Bivariate Copula-Based Regression for Joint Modeling of Healthcare Visits. [PDF]

Health Econ
ABSTRACT Doctor and non‐doctor visit frequencies are key indicators of healthcare access, utilization and individual health‐seeking behavior. While doctor visits reflect engagement with formal medical services, non‐doctor visits, such as to nurses, physiotherapists or alternative providers, offer insights into patient preferences and system ...

Bipolar Disorder as a Long‐Term Risk Factor for Parkinson's Disease: A Nationwide Case–Control Study

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Previous studies suggest an association between bipolar disorder (BD) and an increased risk of Parkinson's disease (PD), but the long‐term temporal relationship remains unclear. Particularly, it is unclear whether the risk of PD is influenced by the duration since BD diagnosis.

Management and visualization of whole genome shotgun assemblies using SAM

BioTechniques, 2005
We have designed and implemented a system to manage whole genome shotgun sequences and whole genome sequence assembly dataflow. The Sequence Assembly Manager (SAM) consists primarily of a MySQL relational database and Perl applications designed to easily

Monitoring the effects of ovariectomy on seasonal movement behavior in suburban female white‐tailed deer using internet of things‐enabled devices

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Abundant deer populations often cause conflicts in suburban communities, yet traditional population reduction methods, such as controlled hunting, can be challenging to implement. Fertility control, specifically through ovariectomy, can limit reproduction and reduce populations in certain settings, but its effect on movement behavior remains poorly ...

A prospective study of hearing changes after beginning zidovudine or didanosine in HIV-1 treatment-naïve people

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2006
Background While hearing loss in HIV-infected people after beginning nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) has been reported, there have been no prospective studies that measured hearing changes longitudinally in treatment-naïve HIV ...

Spatial overlap and temporal synchrony between guilds of insect hosts and parasitoids

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study identified a spatial overlap between insect host guild richness and parasitoid richness. Species richness in parasitoid guilds always increased later in the season than richness of their host guilds. These findings suggest that shifts in climate and land‐use may alter the synchrony of insect trophic layers.

CloudSat-Based Assessment of GPM Microwave Imager Snowfall Observation Capabilities

Remote Sensing, 2017
The sensitivity of Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) Microwave Imager (GMI) high-frequency channels to snowfall at higher latitudes (around 60°N/S) is investigated using coincident CloudSat observations. The 166 GHz channel is highlighted throughout

Universities, ‘Left Behind Places’ and the Making of a Moral Crisis

The Political Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Britain's universities face an acute financial and moral crisis. Once celebrated as engines of the knowledge economy and social mobility, they are now viewed increasingly with suspicion—criticised as elitist, self‐serving and detached from public needs.

OccuGAMs: Non‐linear occupancy and abundance modelling with imperfect detection

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Hierarchical occupancy and abundance models (HOAMs) have become a leading approach for inferring wildlife population dynamics because they explicitly account for imperfect detection. HOAMs are suitable for sampling approaches that produce detection histories from repeated visits to the same sites, including direct observations (e.g. bird point

Audit Committee Networks and Audit Fees: A European Analysis

Accounting &Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the association between audit committee member networks and audit fees in a sample of 225 publicly traded firms from eight European countries between 2005 and 2020. Using social network analysis, we find that director interconnections—established through overlapping board memberships—are associated with audit fees.
