Mortality among Lifelong Nonsmokers Exposed to Secondhand Smoke at Home: Cohort Data and Sensitivity Analyses [PDF]
, 2006 Evidence is growing that secondhand smoke can cause death from several diseases. The association between household exposure to secondhand smoke and disease-specific mortality was examined in two New Zealand cohorts of lifelong nonsmokers (‘‘never smokers’

Comment on "Including Systematic Uncertainties in Confidence Interval Construction for Poisson Statistics" [PDF]
, 2003 The incorporation of systematic uncertainties into confidence interval calculations has been addressed recently in a paper by Conrad et al. (Physical Review D 67 (2003) 012002).

Alendronate or alfacalcidol in glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis [PDF]
, 2006 BACKGROUND: Treatment with glucocorticoids is associated with bone loss starting soon after therapy is initiated and an increased risk of fracture. METHODS: We performed a randomized, double-placebo, double-blind clinical trial of 18 months' duration ...

Confidence Interval for Quantile Ratio of the Dagum Distribution
Revstat Statistical Journal, 2021 Inequality measures based on ratios of quantiles are frequently applied in economic research, especially to the analysis of income distributions. In the paper, we construct a confidence interval for such measures under the Dagum distribution which has ...

Admissibility of the usual confidence interval in linear regression
, 2010 Consider a linear regression model with independent and identically normally distributed random errors. Suppose that the parameter of interest is a specified linear combination of the regression parameters. We prove that the usual confidence interval for
