Optimal Designs and Inspection Time Decisions for Gamma Accelerated Degradation Tests

Naval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study analytically derives optimal designs for gamma accelerated degradation tests while incorporating inspection time as a design variable under both D‐ and V‐optimality criteria. Under D‐optimality, we prove that the optimal design allocates test units exclusively to the lowest and highest stress levels and adopts the longest inspection

Piecewise structural equation modelling in ecology: common pitfalls and best practices for causal inference

Oikos, EarlyView.
Structural equation modelling (SEM) has become a cornerstone tool in ecology for testing hypotheses about causal relationships and disentangling direct and indirect effects. However, its growing use has led to frequent conceptual and methodological misapplications.

A recipe for recovery: diet as a decisive tool in species conservation

Oikos, EarlyView.
Animals consume foods in specific quantities and ratios to meet a multi‐dimensional nutrient target that maximizes their fitness. Attempts to reach this target in an ever‐changing nutritional landscape often influence animal foraging behavior, habitat choice, and food‐web interactions. Consequently, understanding the nutritional ecology of a species is

Intranasal diamorphine population pharmacokinetics modeling and simulation in pediatric breakthrough pain

CPT: Pharmacometrics &Systems Pharmacology, Volume 14, Issue 3, Page 435-447, March 2025.
Abstract Intranasal diamorphine (IND), approved for managing breakthrough pain in the UK, has been identified as an acceptable alternative offering effective, expedient, and less traumatic analgesia for children. However, the current dose regimen in pediatric populations relies on clinical expertise while the pharmacokinetics properties are poorly ...
