Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

Parameter and Reliability Inferences of Inverted Exponentiated Half-Logistic Distribution under the Progressive First-Failure Censoring

Mathematics, 2020
Using progressive first-failure censored samples, we mainly study the inferences of the unknown parameters and the reliability and failure functions of the Inverted Exponentiated Half-Logistic distribution.

Case Report: Filling Defect in Posterior Semicircular Canal on MRI With Balanced Steady-State Gradient-Echo Sequences After Labyrinthine Ischemia in the Common Cochlear Artery Territory as an Early Sign of Fibrosis

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
We describe a rare case of posterior semicircular canal (PSC) fibrosis following acute labyrinthine ischemia in the territory supplied by the common cochlear artery (CCA) and review the relevant literature.

Estimation of the Parameter of a Bernoulli Distribution Using a Balanced Loss Function [PDF]

Communications for Statistical Applications and Methods, 2002
In decision theoretic estimation, the loss function usually emphasizes precision of estimation. However, one may have interest in goodness of fit of the overall model as well as precision of estimation. From this viewpoint, Zellner(1994) proposed the balanced loss function which takes account of both "goodness of fit" and "precision of estimation ...

Prognosis of Long‐Term Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy and the Impact of Combined Continuous Intravenous Sodium Infusion Therapy

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Patients requiring long‐term continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) generally have poor prognoses. This study evaluated whether adding continuous intravenous sodium infusion (cIVNa) is associated with improved hemodynamics and outcomes in patients undergoing long‐term CRRT for ≥ 7 days.

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

On shrinkage estimators improving the James-Stein estimator under balanced loss function

, 2021
In this paper, we are interested in estimating a multivariate normal mean under the balanced loss function using the shrinkage estimators deduced from the Maximum Likelihood Estimator (MLE).

A new approach for shrinkage estimators of the multivariate normal mean vector under the balanced loss criterion

Frontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics
In this study, we investigate the issue of estimating the mean vector of a multivariate normal distribution. We introduce two new families of shrinkage estimators derived from both the maximum likelihood estimator and the James-Stein estimator.
