Improved Direct Estimators for Small Areas [PDF]
, 2006 Unbiased direct estimators for small area quantities are usually considered too variable to be of any practical use. In this paper we propose a class of model-based direct estimators for small area quantities that appears to overcome this objection, in ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Leukemia is the most common childhood cancer in Mexico, and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most frequent subtype. Exposure to high concentrations of benzene has been associated with ALL incidence, particularly in urban areas. This study evaluated the relationship between distance to benzene emission sources and the number
