Performance and Determinants of Serum Creatinine and Cystatin C–Based GFR Estimating Equations in South Asians [PDF]
Kidney International Reports, 2021 Introduction: The creatinine-based Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) equation was calibrated for the general Pakistan population (eGFRcr-PK) to eliminate bias and improve accuracy ...

Assessing the Impacts of Meteorological Factors on COVID-19 Pandemic Using Generalized Estimating Equations [PDF]
Frontiers in Public Health, 2022 BackgroundMeteorological factors have been proven to affect pathogens; both the transmission routes and other intermediate. Many studies have worked on assessing how those meteorological factors would influence the transmissibility of COVID-19.

A selective review of statistical methods using calibration information from similar studies
Statistical Theory and Related Fields, 2022 In the era of big data, divide-and-conquer, parallel, and distributed inference methods have become increasingly popular. How to effectively use the calibration information from each machine in parallel computation has become a challenging task for ...

Gee-logit model corrected biplots with harvest effects on coffee beans grading
Bioscience Journal, 2021 In a granulometric analysis of coffee beans with different categories of defects, the data can be organized in contingency tables, and when considering the discrimination by harvest, they may have a structure that suggest a more complex model, by means ...

Estimating Euler Equations [PDF]
Working Paper Series, 2000 In this paper we consider conditions under which the estimation of a log-linearized Euler equation for consumption yields consistent estimates of the preference parameters. When utility is isoelastic and a sample covering a long time period is available, consistent estimates are obtained from the log-linearized Euler equation when the innovations to ...

SMOOTHED ESTIMATING EQUATIONS FOR INSTRUMENTAL VARIABLES QUANTILE REGRESSION [PDF]
Econometric Theory, 2016 The moment conditions or estimating equations for instrumental variables quantile regression involve the discontinuous indicator function. We instead use smoothed estimating equations (SEE), with bandwidth h.
