches and implementation challenges

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
N‐of‐1 trials offer a unique and rigorous methodology for evaluating individualized treatment responses, particularly within the context of personalized medicine. This article provides a comprehensive explanation of the conceptual and methodological underpinnings of N‐of‐1 trials, with particular emphasis on statistical techniques and considerations ...

Asymptotic Properties of a Statistical Estimator of the Jeffreys Divergence: The Case of Discrete Distributions

open access: yesMathematics
We investigate the asymptotic properties of the plug-in estimator for the Jeffreys divergence, the symmetric variant of the Kullback–Leibler (KL) divergence. This study focuses specifically on the divergence between discrete distributions. Traditionally,

Why we age

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Three categories of explanations exist for why we age: mechanistic theories, which omit reference to evolutionary forces; weakening force of selection theories, which posit that barriers exist that prevent evolutionary forces from optimising fitness in ageing; and optimisation theories, which posit that evolutionary forces actually select for ...

MLEce: Statistical inference for asymptotically efficient closed-form estimators in R

open access: yesSoftwareX
Maximum likelihood estimation is a classical method with useful properties like efficiency, consistency, and asymptotic normality. However, the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) cannot be in closed form in many distributions.

Does ESG Investing Pay off? Comparing the Performance of ESG and Traditional ETFs Across European and US Markets

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Investors have long recognized the importance of firms in promoting sustainability, leading to the rise of socially responsible investment (SRI). Specifically, there is a growing preference for exchange‐traded funds (ETFs) that prioritize environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles.

Asymptotics for random effects models with serial correlation [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper considers the large sample behavior of the maximum likelihood estimator of random effects models. Consistent estimation and asymptotic normality as N and/or T grows large is established for a comprehensive specification which allows for serial
