ABSTRACT Background Weighting methods are widely used for confounding adjustment in observational studies, but their finite‐sample behavior depends on implementation choices and empirical overlap. We compare IPTW, just‐ and over‐identified covariate balancing propensity score (CBPS), CBPS by tailored‐loss function (CBPS‐TLF), energy balancing (EB), and

Group cognitive behavioural therapy for postnatal depression : a systematic review of clinical effectiveness, cost effectiveness and value of information analyses [PDF]
Background: Postnatal depression (PND) describes a wide range of distressing symptoms that can occur in women following childbirth. There is substantial evidence to support the use of cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) in the treatment of depression, and

Outage probability analysis of uplink heterogeneous non-terrestrial networks: a novel stochastic geometry model [PDF]
In harsh environments such as mountainous terrain, dense vegetation areas, or urban landscapes, a single type of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) may encounter challenges like flight restrictions, difficulty in task execution, or increased risk. Therefore,

Towards a new method for evaluating large-scale maternal health programmes: measuring implementation strength of focused antenatal care and emergency obstetric care in Tanzania [PDF]
Measuring the strength of public health programmes may reveal whether and how some programmes have an impact on target populations and others do not. Programme implementation strength (also known as programme intensity) refers to quantitative measure ...

The origin of the Hox and ParaHox loci and animal homeobox evolution [PDF]
The homeobox superfamily is one of the most significant gene families in the evolution of developmental processes in animals. Within this superfamily the ANTP class has expanded exclusively in animals and, therefore, the reconstruction of its origin ...
