Increased Risk of Sarcomas in Children With Congenital Anomalies: Findings From the Genetic Overlap Between Anomalies and Cancer in Kids (GOBACK) Registry Linkage Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric sarcomas are a heterogeneous group of tumors that contribute disproportionately to cancer mortality in children. Although congenital anomalies are among the strongest known risk factors for childhood cancer, the risk of specific sarcoma subtypes among affected individuals has not yet been thoroughly evaluated.

The Code Underneath

open access: yesAxioms
An inverse-square probability mass function (PMF) is at the Newcomb–Benford law (NBL)’s root and ultimately at the origin of positional notation and conformality. PrZ=2Z−2, where Z∈Z+.

Supporting Survivor‐Centered Care Through Digital Health Integration

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Survivors of childhood cancer face barriers to receiving guideline‐based, long‐term follow‐up care. Two digital tools, Passport for Care (PFC) and Cancer SurvivorLink (SurvivorLink), address complementary gaps by enabling tailored survivorship care plan (SCP) generation, updating, storage, and sharing.

tscount: An R Package for Analysis of Count Time Series Following Generalized Linear Models

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Software, 2017
The R package tscount provides likelihood-based estimation methods for analysis and modeling of count time series following generalized linear models. This is a flexible class of models which can describe serial correlation in a parsimonious way.

Therapeutic Apheresis for Intravenous Methylprednisolone‐Refractory Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder: Clinical and Radiological Outcomes in a Single‐Center Case Series

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a relapsing autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. High‐dose intravenous methylprednisolone (IVMP) is the standard first‐line therapy for acute attacks, although some patients remain refractory.

Predictive Likelihood

open access: yesThe Annals of Statistics, 1979
The likelihood function is the common basis of all parametric inference. However, with the exception of an ad hoc definition by Fisher, there has been no such unifying basis for prediction of future events, given past observations. This article proposes a definition of predictive likelihood which can help to remove some nonuniqueness problems in ...

Neural Likelihood

open access: yes2019 Conference on Cognitive Computational Neuroscience, 2019
A large body of evidence shows that perceptual decision making in humans and animals accounts for uncertainty in the relevant stimulus variable. This suggests that the decision is based on a distribution over stimuli given the neuronal activity rather than single point estimates.

Pseudo-Likelihood Estimation for Incomplete Data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In statistical practice, incomplete measurement sequences are the rule rather than the exception. Fortunately, in a large variety of settings, the stochastic mechanism governing the incompleteness can be ignored without hampering inferences about the ...

Likelihood-free inference in high dimensions with synthetic likelihood

open access: yes, 2018
One popular approach to likelihood-free inference is the synthetic likelihood method, which assumes that some data summary statistics which are informative about model parameters are approximately Gaussian for each value of the parameter.

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.
