Improved Errors-in-Variables Estimators for Grouped Data [PDF]

open access: yes
Grouping models are widely used in economics but are subject to finite sample bias. I show that the standard errors-in-variables estimator (EVE) is exactly equivalent to the Jackknife Instrumental Variables Estimator (JIVE), and use this relationship to ...

The Diverse Neuromuscular Spectrum of VPS13A Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective VPS13A disease (chorea‐acanthocytosis) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder caused by biallelic variants in VPS13A, typically presenting with hyperkinetic movement disorders, while neuromuscular signs are often mild. The aim of the project was to investigate the frequency and severity of neuromuscular impairment in VPS13A disease ...
