ABSTRACT Background Chronic kidney disease is a growing public health problem worldwide, and the number of patients requiring renal replacement therapy is steadily increasing. Türkiye has experienced a similar rise in both the incidence and prevalence of renal replacement therapy over the past decades; however, national‐level projections of future ...

Unbiased Instrumental Variables Estimation Under Known First-Stage Sign [PDF]
We derive mean-unbiased estimators for the structural parameter in instrumental variables models with a single endogenous regressor where the sign of one or more first stage coefficients is known.

Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Accuracy gains from conservative forecasting: Tests using variations of 19 econometric models to predict 154 elections in 10 countries. [PDF]
PROBLEM:Do conservative econometric models that comply with the Golden Rule of Forecasting provide more accurate forecasts? METHODS:To test the effects of forecast accuracy, we applied three evidence-based guidelines to 19 published regression models ...

Bayesian D‐optimal designs for error‐in‐variables models [PDF]
Bayesian optimality criteria provide a robust design strategy to parameter misspecification. We develop an approximate design theory for Bayesian D‐optimality for nonlinear regression models with covariates subject to measurement errors. Both maximum likelihood and least squares estimation are studied, and explicit characterisations of the Bayesian D ...

Peptide‐based ligand antagonists block a Vibrio cholerae adhesin
The structure of a peptide‐binding domain of the Vibrio cholerae adhesin FrhA was solved by X‐ray crystallography, revealing how the inhibitory peptide AGYTD binds tightly at its Ca2+‐coordinated pocket. Structure‐guided design incorporating D‐amino acids enhanced binding affinity, providing a foundation for developing anti‐adhesion therapeutics ...

The Great Plains low-level jet (LLJ) is a contributing factor to the initiation and evolution of nocturnal Mesoscale Convective Systems (MCSs) in the central United States by supplying moisture, warm air advection, and a source of convergence.

An $\{l_1,l_2,l_{\infty}\}$-Regularization Approach to High-Dimensional Errors-in-variables Models
Several new estimation methods have been recently proposed for the linear regression model with observation error in the design. Different assumptions on the data generating process have motivated different estimators and analysis.

The role of histone modifications in transcription regulation upon DNA damage
This review discusses the critical role of histone modifications in regulating gene expression during the DNA damage response (DDR). By modulating chromatin structure and recruiting repair factors, these post‐translational modifications fine‐tune transcriptional programmes to maintain genomic stability.

Model-Robust Estimation of Multiple-Group Structural Equation Models
Structural equation models (SEM) are widely used in the social sciences. They model the relationships between latent variables in structural models, while defining the latent variables by observed variables in measurement models.
