The Lognormal Distribution Is Characterized by Its Integer Moments

Mathematics
The lognormal moment sequence is considered. Using the fractional moments technique, it is first proved that the lognormal has the largest differential entropy among the infinite positively supported probability densities with the same lognormal-moments.

Cost‐effectiveness of DPYD genotyping prior to fluoropyrimidine‐based treatment for colorectal cancer in Wales

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Regulatory guidance in the United Kingdom advises DPYD genotyping prior to fluoropyrimidine‐based treatment. This economic evaluation estimated the costs and outcomes associated with DPYD screening prior to prescribing fluoropyrimidines for colorectal cancer in Wales and also considers additional variants to those included in ...

Population pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of canagliflozin in paediatric patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Canagliflozin was recently approved in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients ≥10 and <18 years old as a single agent dosed once daily (QD) or in a fixed‐dose combination with metformin dosed twice daily (BID). We characterize canagliflozin pharmacokinetics in paediatric patients with T2DM, compare estimated individual and simulated ...

Preconfigured, Skewed Distribution of Firing Rates in the Hippocampus and Entorhinal Cortex

Cell Reports, 2013
Despite the importance of the discharge frequency in neuronal communication, little is known about the firing-rate patterns of cortical populations. Using large-scale recordings from multiple layers of the entorhinal-hippocampal loop, we found that the ...

Monitoring pharmacodynamic and molecular drug targets in liquid biopsy: Exploratory study in liver cancer with modelling of EGFR Receptor engagement

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Liquid biopsy is minimally invasive (compared with tissue biopsy) and has previously been used to generate systems data regarding drug elimination via hepatic enzymes and transporters. This study extends quantitative assessment of systems parameters in liquid biopsy to pharmacodynamic (PD) and disease markers relevant to cancer development

On the Shifted Hybrid Log-Normal Distribution

Statistica
The log-normal distribution is widely used to model positive valued data in many areas of applied research. However, sometimes the log-normal distribution does not completely satisfy the fitting expectations in every real life situations.

Lognormal and Pareto distributions in the Internet [PDF]

Computer Communications, 2005
Numerous studies have reported long-tailed distributions for various network metrics, including file sizes, transfer times, and burst lengths. We review techniques for identifying long-tailed distributions based on a sample, propose a new technique, and apply these methods to datasets used in previous reports.

Analyzing zero‐truncated recurrent event data by stratified regression with time‐varying coefficients

Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract This article presents a strategy for conducting regression analysis of zero‐truncated recurrent event data. The research is partly motivated by a pediatric mental health care (PMHC) program based on administrative data. We are particularly interested in how the occurrence of an event depends on its past occurrences and the associated ...

Population Pharmacokinetics and Exposure‐Response Analyses to Support Cofetuzumab Pelidotin (ABBV‐647) Dose Optimization in Non‐Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Cofetuzumab pelidotin (Cofe‐P) is an anti‐protein tyrosine kinase 7 (PTK7) antibody‐drug conjugate (ADC) being investigated for the treatment of adults with PTK7‐expressing, recurrent non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The first‐in‐human (FIH) trial demonstrated tolerability of dosages ≤ 2.8 mg/kg once every 3 weeks (Q3W) and ≤ 3.2 mg/kg Q2W ...

Non‐Invasive Estimation of Systemic Drug Exposure Using Exhaled Breath Metabolomics in Humans: A Translational Proof‐of‐Concept Study

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Accurate assessment of systemic drug exposure in humans remains challenging, as conventional approaches rely on intermittent blood sampling and laboratory‐based assays that are invasive and provide limited temporal resolution. Exhaled breath contains volatile and semi‐volatile compounds arising from drug metabolism and downstream biological processes ...
