Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of roxarestat versus recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO) in the management of renal anemia in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis. Methods This was a prospective, open‐label, randomized controlled trial.

Asymptotics for sieve estimators of hazard rates: estimating hazard functionals [PDF]
, 2015 This paper derives asymptotics for functionals of a hazard model with an exposure-time effect and time-varying covariates. A semi-nonparametric sieve maximum likelihood estimator of a competing risks model based on the Cox proportional hazard is considered. Consistency of the estimator and its rate of convergence in the Fisher norm are derived.

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients
Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

Linear and Quadratic Functionals of RandomHazard rates: an Asymptotic Analysis [PDF]
A popular Bayesian nonparametric approach to survival analysis consists in modeling hazard rates as kernel mixtures driven by a completely random measure.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Bloodstream infections due to repeated vascular access (VA) puncture and circuit connections remain major concerns in hemodialysis. Therefore, we examined current practices for glove, disinfectant, and personal protective equipment (PPE) use according to VA type in national university hospitals in Japan.

Application of a simple nonparametric conditional quantile function estimator in unemployment duration analysis [PDF]
We consider an extension of conventional univariate Kaplan-Meier type estimators for the hazard rate and the survivor function to multivariate censored data with a censored random regressor.

Organoids in pediatric cancer research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Two Weighted Distributions Generated by Exponential Distribution
Journal of Mathematical Extension, 2015 In this paper, we propose new classes of weighted distributions by incorporating exponential distribution in Azzalini’s method. Resulting weighted models generated by exponential distribution are: the weighted gamma-exponential model and the weighted ...

The Odd Gamma Weibull-Geometric Model: Theory and Applications
Mathematics, 2019 In this paper, we study a new four-parameter distribution called the odd gamma Weibull-geometric distribution. Having the qualities suggested by its name, the new distribution is a special member of the odd-gamma-G family of distributions, defined with ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.
