Can the Parallel or Tandem Combination of Questionnaire‐Based Risk Assessment and Fecal Immunochemical Test Improve the Efficiency of Colorectal Cancer Screening?

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Colorectal cancer screening reduces disease burden, but the comparative performance of screening strategies remains unclear. This population‐based study shows that the tandem strategy (positive results from both questionnaire‐based risk assessment and fecal immunochemical testing) substantially improved the detection rates of colorectal cancer and ...

A multiplex interactome of Ebola virus proteins reveals TM9SF2 as a cell‐surface attachment factor that promotes viral entry

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
This study generates a comprehensive Ebola virus (EBOV)‐human protein–protein interactome, comprising 1728 core high‐confidence interactions. Further interactome analysis revealed the potential association of EBOV glycoprotein (GP) with the host factor TM9SF2. Subsequent mechanistic investigations confirmed that TM9SF2 functions as an attachment factor

Estimates of people who injected drugs within the last 12 months in Belgium based on a capture-recapture and multiplier method [PDF]

, 2020
Background For Belgium, available estimates of the number of people who inject drugs (PWID) are based on data from more than fifteen years ago and apply only to those who report ever injecting drugs.

Drivers and Challenges of Micro‐Irrigation Adoption and Intensity in India: A Study of Four States

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT India's food security relies substantially on groundwater, but inefficient irrigation is seriously depleting this resource. Micro‐irrigation (MI) improves irrigation application efficiency and productivity, yet adoption remains low. This study examines MI adoption across four major Indian states—Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and ...

Measurement errors in continuous-time capture-recapture models [PDF]

, 2013
The extent of bias due to measurement errors is an important problem in the context of regression and survival analysis. While research in these areas has been extensive and fruitful, investigations into the effect of measurement errors in capture ...

Evaluation of Panoramic Acquisition Errors by Predoctoral Dental Students

Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Panoramic radiography is commonly used in the management of dental‐alveolar pathology. Novice clinicians are prone to technical errors that diminish the diagnostic quality of radiographs. The objective of this study was to analyze technical errors made during panoramic exposures by third‐year (D3) dental students in order to enhance

Parameter Redundancy with Applications in Statistical Ecology [PDF]

, 2014
This thesis is concerned with parameter redundancy in statistical ecology models. If it is not possible to estimate all the parameters, a model is termed parameter redundant.

Local Log-Linear Models for Capture-Recapture [PDF]

, 2018
Capture-recapture (CRC) models use two or more samples, or lists, to estimate the size of a population. In the canonical example, a researcher captures, marks, and releases several samples of fish in a lake. When the fish that are captured more than once

Corticosterone Under Experimental Manipulation of Nutrition and Parasite Burden in a Wild Rodent System

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental pressures shape survival and life‐history dynamics partly by triggering the release of glucocorticoids, whose short‐term benefits but long‐term costs make it essential to understand what drives their levels. Here, we used an experimental manipulation of two environmental stressors—food availability and parasite burden—to directly
