Recanting Twins: Addressing Intermediate Confounding in Mediation Analysis

Statistics in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 3-5, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The presence of intermediate confounders, also called recanting witnesses, is a fundamental challenge to the investigation of causal mechanisms in mediation analysis, preventing the identification of natural path‐specific effects. Common alternatives (such as randomizational interventional effects) are problematic because they can take non ...

Introducing an efficient model for the prediction of placenta accreta spectrum using the MCP regression approach based on sonography indexes: how efficient is sonography in diagnosing accreta?

BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth, 2020
Background For the first time, we aimed to introduce a model for prediction of placenta accreta spectrum (PAS), using existing sonography indices. Methods Women with a history of Cesarean sections were included.

Asymptotically minimax empirical Bayes estimation of a sparse normal mean vector

, 2014
For the important classical problem of inference on a sparse high-dimensional normal mean vector, we propose a novel empirical Bayes model that admits a posterior distribution with desirable properties under mild conditions.

A Chebyshev Polynomial‐Based Wind Speed Profile Characterization Framework: Applications in Mesoscale Model Evaluation

Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT This study presents a polynomial‐based wind speed profile characterization framework that approximates full vertical profiles using five physically meaningful Chebyshev polynomial coefficients. The framework captures key morphological features of wind profiles, including mean wind speed, vertical shear, curvature, inflection‐related behavior ...

Counting submodules of a module over a noetherian commutative ring

, 2019
We count the number of submodules of an arbitrary module over a countable noetherian commutative ring. We give, along the way, a structural description of meager modules, which are defined as those that do not have the square of a simple module as ...

Proton stereotactic body radiotherapy for early‐stage non‐small cell lung cancer: Influence of case‐specific characteristics on dosimetric robustness

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Background and purpose Proton stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) offers superior dose conformity. However, its clinical application remains limited due to uncertainties from setup errors and respiratory motion. This study quantified the dosimetric robustness of proton SBRT for early‐stage non‐small cell lung cancer under combined setup and ...

Doppler-controlled microsurgical subinguinal varicocelectomy: a single centre experience

Вестник урологии
Introduction. Injury to the testicular artery during microsurgical subinguinal varicocelectomy (MSV) results in testicular atrophy in 20 – 40% of cases. The use of techniques that improve visualization of the testicular artery could increase the efficacy
