Using Bayesian Model Averaging to Analyse Hierarchical Health Data: model implementation and application to linked health service use data

open access: yesInternational Journal of Population Data Science, 2017
Objective The majority of standard coding systems applied to health data are hierarchical: they start with several major categories and then each category is broken into subcategories across multiple levels.

Korean Translation and Psychometric Properties of Self-Report Instrument for Mobility Measuring for Adults With Lower Limb Amputation [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Rehabilitation Medicine
Objective To assess mobility in prosthetic limb users, the Prosthetic Limb Users Survey of Mobility (PLUS-M) was developed as a brief item bank. The PLUS-M exhibits good reliability and has been translated into more than 15 languages; however, a Korean ...

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

Airborne Levels of Lung Carcinogens at an Ascon Manufacturing Site

open access: yesAerosol and Air Quality Research, 2020
We assessed the airborne concentrations of the dust (both total and respirable), quartz, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and elemental carbon in an ascon manufacturing environment to determine the exposure to operators and the likelihood of developing ...

Matrix compensation and diagonal compensation

open access: yesJournal of Computational and Applied Mathematics, 1995
Let \(A\) be a symmetric positive definite matrix which is decomposed as \(A=B+R\) in some natural way. Typically \(B\) has a special sparsity pattern and \(R\) can be considered as a ``rest''. A matrix \(D\) is called a compensative matrix of \(R\) if \(D-R\) is positive semidefinite. Now define \(M=B+D\), so \(M\) is a compensative matrix of \(A\). \(

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...
