Are estimated control charts in control? [PDF]

, 2001
Standard control chart practice assumes normality and uses estimated parameters. Because of the extreme quantiles involved, large relative errors result. Here simple corrections are derived to bring such estimated charts under control.

Clinical Course and Impact of Breaks in Therapy for Children With Relapsed/Refractory Solid Tumors

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pediatric relapsed or refractory (R/R) solid tumors carry a dismal prognosis, and postrelapse patient experiences are not well described. We present postrelapse outcomes, including number of R/R events and subsequent therapy regimens.

Ordered samples control charts for ordinal variables

, 2005
The paper presents a new method for statistical process control when ordinal variables are involved. This is the case of a quality characteristic evaluated by an ordinal scale.

Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in

On the Effect of Estimation Error for the Risk-Adjusted Charts

Complexity, 2020
Control charts are a popular statistical process control (SPC) technique for monitoring to detect the unusual variations in different processes. Contrary to the classical charts, control charts have also been modified to include covariates using ...

Estimation in Shewhart control charts [PDF]

, 2000
The influence of the estimation of parameters in Shewhart control charts is investigated. It is shown by simulation and asymptotics that (very) large sample sizes are needed to accurately determine control charts if estimators are plugged in.

Transcriptional network analysis of PTEN‐protein‐deficient prostate tumors reveals robust stromal reprogramming and signs of senescent paracrine communication

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Combining PTEN protein assessment and transcriptomic profiling of prostate tumors, we uncovered a network enriched in senescence and extracellular matrix (ECM) programs associated with PTEN loss and conserved in a mouse model. We show that PTEN‐deficient cells trigger paracrine remodeling of the surrounding stroma and this information could help ...

Control Charts for Multivariate Nonlinear Time Series

Revstat Statistical Journal, 2015
In this paper control charts for the simultaneous monitoring of the means and the variances of multivariate nonlinear time series are introduced. The underlying target process is assumed to be a constant conditional correlation process (cf. [3]).

Phenotypic and genotypic characterization of single circulating tumor cells in the follow‐up of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Single circulating tumor cells (sCTCs) from high‐grade serous ovarian cancer patients were enriched, imaged, and genomically profiled using WGA and NGS at different time points during treatment. sCTCs revealed enrichment of alterations in Chromosomes 2, 7, and 12 as well as persistent or emerging oncogenic CNAs, supporting sCTC identity.

Risk-Adjusted Control Charts for Health Care Monitoring

International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2011
Attribute data from high-quality processes can be monitored effectively by deciding on whether or not to stop at each time where 𝑟≥1 failures have occurred.
