How to Control for Many Covariates? Reliable Estimators Based on the Propensity Score [PDF]
We investigate the finite sample properties of a large number of estimators for the average treatment effect on the treated that are suitable when adjustment for observable covariates is required, like inverse probability weighting, kernel and other ...

Bayesian Nonparametric Weighted Sampling Inference
, 2015 It has historically been a challenge to perform Bayesian inference in a design-based survey context. The present paper develops a Bayesian model for sampling inference in the presence of inverse-probability weights.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Controlling the protein corona formation onto carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) enhances their functionalities as platforms for cancer theranostics. Here, we reviewed the effects of the intrinsic and acquired properties of CNMs on protein corona formation, the consequent biological and toxicological outcomes, and the strategies to reshape corona formation ...

Efficacy Studies of Malaria Treatments in Africa: Efficient Estimation with Missing Indicators of Failure [PDF]
, 2005 Efficacy studies of malaria treatments can be plagued by indeterminate outcomes for some patients. The study motivating this paper defines the outcome of interest (treatment failure) as recrudescence and for some subjects, it is unclear whether a ...

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.The energetic offset between the donor and the acceptor components in organic photoactive layers is central to the tradeoff between photovoltage and photocurrent losses. This Perspective covers the most important issues surrounding this topic in non‐fullerene acceptor blends, from the difficulty of accurately determining state energies and driving ...

Reconstruction of potential energy profiles from multiple rupture time distributions
, 2010 We explore the mathematical and numerical aspects of reconstructing a potential energy profile of a molecular bond from its rupture time distribution.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.An Aloe‐pinspired droplet electricity generator (A‐DEG) overcomes the limited energy collection zone of conventional DEGs by guiding impact droplets through a channeling midrib and artificial cuticle. The channeling midrib induces uni‐directional droplet spreading, while the artificial cuticle on the midrib further reinforces this behavior through its ...

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular DiseaseBackground Both diabetes and low magnesium‐containing food intake may increase the risk of heart failure (HF). However, the effect of nonprescription magnesium supplements on the risk of HF or major adverse cardiac events in patients with diabetes is ...

Direct Mode‐Resolved Measurement of Interfacial Phonon Transport by Acoustic Phonon Reflectometry
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.We introduce a novel analysis, acoustic phonon reflectometry, that measures the mode‐resolved phonon reflection coefficient at semiconductor interfaces. In aluminum nitride, we observe excellent agreement with the acoustic mismatch model across three distinct interfaces.
