Inference in high-dimensional set-identified affine models
, 2019 This paper proposes both point-wise and uniform confidence sets (CS) for an element $\theta_{1}$ of a parameter vector $\theta\in\mathbb{R}^{d}$ that is partially identified by affine moment equality and inequality conditions.

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.Objectives To quantify the association between skeletal muscle echo intensity (MEI), measured by ultrasound, and clinical markers of insulin resistance and glycemic control, and evaluate MEI's diagnostic accuracy in identifying insulin resistance. Methods In this cross‐sectional study, 20 adults with obesity (mean body mass index [BMI] 34.4 ± 2.6 kg/m2,

Quality of Life Impact of Velopharyngeal Insufficiency: The Role of Social Determinants of Health
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.This study examined the association between social determinants of health and caregiver‐reported quality of life in children with velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI). Higher socioeconomic status was associated with improved VELO scores, whereas more favorable health/environmental conditions correlated with worse outcomes.

Inference on Income Inequality and Tax Progressivity Indices: U-Statistics and Bootstrap Methods [PDF]
This paper discusses asymptotic and bootstrap inference methods for a set of inequality and progressivity indices. The application of non-degenerate U-statistics theory is described, particularly through the derivation of the Suits-progressivity index ...

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In the present investigation, a mathematical model with vaccination, treatment, and environmental impact under real data is presented. Initially, we present the model without any interventions, followed by an examination of its equilibrium points.

Public Administration and Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The persistence of participatory budgeting (PB) in selected Chinese localities challenges the conventional wisdom that deliberative democratic practices can only take root in liberal political environments. Yet, existing literature has not sufficiently elucidated the factors underpinning the rise and sustained operation of PB in this seemingly
