The Asymmetric Laplace Gaussian (ALG) Distribution as the Descriptive Model for the Internal Proactive Inhibition in the Standard Stop Signal Task

Brain Sciences, 2022
Measurements of response inhibition components of reactive inhibition and proactive inhibition within the stop-signal paradigm have been of particular interest to researchers since the 1980s.

Coding of odors in the anterior olfactory nucleus

Physiological Reports, 2019
Odorant molecules stimulate olfactory receptor neurons, and axons of these neurons project into the main olfactory bulb where they synapse onto mitral and tufted cells.

Probabilistic framework for assessing risks to structures stemming from accidental explosions

Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2002
In the paper, an attempt is made to formulate a probabilistic framework for an assessment of risk to structures resulting from accidental vapour cloud explosions (VCEs).

A Two-Stage Estimation Approach to Cox Regression Under the Five-Parameter Spline Model

Mathematics
The Cox proportional hazards model is one of the most popular regression models for censored survival data. In the Cox model, the baseline hazard function is often modeled by cubic spline functions.

Instantaneous death risk, conditional survival and optimal surgery timing in cervical fracture patients with ankylosing spondylitis: A national multicentre retrospective study

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
BackgroundThe mortality rate in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and cervical fracture is relatively high.ObjectivesThis study aimed to investigate the instantaneous death risk and conditional survival (CS) in patients with AS and cervical ...

AVERAGE DERIVATIVES FOR HAZARD FUNCTIONS

Econometric Theory, 2004
Summary: This paper develops semiparametric kernel-based estimators of risk-specific hazard functions for competing risks data. Both discrete and continuous failure times are considered. The maintained assumption is that the hazard function depends on explanatory variables only through an index.

Bridging the Loneliness Gap: Depression, Connectivity, and Isolation in Pediatric Oncology Patients and Their Peers

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Loneliness is associated with adverse physical and mental health outcomes and remains understudied in children and adolescents undergoing cancer therapy. Pediatric oncology patients may be at increased risk due to medical isolation and disruption of social networks.

Use of Hazard Functions for Determining Power-Law Behaviour in Data

Analytics
Determining the ‘best-fitting’ distribution for data is an important problem in data analysis. Specifically, observing how the distribution of data changes as values below (or above) a threshold are omitted from analyses can be of use in various ...

Early Body Mass Index z‐Score Change and Resolution of Severe Malnutrition in Children With Sickle Cell Anemia in a Low‐Income Setting: A Prospective Single‐Arm Extension Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) in low‐income settings are at risk of severe malnutrition, but optimal nutritional management has not been established. We evaluated an intensified ready‐to‐use therapeutic food (RUTF) regimen in children with persistent severe malnutrition after initial treatment and assessed whether early ...

Central Nervous System Tumors Among Infants in Canada: A Report From CYP‐C

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) tumors in infants are rare, pose unique clinical challenges, and lack large‐scale evidence‐based data to guide management. This study seeks to describe CNS tumors in Canadian infants and to compare their outcomes with those of older children.
