A Return to Normality: A Descriptive Qualitative Interview Study Exploring the Patient Experience of Gout Flare Resolution

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Although the definition of a gout flare is well established, the state of gout flare resolution has not yet been defined. This study aimed to explore patients’ experiences and perceptions of gout flare resolution. Methods Semistructured interviews were conducted with 24 people with gout, guided by open‐ended questions exploring their ...

Simulation Based Estimation for Generalized Latent Linear Variables Models

open access: yes, 2012
Generalized Linear Latent Variables Models (GLLVM) constitute a broad class of models that offer a general framework for modeling relationships between manifest and latent variables, as the manifest variables can follow any distribution of the ...

Employment Trajectories of Patients With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Factors Driving Transitions Between States

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) significantly impacts employment capacity. This study aimed to investigate the impact of burden of disease activity, damage, and treatment on employment outcomes and transitions in patients with SLE. Methods Using data from a single center, we analyzed employment transitions, adjusted mean disease activity ...

Effective Dimensions of Hierarchical Latent Class Models

open access: yesJournal of Artificial Intelligence Research, 2004
Hierarchical latent class (HLC) models are tree-structured Bayesian networks where leaf nodes are observed while internal nodes are latent. There are no theoretically well justified model selection criteria for HLC models in particular and Bayesian networks with latent nodes in general.

Estimating nonparametric mixed logit models via EM algorithm [PDF]

open access: yes
The aim of this paper is to describe a Stata routine for the nonparametric estimation of mixed logit models using a Expectation-Maximisation algorithm. We also compare the performance of our estimator with respect to more typical parametric mixed logit ...

The Development of Rheumatoid Arthritis–Specific Ambulatory Care–Sensitive Conditions: Results of a Consensus Process

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Ambulatory care–sensitive conditions (ACSCs) serve as indicators of access, quality, and performance of the health system. This study aimed to determine rheumatoid arthritis (RA)‐specific ACSCs for use in the evaluation of care system access and quality.

Enhanced measurement equations for latent class choice models [PDF]

open access: yes
Integrating psychometric indicators in latent class choice models allows to enhance the characterization of the latent classes. In this research, we consider measurement equations that include socio-economic indicators of the decision-makers.
