Count data models with variance of unknown form: an application to a hedonic model of worker absenteeism [PDF]

, 1997
We examine an econometric model of counts of worker absences due to illness in a sluggishly adjusting hedonic labor market. We compare three estimators that parameterize the conditional variance?least squares, Poisson, and negative binomial pseudo ...

Battle of Water Demand Forecasting: Integrating Machine Learning with a Heuristic Post-Process for Short-Term Prediction of Urban Water Demand

Engineering Proceedings
The challenge in water demand forecasting within a Northeast Italy water distribution network (WDN) involves predicting demands across ten distinct District Metered Areas (DMAs) with varying characteristics and demand profiles.

Left ventricular global longitudinal strain predicts elevated cardiac pressures and poor clinical outcomes in patients with non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy

Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2021
Background Risk stratification in patients with non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (NI-DCM) is essential to treatment planning. Global longitudinal strain (GLS) predicts poor prognosis in various cardiac diseases, but it has not been evaluated in a ...

Influence of ultrasound transmit frequency on measurement of global longitudinal strain on 2D speckle tracking echocardiography

Scientific Reports, 2023
The reproducibility of longitudinal strain measured by 2D speckle tracking echocardiography (2DSTE) may be affected by ultrasound settings. This study investigated the effect of transmit ultrasound frequency on global longitudinal strain (GLS) by 2DSTE ...

Optimization of extraction and nanoencapsulation of kimchi cabbage by-products to enhance the simulated in vitro digestion of glucosinolates

Heliyon, 2023
Kimchi cabbage is a well-known glucosinolate (GLS)-containing vegetable, but its by-products are discarded despite the presence of GLS. The aim of this study was the optimization of the extraction and nanoencapsulation of GLS from kimchi cabbage by ...

Prognostic Implications of Biventricular Global Longitudinal Strain in Patients With Severe Isolated Tricuspid Regurgitation

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
BackgroundIsolated TV surgery can be performed in patients with symptoms caused by severe isolated tricuspid regurgitation (TR), preferably before the onset of significant right ventricular (RV) dysfunction.

Modelling extreme concentration from a source in a turbulent flow over rough wall [PDF]

, 2007
The concentration fluctuations in passive plumes from an elevated and a groundlevel source in a turbulent boundary layer over a rough wall were studied using large eddy simulation and wind tunnel experiment.

Aggressive prostate cancer is associated with pericyte dysfunction

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumor‐produced TGF‐β drives pericyte dysfunction in prostate cancer. This dysfunction is characterized by downregulation of some canonical pericyte markers (i.e., DES, CSPG4, and ACTA2) while maintaining the expression of others (i.e., PDGFRB, NOTCH3, and RGS5).

The Gross--Llewellyn Smith Sum Rule in the Analytic Approach to Perturbative QCD [PDF]

, 1998
We apply analytic perturbation theory to the Gross--Llewellyn Smith sum rule. We study the $Q^2$ evolution and the renormalization scheme dependence of the analytic three-loop QCD correction to this sum rule, and demonstrate that the results are ...
