Impact of urbanization on morbidity of hepatitis A: a national panel study in China during 2005–2018
Background The effect of urbanization on the morbidity of hepatitis A remains unclear. We aimed to estimate the association between various urbanization-related indices and hepatitis A morbidity in China. Methods Data on the annual morbidity of hepatitis

Simultaneous Inference in General Parametric Models [PDF]
Simultaneous inference is a common problem in many areas of application. If multiple null hypotheses are tested simultaneously, the probability of rejecting erroneously at least one of them increases beyond the pre-specified significance level ...

Model-Based Geostatistics for Prevalence Mapping in Low-Resource Settings [PDF]
In low-resource settings, prevalence mapping relies on empirical prevalence data from a finite, often spatially sparse, set of surveys of communities within the region of interest, possibly supplemented by remotely sensed images that can act as proxies ...

Non-linear Mixed Models in a Dose Response Modelling
Study designs in which an outcome is measured more than once from time to time result in longitudinal data. Most of the methodological works have been done in the setting of linear and generalized linear models, where some amount of linearity is retained.

A mixed effect model for bivariate meta-analysis of diagnostic test accuracy studies using a copula representation of the random effects distribution [PDF]
Diagnostic test accuracy studies typically report the number of true positives, false positives, true negatives and false negatives. There usually exists a negative association between the number of true positives and true negatives, because studies that

On the application of generalized linear mixed models for predicting path loss in LTE networks
To meet the ever-growing demand for higher data rates, accurate channel models are needed for optimal design and deployment of mobile wireless networks. This work proposes a new method for addressing path loss modeling at 800 MHz of suburban environment ...
