Estimating the proportion of modern contraceptives supplied by the public and private sectors using a Bayesian hierarchical penalized spline model [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Quantifying the public/private sector supply of contraceptive methods within countries is vital for effective and sustainable family planning (FP) delivery. In many low and middle-income countries (LMIC), measuring the contraceptive supply source often relies on Demographic Health Surveys (DHS).

Interlaboratory variability of activated protein C resistance using the ETP‐based APC resistance assay

open access: yesResearch and Practice in Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2021
Background and objective Although the endogenous thrombin potential (ETP)‐based activated protein C (APC) resistance is recommended for the development of steroid contraceptive agents, one of the main limitations of this technique was its lack of ...

Short peptide perturbs spermatogenesis via immune microenvironment dysregulation and mitochondrial imbalance

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In the blood–testis barrier, occludin is crucial for tight junctions. This study demonstrates that occludin‐targeting short peptides disrupt junction integrity, inducing immune cell infiltration, tumor necrosis factor‐α/interleukin‐6 secretion and mitochondrial dysfunction, ultimately triggering apoptosis.

Generate Descriptive Social Networks for Large Populations from Available Observations: A Novel Methodology and a Generator [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
When modeling a social dynamics with an agent-oriented approach, researchers have to describe the structure of interactions within the population. Given the intractability of extensive network collecting, they rely on random network generators that are supposed to explore the space of plausible networks.

The large sample coverage probability of confidence intervals in general regression models after a preliminary hypothesis test [PDF]

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Statistics, 46, 432-445 (2019), 2017
We derive a computationally convenient formula for the large sample coverage probability of a confidence interval for a scalar parameter of interest following a preliminary hypothesis test that a specified vector parameter takes a given value in a general regression model.
