Background Gynecologic patients undergoing day surgery are discharged in an intermediate stage of recovery. The quality of discharge teaching and discharge readiness are important to patients’ postsurgical outcomes, but little research has focused on ...

Schauder Estimates for Equations Associated with Lévy Generators [PDF]
We study the regularity of solutions to the integro-differential equation $Af- f=g$ associated with the infinitesimal generator $A$ of a L vy process. We show that gradient estimates for the transition density can be used to derive Schauder estimates for $f$.

A Generalized Estimating Equations Approach to Model Heterogeneity and Time Dependence in Capture-Recapture Studies [PDF]
Individual heterogeneity in capture probabilities and time dependence are fundamentally important for estimating the closed animal population parameters in capture-recapture studies.

Techniques for Estimating Flood-Frequency Discharges for Streams in Iowa, HR-395A, 2001 [PDF]
A statewide study was conducted to develop regression equations for estimating flood-frequency discharges for ungaged stream sites in Iowa. Thirty-eight selected basin characteristics were quantified and flood-frequency analyses were computed for ...

Analysis of Comparative Data Using Generalized Estimating Equations [PDF]
It is widely acknowledged that the analysis of comparative data from related species should be performed taking into account their phylogenetic relationships. We introduce a new method, based on the use of generalized estimating equations (GEE), for the analysis of comparative data.

Background Although the expenses of liver cirrhosis are covered by a critical illness fund under the current health insurance program in China, the medical costs associated with hepatitis B virus (HBV) related diseases is not well addressed.

On Ill-Conditioned Generalized Estimating Equations and Toward Unified Biased Estimation [PDF]
I address the issue of ill-conditioned regressors within generalized estimating equations (GEEs). In such a setting, standard GEE approaches can have problems with: convergence, large coefficient variances, poor prediction, deflated power of tests, and ...

The cluster bootstrap consistency in generalized estimating equations
The cluster bootstrap resamples clusters or subjects instead of individual observations in order to preserve the dependence within each cluster or subject. In this paper, we provide a theoretical justification of using the cluster bootstrap for the inferences of the generalized estimating equations (GEE) for clustered/longitudinal data.
