Multivariate statistical analysis of yield-determining factors [PDF]

Soil Science and Plant Nutrition, 1989
This study is aimed at developing a multivariate statistical method to identify yield-determining factors and to evaluate their relative magnitude. Principal component analysis was used to summarize the rice growing environment in a “hydromorphic” field into a number of factors which may affect the yield performance. Four major factors were recognized;

Potential Early Risk Biomarkers for Reduced Forced Expiratory Volume in Children Post‐Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We sought to identify potential early risk biomarkers for lung disease in children post‐allogeneic HCT. Patients with pulmonary function tests 3 months post‐transplant and plasma samples between days 7 and 14 post‐HCT were included. Six of 27 subjects enrolled had reduced forced expiratory volume 1 (FEV1) z scores.
