Evolutionary morphology of the haplorhine hamate

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Primates adopt a variety of hand postures during an impressive diversity of locomotor and manipulative behaviors. Morphological research has found that elements of the hand skeleton, such as the hamate, hold key information for inferring hand use and locomotor kinematics in extinct species.

Subspace‐Based System Identification From Binary Measurements

Asian Journal of Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper is concerned with subspace identification from binary measurements for systems whose dynamical behavior can be splited into a deterministic and a stochastic subsystem. An identification algorithm is detailed. The main contribution of the proposed identification algorithm lies in the identification of both the deterministic subsystem

Cost‐utility analysis of nusinersen–risdiplam switch in patients with spinal muscular atrophy in Croatia: A discrete event simulation model

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Introduction In recent years, the treatment of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a rare disease, has significantly progressed, improving patients' survival and overall quality of life. However, current SMA treatments are expensive, and some (nusinersen) are very inconvenient for patients.

Efficacy, safety and cost‐effectiveness of CAR‐T therapy

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
CAR T‐cells demonstrate high efficacy in blood cancers, including ALL, MM and DLBCL. Innovations target solid tumours despite challenges such as antigen escape. Combination therapies enhance the delivery and infiltration of CAR T cells. Toxicity, cost and resistance remain major barriers to clinical use.

Testing the Unbiased Forward Exchange Rate Hypothesis Using a Markov Switching Model and Instrumental Variables [PDF]

, 2003
This paper develops a model for the forward and spot exchange rate which allows for the presence of a Markov switching risk premium in the forward market and considers the issue of testing for the unbiased forward exchange rate (UFER) hypothesis. Using

Adaptive imatinib regimens can mitigate cumulative toxicity while sustaining hemodynamic benefit: A model‐based simulation of the positioning imatinib for pulmonary arterial hypertension trial

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Imatinib improves hemodynamics in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), but dose‐dependent toxicity has limited its clinical development. We aimed to quantify the dose–efficacy–toxicity relationship and evaluate alternative dosing strategies using data from the PIPAH trial.

Economic evaluations of antiobesity medications: A systematic literature review

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The global prevalence of obesity is rising rapidly. With several antiobesity medications approved and many more in development, understanding their economic value is increasingly important. This study reviews full economic evaluations of approved antiobesity medications to assess cost‐effectiveness and inform reimbursement and access decisions.

Long‐term cost‐effectiveness of belatacept vs. tacrolimus in kidney transplantation: Trade‐off between metabolic benefit and immunological risk

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims This study aimed to evaluate the long‐term cost‐effectiveness of belatacept vs. tacrolimus as maintenance immunosuppression in adult kidney transplant recipients, focusing on the trade‐off between reduced new‐onset diabetes after transplantation (NODAT), immunological risk and potential renal benefit.

Breaking point: Identifying the factors that predict suspension from school

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract School suspensions are associated with adverse educational and psychosocial outcomes, yet little is known about how structural disadvantage, relational factors, health behaviours, well‐being indicators and school‐level factors jointly predict suspension risk in England.

Granger-causality in Markov Switching Models [PDF]

In this paper we propose a new parametrisation of transition probabilities that allows us to characterize and test Granger-causality in Markov switching models by means of an appropriate specification of the transition matrix.
