Reduction in Renal Relapse and Preservation of Long‐Term Kidney Function After Lupus Low Disease Activity in Patients With Lupus Nephritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Lupus low disease activity state (LLDAS) is a validated treatment target in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), but limited studies have explored the role of LLDAS in lupus nephritis (LN). This study aims to investigate the frequency and predictors of LLDAS attainment and its benefit on LN relapse and renal function preservation in patients ...

On Mixture Failure Rates Ordering [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications in Statistics - Theory and Methods, 2006
Mixtures of increasing failure rate distributions (IFR) can decrease at least in some intervals of time. Usually, this property can be observed asymptotically as t → ∞. This is due to the fact that the mixture failure rate is “bent down” compared with the corresponding unconditional expectation of the baseline failure rate, which was proved previously ...

Identification of Failure Rates

Calcutta Statistical Association Bulletin, 2003
In this paper, we give an identity based on conditional mean to determine the failure rate of a distribution. Some well-known characterizations are deduced as special cases. We also present various applications of the identity. By extending this to the bivariate case, we obtain a class of distributions with a specified form of failure rate. Finally we

Relationship Between System Failure Rate and Component Failure Rates

Technometrics, 1963
A simple sufficient condition is given for a system to have an increasing failure rate when the identical components comprising it have an increasing failure rate. Systems which function if and only if at least k of the n components function (“k out of n” systems) satisfy this condition.
