Modeling of Disease Progression of Type 2 Diabetes Using Real‐World Data: Quantifying Competing Risks of Morbidity and Mortality

open access: yesCPT: Pharmacometrics &Systems Pharmacology, Volume 14, Issue 3, Page 606-615, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a progressive metabolic disorder that could be an underlying cause of long‐term complications that increase mortality. The assessment of the probability of such events could be essential for mortality risk management. This work aimed to establish a framework for risk predictions of macrovascular complications (MVC) and

The New Gompertz Distribution Model and Applications

open access: yesSymmetry
The Gompertz distribution has long been a cornerstone for analyzing growth processes and mortality patterns across various scientific disciplines. However, as the intricacies of real-world phenomena evolve, there is a pressing need for more versatile probability distributions that can accurately capture a wide array of data characteristics. In response

Goodness-of-fit tests for the Gompertz distribution [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications in Statistics - Theory and Methods, 2014
AbstractWhile the Gompertz distribution is often fitted to lifespan data, testing whether the fit satisfies theoretical criteria is being neglected. Here four goodness-of-fit measures – the Anderson–Darling statistic, the correlation coefficient test, a statistic using moments, and a nested test against the generalized extreme value distributions – are

A New Gompertz Distribution for Modeling Tensile Strength of Carbon Fibers and Single Carbon Fibers Data

open access: yesMathematics
The Gompertz distribution is a well-known lifetime model in survival and reliability analysis, but its hazard rate is restricted to monotone increasing behavior, which limits its applicability to more complex data structures.

Some general Gompertz and Gompertz-Makeham life expectancy models

open access: yesAnalele Stiintifice ale Universitatii Ovidius Constanta: Seria Matematica, 2022
Life expectancy models are highly important, as they indicate the populations health. The present models consider several types of factors, and by analyzing them we extend the formulae to new, mixed types in order to create particular representations ...

Multidimensional unipolar IRT and applications to the measurement of print exposure

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Item response theory (IRT) has been a prominent modelling framework in educational and psychological measurement. Traditional IRT models are bipolar, commonly assuming symmetric measurement link functions and symmetric trait distributions over a latent continuum unbounded at both ends. However, many measured constructs, such as print exposure,

An Iterated Local Search Algorithm for Estimating the Parameters of the Gamma/Gompertz Distribution

open access: yesModelling and Simulation in Engineering, 2014
Extensive research has been devoted to the estimation of the parameters of frequently used distributions. However, little attention has been paid to estimation of parameters of Gamma/Gompertz distribution, which is often encountered in customer lifetime ...

Depicting the Immunological Landscape of Basal Cell Carcinoma Subtypes

open access: yesJournal of Cutaneous Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Anti‐PD‐1 response has been associated with higher PD‐1 ligand (PD‐L1) expression levels in different cancer types. Cemiplimab, an anti‐PD‐1 antibody, has been shown to induce a response rate of 31% and 22% in patients with locally advanced basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and metastatic BCC respectively, who have progressed or are ...
