Confounding-Robust Policy Improvement [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
We study the problem of learning personalized decision policies from observational data while accounting for possible unobserved confounding. Previous approaches, which assume unconfoundedness, i.e., that no unobserved confounders affect both the treatment assignment as well as outcome, can lead to policies that introduce harm rather than benefit when ...

A time-resolved fluorescence immunoassay for the measurement of testosterone in saliva: Monitoring of testosterone replacement therapy with testosterone buciclate [PDF]

, 1998
Monitoring of testosterone replacement therapy requires a reliable method for testosterone measurement. Determination of salivary testosterone, which reflects the hormone's biologically active plasma fraction, is a superior technique for this purpose ...

Implantable, Label‐Free NIR‐Based Porous Silicon Biosensor for Monitoring Biomarkers in Interstitial Fluid

Advanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
Implantable biosensors hold the promise to revolutionize the way disease diagnosis and progression during treatment are viewed. However, in the current state of art, their efficiency is limited by certain material challenges. Porous Silicon (pSi) is a viable material for in vivo monitoring of biomarkers, and its potential as an implantable biosensor is
