Mediation Analysis for Count and Zero-Inflated Count Data without Sequential Ignorability and Its Application in Dental Studies [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
Mediation analysis seeks to understand the mechanism by which a treatment affects an outcome. Count or zero-inflated count outcome are common in many studies in which mediation analysis is of interest. For example, in dental studies, outcomes such as decayed, missing and filled teeth are typically zero inflated.

CircAars‐Engineered ADSCs Facilitate Maxillofacial Bone Defects Repair Via Synergistic Capability of Osteogenic Differentiation, Macrophage Polarization and Angiogenesis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 14, Issue 10, April 15, 2025.
Schematic representation of circAars‐engineered‐ADSCs incorporated into GelMA scaffolds for craniomaxillofacial bone regeneration. CircAars‐engineered ADSCs embedded in GelMA scaffolds enhance the repair of critical‐sized bone defects by binding miR‐128‐3p in the cytoplasm, thereby inhibiting its activity.
