ABSTRACT Population models to identify optimal dosages typically include the evaluation of a drug's pharmacokinetics and the relationships with efficacy and safety. Dose modifications due to intolerable toxicities are frequently required for oncology therapeutics taken chronically and may impact antitumor activity and subsequent occurrences of adverse ...

Skew-Reflected-Gompertz Information Quantifiers with Application to Sea Surface Temperature Records
The Skew-Reflected-Gompertz (SRG) distribution, introduced by Hosseinzadeh et al. (J. Comput. Appl. Math. (2019) 349, 132–141), produces two-piece asymmetric behavior of the Gompertz (GZ) distribution, which extends the positive to a whole dominion by an

Abstract State‐of‐the‐art models for soil compaction express soil strength by the so‐called precompression stress. The idea is to avoid stresses higher than those previously exposed to the soil. However, the quantification of soil precompression stress generally implies a problematic logarithmic transformation of the applied stress.

Objective Posterior Analysis of kth Record Statistics in Gompertz Model
The Gompertz distribution has proven highly valuable in modeling human mortality rates and assessing the impacts of catastrophic events, such as plagues, financial crashes, and famines.

On order statistics from the Gompertz–Makeham distribution and the Lambert W function
The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we show that the expected value of the minimum order statistic from the Gompertz-Makeham distribution can be expressed in closed form in terms of the incomplete gamma function.

Abstract Although individuals may exhibit both gradual and abrupt changes in their dynamic properties as shaped by both slowly accumulating influences and acute events, existing statistical frameworks offer limited capacity for the simultaneous detection and representation of these distinct change patterns.

Indirect Interactions Driven by Soil Effects Enable Coexistence Among Competing Plant Species
We show that soil‐mediated indirect interactions can stabilize coexistence between competing plant species. Soil conditioned by a mediating species alters the microbial communities, metabolites and nutrients, boosting the growth of the weak competitor while reducing the germination of the dominant competing species.

ABSTRACT This study evaluated the combined effects of sex inversion and microencapsulated supplementation with organic acids and essential oils on growth performance, tissue morphology, gene expression, and oxidative status in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) larvae.

ABSTRACT Natural capital accounting provides a framework for integrating ecological processes with economic valuation, but the mechanics of shadow price formation often remain opaque to resource managers and policymakers. Using the Clarks Fork elk herd in northwestern Wyoming as a case study, we decompose the shadow price of natural capital into its ...
