Confidence intervals: Concepts, fallacies, criticisms, solutions and beyond [PDF]

open access: yesNetwork Biology, 2022
For a long time, confidence interval theory is the basis of statistics, and confidence interval has been regarded as an important content of statistical analysis.

Confidence interval based parameter estimation--a new SOCR applet and activity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Many scientific investigations depend on obtaining data-driven, accurate, robust and computationally-tractable parameter estimates. In the face of unavoidable intrinsic variability, there are different algorithmic approaches, prior assumptions and ...

Colorectal cancer‐derived FGF19 is a metabolically active serum biomarker that exerts enteroendocrine effects on mouse liver

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Meta‐transcriptome analysis identified FGF19 as a peptide enteroendocrine hormone associated with colorectal cancer prognosis. In vivo xenograft models showed release of FGF19 into the blood at levels that correlated with tumor volumes. Tumoral‐FGF19 altered murine liver metabolism through FGFR4, thereby reducing bile acid synthesis and increasing ...

Identification of serum protein biomarkers for pre‐cancerous lesions associated with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This work identified serum proteins associated with pancreatic epithelial neoplasms (PanINs) and early‐stage PDAC. Proteomics screens assessed genetically engineered mice with abundant PanINs, KPC mice (Lox‐STOP‐Lox‐KrasG12D/+ Lox‐STOP‐Lox‐Trp53R172H/+ Pdx1‐Cre) before PDAC development and also early‐stage PDAC patients (n = 31), compared to benign ...

Comparisons of multivariate GR&R methods using bootstrap confidence interval

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Technology, 2016
This paper aimed to compare the performance of multivariate GR&R (gage repeatability and reproducibility) studies based on PCA (principal component analysis) and Manova (multivariate analysis of variance) methods. To estimate the multivariate gauge index,

Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 increases metastatic potential and aggressiveness in colorectal cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...

Computationally efficient permutation-based confidence interval estimation for tail-area FDR

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2013
Challenges of satisfying parametric assumptions in genomic settings with thousands or millions of tests have led investigators to combine powerful False Discovery Rate (FDR) approaches with computationally expensive but exact permutation testing.

On the Number of Bootstrap Repetitions for BC_a Confidence Intervals [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper considers the problem of choosing the number bootstrap repetitions B to use with the BC_{a} bootstrap confidence intervals introduced by Efron (1987).

The association between sleep patterns and obesity in older adults. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BackgroundReduced sleep duration has been increasingly reported to predict obesity. However, timing and regularity of sleep may also be important. In this study, the cross-sectional association between objectively measured sleep patterns and obesity was ...

Targeted modulation of IGFL2‐AS1 reveals its translational potential in cervical adenocarcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cervical adenocarcinoma patients face worse outcomes than squamous cell carcinoma counterparts despite similar treatment. The identification of IGFL2‐AS1's differential expression provides a molecular basis for distinguishing these histotypes, paving the way for personalized therapies and improved survival in vulnerable populations globally.
