The Extremal Index of Sub-Sampled Periodic Sequences with Strong Local Dependence
Revstat Statistical Journal, 2003 Let X = {Xn}n≥1 be a T-periodic sequence. We define a family of local dependence conditions D (k) T (u), k ≥ 1, and calculate the extremal index θX from the distributions of k consecutive variables of X.

Detecting Extreme Values with Order Statistics in Samples from Continuous Distributions
Mathematics, 2020 In the subject of statistics for engineering, physics, computer science, chemistry, and earth sciences, one of the sampling challenges is the accuracy, or, in other words, how representative the sample is of the population from which it was drawn.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Primary lung carcinomas and bronchial carcinoid tumors (BC) are very rare malignancies in childhood. While typical BC and mucoepidermoid carcinomas are mostly low‐grade, localized tumors with a more favorable prognosis than in adults, necessitating avoidance of overtreatment, adenocarcinomas of the lung are often diagnosed at advanced disease ...

Extremal Properties of Extreme Value Distributions
The Annals of Mathematical Statistics, 1951 The upper and lower bounds for the expectation, the coefficient of variation, and the variance of the largest member of a sample from a symmetric population are discussed. The upper bound for the expectation (Table 1, Fig. 1), the lower bound for the C.V. (Table 2, Fig. 4) and the lower bound for the variance (Fig.

Improving extreme value statistics
Physical Review E, 2014 The rate of uniform convergence in extreme value statistics is non-universal and can be arbitrarily slow. Further, the relative error can be unbounded in the tail of the approximation, leading to difficulty in extrapolating the extreme value fit beyond the available data.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) is a rare soft tissue sarcoma occurring most commonly in adolescence and young adulthood. Methods We present the clinical characteristics, treatments, and outcomes of patients with newly diagnosed ASPS enrolled on the Children's Oncology Group study ARST0332.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Parents of children treated for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) often experience significant caregiver burden and disruption to their well‐being. While parent quality of life (QoL) during treatment is well characterized, little is known about outcomes during early survivorship.

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 This study examined 30-year of in situ observations (1981–2010) to determine monthly, and diurnal characteristics of near-surface temperature gradients (TG) in the Sudanese desert, both spatially and with elevation.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Adult‐onset Still's disease (AOSD) complicated by macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) carries substantial mortality. The role of therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) remains uncertain. Methods We retrospectively analyzed patients with AOSD‐MAS treated with TPE at a single‐center.
