Therapeutic 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.

On the Distribution of the Likelihood Ratio
The Annals of Mathematical Statistics, 1956 In an investigation of the distribution of the likelihood ratio $\lambda$, Wilks [3] proved, under certain regularity conditions, that $-2 \ln \lambda$ is, except for terms of order $1/\sqrt n$, distributed like $\chi^2$ with $k - m$ degrees of freedom, where $k$ is the dimension of the parameter space $\Omega$ of admissible hypotheses and $m$ is the ...

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients
Therapeutic 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.

On the Distribution of the Likelihood Ratio
The Annals of Mathematical Statistics, 1954 A classical result due to Wilks [1] on the distribution of the likelihood ratio $\lambda$ is the following. Under suitable regularity conditions, if the hypothesis that a parameter $\theta$ lies on an $r$-dimensional hyperplane of $k$-dimensional space is true, the distribution of $-2 \log \lambda$ is asymptotically that of $\chi^2$ with $k - r ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Consistency and asymptotic normality of the maximum likelihood estimator in a zero-inflated generalized Poisson regression [PDF]
, 2005 Poisson regression models for count variables have been utilized in many applications. However, in many problems overdispersion and zero-inflation occur.
