Interpreting the international trends in testicular seminoma and nonseminoma incidence.

, 2006
There are considerable geographic, ethnic and temporal variations in the global incidence of testicular cancer. The disease mainly affects Western populations, with average rates in developed areas of the world six times higher than those in developing ...

Trends in testicular cancer incidence and mortality in 22 European countries: continuing increases in incidence and declines in mortality.

, 2006
This study profiles testicular cancer incidence and mortality across Europe, and the effects of age, period and generational influences, using age-period-cohort modeling. Despite a 5-fold variation in incidence rates, there were consistent mean increases

Opening the black box: defining true-negative outcomes in esophageal cancer screening — a population-based study

BMC Medicine
Background Current negativity definition in esophageal cancer screening overlooks the risk heterogeneity between individuals with non-dysplastic Lugol’s unstained lesions (ND-LULs) and normal-stained epithelium.

Cumulative Prospect Theory and the St.Petersburg Paradox [PDF]

We find that in cumulative prospect theory (CPT) with a concave value function in gains, a lottery with finite expected value may have infinite subjective value. This problem does not occur in expected utility theory.

Identifiability and estimation of the sign of a covariate effect in the competing risks model. [PDF]

It is well known that the competing risks model is identified if the dependence structure between risks (the copula function) is known or assumed. Special cases include independence of risks or independent censoring.
