Novel Genetic Risk Factor Identified for L‐Asparaginase‐Induced Pancreatitis in Pediatric Patients With Cancer

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background L‐asparaginase is a critical component in treatment protocols for pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Acute pancreatitis reactions can necessitate delays and, in some cases, discontinuation of L‐asparaginase, which compromises outcomes.

A Review of Mendelian Randomization in the Presence of Weak Instrumental Variables; Statistical Methods and Challenges

open access: yesJournal of Biostatistics and Epidemiology
The genetic variant of interest is referred to be a weak instrumental variable in Mendelian randomization If the relevance assumption is not met. By and large, a weak instrument bias occurs when there is insufficient statistical evidence to support an ...

Does Credit Influence Fertilizer Intensification in Rice Farming? Empirical Evidence from Côte D’Ivoire

open access: yesAgronomy, 2020
In Côte d’Ivoire, the use of fertilizers in rice farming still remains low. Credit constraints have been frequently reported as the main reason hampering rice farmers from reversing this situation.

Revealing the structure of land plant photosystem II: the journey from negative‐stain EM to cryo‐EM

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Advances in cryo‐EM have revealed the detailed structure of Photosystem II, a key protein complex driving photosynthesis. This review traces the journey from early low‐resolution images to high‐resolution models, highlighting how these discoveries deepen our understanding of light harvesting and energy conversion in plants.

Impact of family size on education, child labor and female labor supply

open access: yesRevista de Economía Política de Buenos Aires, 2018
This paper studies the impact of family size on education, child labor and mother’s labor market participation in Ecuador. Parent’s preferences and the sex mix of their children are exploited in an instrumental variables setting to overcome endogeneity ...

Non-Asymptotic Inference in Instrumental Variables Estimation

open access: yes, 2017
This paper presents a simple method for carrying out inference in a wide variety of possibly nonlinear IV models under weak assumptions. The method is non-asymptotic in the sense that it provides a finite sample bound on the difference between the true ...

Jackknife instrumental variables estimation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Econometrics, 1999
Two-stage-least-squares (2SLS) estimates are biased towards OLS estimates. This bias grows with the degree of over-identification and can generate highly misleading results. In this paper we propose two simple alternatives to 2SLS and limited-information-maximum-likelihood (LIML) estimators for models with more instruments than endogenous regressors.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS 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.

Estimation with many instrumental variables [PDF]

open access: yes
Using many valid instrumental variables has the potential to improve efficiency but makes the usual inference procedures inaccurate. We give corrected standard errors, an extension of Bekker (1994) to nonnormal disturbances, that adjust for many ...
