Serum Proteomic Signatures of RA Risk and Response: Analysis of the APIPPRA Trial

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective To identify serum protein signatures associated with progression to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and response to abatacept in at‐risk individuals. Methods A total of 440 serum samples from 118 APIPPRA study participants were selected from baseline to RA onset for 46 RA progressors or to study end for 72 participants who did not develop RA ...

Treatment of a large cohort of childhood chronic non‐infectious uveitis a multicentric large study: adalimumab versus methotrexate as first line therapy

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Background Treatment of childhood chronic idiopathic uveitis (cCIU) is predominantly based on studies in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis associated uveitis and expert opinion. Our aim was to report the treatment outcomes of our cohort of cCIU. Methods Retrospective multicenter study involving the rheuma/ophthalmology units at Florence and Bristol.

There is a method to the madness, and a madness to the method: A beginner's guide to qualitative research

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Qualitative research is increasingly engaged in anatomical sciences education research. However, many in the discipline are not formally trained in qualitative methodology and—like other research methods—qualitative methods are continually developed and enhanced.

The Best Linear Unbiased Estimator for Continuation of a Function

, 2010
We show how to construct the best linear unbiased predictor (BLUP) for the continuation of a curve in a spline-function model. We assume that the entire curve is drawn from some smooth random process and that the curve is given up to some cut point. We demonstrate how to compute the BLUP efficiently. Confidence bands for the BLUP are discussed. Finally,

An Examination of Racial Bias in Scoring the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) Module 3: An Item Response Theory Analysis

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Given the rising prevalence of autism among racial minority children in the United States, but persistent service use disparities, this study examines potential bias in specific items from the autism diagnostic observation schedule (ADOS), a highly regarded autism evaluation.

Mechanism‐informed machine learning for individualized tacrolimus dose adjustment in the early post‐kidney transplant period

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Tacrolimus dosing in the early post‐kidney transplant period is challenging due to a narrow therapeutic index and substantial interindividual pharmacokinetic (PK) variability. This study aimed to develop and validate mechanism‐informed machine learning (ML) models to support individualized tacrolimus dosing during this critical period ...

AIC, Cp and estimators of loss for elliptically symmetric distributions

, 2013
In this article, we develop a modern perspective on Akaike's Information Criterion and Mallows' Cp for model selection. Despite the diff erences in their respective motivation, they are equivalent in the special case of Gaussian linear regression.

Applying the theory of planned behaviour to examine teachers' intentions to teach in inclusive classrooms and their inclusive practices

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Given the vital role of teachers in inclusive education, there has been growing interest in teacher‐related factors that influence their intentions to teach in inclusive classrooms and their inclusive practices. Based on Ajzen's theory of planned behaviour, we investigated the relationship between teachers’ affective attitudes towards ...
