In a retrospective population‐based cohort study using the University of Manitoba IBD Epidemiology Database, persons with IBD have an increased risk of ESRD by nearly 50%, with CD showing greater risk than UC. Bowel surgery, allopurinol use and oral steroid therapy are important predictors, emphasising the necessity of careful renal monitoring in IBD ...

An Overview of New Results in Cochran–Mantel–Haenszel Testing
The Cochran–Mantel–Haenszel (CMH) methodology is a suite of tests applicable to particular tables of count data. Inference is conditional on the treatment and outcome totals on each stratum being known before sighting the data. The CMH tests are important for analyzing randomised blocks data when the responses are categorical rather than ...

Using multilabel classification neural network to detect intersectional DIF with small sample sizes
Abstract This study introduces InterDIFNet, a multilabel classification neural network for detecting intersectional differential item functioning (DIF) in educational and psychological assessments, with a focus on small sample sizes. Unlike traditional marginal DIF methods, which often fail to capture the effects of intersecting identities and require ...

Block designs that provide optimal power in the Cochran–Mantel–Haenszel test
We consider the asymptotic power performance under local alternatives of the Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test. Our setting is non-traditional: we investigate randomized experiments that assign subjects via Fisher's blocking design. We show that blocking designs that satisfy a certain balance condition are asymptotically optimal. When the potential outcomes
