Two Monotonicity Results for Beta Distribution Functions

Entropy
Write pbeta(·,α,β) for the distribution function of the Beta distribution with parameters α and β. We show that α↦pbeta(α/(α+β),α,β) is decreasing and α↦pbeta(α/(α+β),α+1,β) is increasing over the positive reals, with the common limit for α→∞ expressible

Serum Uric Acid Levels in Older Adults: Associations With Clinical Outcomes and Implications for Reference Intervals in Those Aged 70 Years and Over

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Reports have linked both high and low serum uric acid (SUA) levels to adverse health outcomes. This study aimed to establish a reference interval for SUA in older adults and assessed its association with clinically relevant outcomes in relatively healthy, community‐dwelling individuals aged ≥70 years old.

The Variance-Gamma Product Distribution

Results in Mathematics
Abstract We derive the exact probability density function of the product of N independent variance-gamma random variables with zero location parameter. We then apply this formula to derive formulas for the cumulative distribution function and characteristic function, as well

Effectiveness and Safety of Baricitinib for Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis–Associated Uveitis or Chronic Anterior Antinuclear Antibody–Positive Uveitis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of baricitinib in pediatric patients with active juvenile idiopathic arthritis–associated uveitis (JIA‐U) or chronic anterior antinuclear antibody–positive uveitis, who had an inadequate response to methotrexate (MTX) or biologic disease‐modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs).

Serum Soluble Mediator Signatures of Lupus Nephritis: Histologic Features and Response to Treatment

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Lupus nephritis (LN) management remains challenging, and novel noninvasive biomarkers are needed. This study quantified serum soluble mediators in the Accelerating Medicines Partnership (AMP) LN cohort to identify biomarkers of histologic features and treatment response.

Impact of Positive Lifestyle Behaviors on Direct Health Care Cost Savings for Low Back Pain

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This study aimed to investigate the relationship between a previously purpose‐developed lifestyle behavior scale and health care cost savings related to low back pain (LBP). Methods This longitudinal study used data from the Australian Twin Back (AUTBACK) study. LBP and lifestyle behavior measures were collected at baseline. Physical activity
