Clinical and Modifiable Factors Associated With Disability and Relapse in MOGAD: A Multicentre Cohort Study

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Factors associated with relapse course and disability in myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody‐associated disease (MOGAD) remain incompletely understood. Objectives To identify clinical and modifiable factors associated with relapse and disability in MOGAD. Methods In this ambispective multicentre cohort study using data from

Geoadditive hazard regression for interval censored survival times [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The Cox proportional hazards model is the most commonly used method when analyzing the impact of covariates on continuous survival times. In its classical form, the Cox model was introduced in the setting of right-censored observations.

An EM algorithm for GMM parameter estimation in the presence of censored and dropped data with potential application for indoor positioning

open access: yesICT Express, 2019
In this paper, a specific type of incomplete data in Wi-Fi fingerprinting based indoor positioning systems (WF-IPS) is presented: censored and dropped mixture data. For fitting this type of data, a censored and dropped Gaussian Mixture Model (CD-GMM) was

Anti‐CD20 Discontinuation Versus Continuation in People Aged Over 50 With Non‐Active Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To determine whether discontinuing anti‐CD20 therapy in people with relapsing‐onset MS aged over 50 is associated with an increased risk of relapse, inflammatory activity, confirmed disability accrual, and serious infection compared with continuing therapy.

Testing for mechanistic interactions in long-term follow-up studies. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
In follow-up studies, interactions are often assessed by including a cross-product term in a (multiplicative) Cox model. However, epidemiologists/clinicians often misinterpret a significant multiplicative interaction as a genuine mechanistic interaction.

Safety and Efficacy of GLP‐1 Receptor Agonists in Adults With Epilepsy, Obesity, and Type 2 Diabetes

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Managing obesity in patients with epilepsy is complicated by the weight‐gaining properties of essential antiseizure medications (ASMs) such as valproate and pregabalin. We evaluated the safety and efficacy of initiating glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs) in this population.

Determinants of Lifetime Unemployment: A Micro Data Analysis with Censored Quantile Regressions [PDF]

open access: yes
The empirical literature on unemployment almost exclusively focuses on the duration of distinct unemployment spells. In contrast, we use a large German administrative micro data set for the time span 1975-2004 to investigate individual lifetime ...

Measuring Inequality Using Censored Data: A Multiple Imputation Approach [PDF]

open access: yes
To measure income inequality with right censored (topcoded) data, we propose multiple imputation for censored observations using draws from Generalized Beta of the Second Kind distributions to provide partially synthetic datasets analyzed using complete ...

Classical and Bayesian Inference Using Type-II Unified Progressive Hybrid Censored Samples for Pareto Model

open access: yesApplied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2022
In the lifetime and reliability experiments, the censored samples play a fundamental and important role in order to control time and cost. The researchers developed the censored sample schemes to solve the problems that arise by applying the previous ...
