Summary To assess the cost‐effectiveness of blinatumomab plus chemotherapy for paediatric patients from Hong Kong public healthcare provider's perspective, a 10‐year Markov model was designed to simulate outcomes in paediatric patients with newly diagnosed standard‐risk B‐cell ALL at: (1) average risk and (2) high risk of relapse.

Improving lognormal models for cosmological fields
It is common practice in cosmology to model large-scale structure observables as lognormal random fields, and this approach has been successfully applied in the past to the matter density and weak lensing convergence fields separately. We argue that this

Summary Haemoglobin SC (HbSC) disease is the second most prevalent form of sickle cell disease, but evidence for hydroxyurea (hydroxycarbamide; HU) to prevent pain episodes was limited until the prospective identification of variables as outcomes for treatment (PIVOT) trial.

Some results on Denault's capital allocation rule. [PDF]
Denault (2001) introduces a capital allocation principle where the capital allocated to any risk unit is expressed in terms of the contribution of that risk to the aggregate conditional tail expectation. Panjer (2002) derives a closed-form expression for

IRT‐based response style models and related methodology: Review and commentary
Abstract We provide a review and commentary on recent methodological research related to item response theory (IRT) modelling of response styles in psychological measurement. Our review describes the different categories of IRT models that have been proposed, their associated assumptions and extensions, and the varying purposes they can serve.

Multidimensional unipolar IRT and applications to the measurement of print exposure
Abstract Item response theory (IRT) has been a prominent modelling framework in educational and psychological measurement. Traditional IRT models are bipolar, commonly assuming symmetric measurement link functions and symmetric trait distributions over a latent continuum unbounded at both ends. However, many measured constructs, such as print exposure,
