The R Package JMbayes for Fitting Joint Models for Longitudinal and Time-to-Event Data using MCMC [PDF]
Joint models for longitudinal and time-to-event data constitute an attractive modeling framework that has received a lot of interest in the recent years. This paper presents the capabilities of the R package JMbayes for fitting these models under a Bayesian approach using Markon chain Monte Carlo algorithms. JMbayes can fit a wide range of joint models,

Contribution of resident stem cells to liver and biliary tree regeneration in human diseases [PDF]
Two distinct stem/progenitor cell populations of biliary origin have been identified in the adult liver and biliary tree. Hepatic Stem/progenitor Cells (HpSCs) are bipotent progenitor cells located within the canals of Hering and can be differentiated ...

COG6‐related prenatal phenotype (CDG2L): Clinico‐pathological report and review of the literature
Abstract Background CDG2L (MIM#614576) is an autosomal recessive multisystemic disorder due to variants in COG6 gene. Postnatal phenotypes are now well described, while prenatal presentations remain poorly investigated. Only 8 of the 28 published patients have had prenatal ultrasound anomalies reported and no one post‐mortem investigation.

L0 regularisation for the estimation of piecewise constant hazard rates in survival analysis [PDF]
In a survival analysis context we suggest a new method to estimate the piecewise constant hazard rate model. The method provides an automatic procedure to find the number and location of cut points and to estimate the hazard on each cut interval. Estimation is performed through a penalized likelihood using an adaptive ridge procedure.

A rare case of Biliary Atresia with Biliary Ascites on a (Hepatobiliary Iminodiacetic Acid) HIDA scan [PDF]
Biliary atresia is one of the most challenging conditions in pediatric surgery even when it is the only finding. Here we present a rare case of biliary atresia complicated with biliary ascites due to ductal perforation identified on a hepatobiliary ...
