Hepatology Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Aim Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is curative therapy for early‐stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but a rare subset of patients develop aggressive intrasegmental recurrence shortly after complete ablation. We characterized the incidence, risk factors, and absolute risk.

When in Doubt, Tax More Progressively? Uncertainty and Progressive Income Taxation
International Economic Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We study the optimal income tax problem under parameter uncertainty about household preferences and wage dynamics. We derive conditions characterizing how such uncertainty affects optimal tax policy. To quantify the effect, we estimate a life‐cycle model using US data and a Bayesian approach.

The Distributional Effects of Economic Uncertainty*
International Economic Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We study the distributional implications of uncertainty shocks by developing a model that links macroeconomic aggregates to the US distribution of earnings and consumption. Our findings suggest that the fraction of low‐earning workers decreases initially, while the share of households reporting low consumption increases.

A Horse Race of Machine‐Learning Methods to Predict Banking Crises
International Finance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT To examine if one machine‐learning model can consistently elucidate financial vulnerabilities, both over time and across levels of development, this paper applies 13 machine‐learning algorithms to evaluate comparative forecasting performance across several banking crises.

Unconditional Variance Estimation Under Complex Surveys
International Statistical Review, EarlyView.Summary The unconditional framework treats the samples and the variables of interest as random variables. This is particularly suitable with analytic inference, when modelling survey data. We show that variance estimation does not involve finite population corrections and joint‐inclusion probabilities, even with large sampling fractions and under ...

The Random Power Function for Tests Based on Pivotal Quantities
International Statistical Review, EarlyView.Summary In clinical trials planning, evaluation of the probability of success of an experiment is of central interest, for instance, in sample size determination. This assessment typically involves analyses of the power function of a test on a parameter of interest, such as a relevant treatment effect.

International Statistical Review, EarlyView.Summary In high‐dimensional survival analysis, effective variable selection is crucial both for model interpretation and predictive performance. This paper investigates Cox regression with lasso and adaptive lasso penalties in genomic datasets where covariates far outnumber observations.
