Integrated multi‐omics analysis reveals metabolic reprogramming as a key driver of angiotensin II‐induced vascular remodeling

VIEW, EarlyView.
This study investigates the molecular alterations underlying angiotensin II (Ang II)‐induced vascular remodeling in cardiovascular diseases using a multi‐omics approach. Through data exploration and integrated multi‐omics analysis, our findings reveal that Ang II‐driven vascular injury in vascular smooth muscle cells is mediated by metabolic ...

A Zero-Inflated Box-Cox Normal Unipolar Item Response Model for Measuring Constructs of Psychopathology [PDF]

, 2018
This research introduces a latent class item response theory (IRT) approach for modeling item response data from zero-inflated, positively skewed, and arguably unipolar constructs of psychopathology. As motivating data, the authors use 4,925 responses to

Combined Transcriptomic and Proteomic Forecast Analyses for Potential Biomarkers of Smoking‐Induced Benign and Malignant Transformation of Vocal Fold Lesions

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Laryngeal dysplasia and Reinke's edema (RE) are common vocal fold lesions associated with smoking. While the former is cancer prone, most cases of the latter do not undergo malignant transformation. Therefore, we proposed identifying biomarkers of smoking‐induced benign‐malignant transformation of vocal fold lesions.

Paving the Road for Modern Particle Therapy – What can we Learn from the experience gained with Fast Neutron Therapy in Munich?

Frontiers in Oncology, 2015
While neutron therapy was a highly topical subject in the 70’s and 80’s, today there are only a few remaining facilities offering fast neutron therapy. Nevertheless, up to today more than 30,000 patients were treated with neutron therapy.

A Bayesian Beta-Mixture Model for Nonparametric IRT (BBM-IRT)

Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods, 2018
Item response models typically assume that the item characteristic (step) curves follow a logistic or normal cumulative distribution function, which are strictly monotone functions of person test ability. Such assumptions can be overly-restrictive for real item response data.

Plasma Proteomics Analysis Identifying IGFBP2 as a Potential Diagnostic Biomarker for Laryngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Currently, there are no blood biomarkers available for the early diagnosis of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). The objective of this study was to search for potential plasma biomarkers for the diagnosis of LSCC. Methods Plasma samples were taken from patients with LSCC and healthy controls for proteomic analysis.

Measuring Teamwork Competencies Cross‐Culturally Through Computerized Adaptive Testing: Implications for Human Resource Management

Human Resource Management Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines the psychometric properties of a Computerized Adaptive Test for Measuring Teamwork Competencies (CAT‐TWC). Using item response theory and a multicultural team framework, we examine the dimensionality, precision, and measurement invariance of the measures obtained with the CAT‐TWC in a first study with participants from ...

Optimal Job Design and Information Elicitation

The RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT When managers rely on their subordinates for local information but cannot commit to how such information is used, the incentives for effort and information elicitation become intertwined. This incentive problem influences the firm's job design decision, that is, whether to assign all tasks in a job to one worker (“individual assignment”) or ...
