Interleukin‐18 Levels Are Associated With Disease Course in Patients With Still Disease Treated With Interleukin‐1 Inhibitors

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective To evaluate the prognostic utility of circulating interleukin‐18 (IL‐18) levels in predicting disease activity, macrophage activation syndrome (MAS), and disease course in patients with Still disease (SD) receiving first‐line IL‐1 inhibitors (IL‐1i).

Preliminary insights on high‐fidelity embalming solutions for surgical skills training—An evaluation using the McMaster Embalming Scale and mechanical tests

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Simulation‐based training is critical for surgical skill acquisition and typically uses soft‐preserved body donors, as they represent high‐fidelity models (vs. hard‐fixed donors) with prolonged periods of preservation (vs. unembalmed donors).

Newly Improved Two-Parameter Ridge Estimators: A Better Approach for Mitigating Multicollinearity in Regression Analysis

Axioms
This study tackles the common issues of multicollinearity arising in regression models due to high correlations among predictor variables, leading to unreliable coefficient estimates and inflated variances, ultimately affecting the model’s accuracy.

A Poisson Ridge Regression Estimator [PDF]

The standard statistical method for analyzing count data is the Poisson regression model, which is usually estimated using maximum likelihood (ML). The ML method is very sensitive to multicollinearity. Therefore, we present a new Poisson ridge regression

PEMODELAN UPAH MINIMUM KABUPATEN/KOTA DI JAWA TENGAH BERDASARKAN FAKTOR-FAKTOR YANG MEMPENGARUHINYA MENGGUNAKAN REGRESI RIDGE [PDF]

, 2016
The least squares method is a regression parameter estimation method for simple linear regression and multiple linear regression. This method produces no bias and variance estimator minimum if no multicollinearity.

Does Camouflaging Predict Functioning, Distress, and Quality of Life for Autistic Adults?

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT It has been proposed that autistic individuals adopt camouflaging strategies to mask their autistic traits and conform to social norms, and that these camouflaging strategies have been linked to adverse mental health outcomes. This study examined whether camouflaging, measured by the Camouflaging Autistic Traits Questionnaire (CAT‐Q ...

An Alternative Estimator for Poisson–Inverse-Gaussian Regression: The Modified Kibria–Lukman Estimator

Algorithms
Poisson regression is used to model count response variables. The method has a strict assumption that the mean and variance of the response variable are equal, while, in practice, the case of overdispersion is common.

ESTIMATING RETURNS TO AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH, EXTENSION, AND TEACHING AT THE STATE LEVEL [PDF]

The majority of decisions concerning investment and allocation of public funds for agricultural research, extension, and teaching (RET) are made at the state-level, while most of the quantitative RET evaluations are made on a national basis.

Motor Performance in Autistic Youth From Childhood Through Adolescence: Evidence for Both Sustained and Widening Group Differences

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although motor‐skill differences in autistic individuals are well established, there is diverging evidence regarding what happens to motor skills in autistic children as they become adolescents. Using both cross‐sectional and longitudinal data, we examined fine and gross motor skills and grip strength of 187 autistic participants and 136 non ...

Autism Spectrum Disorder Among Gender‐Diverse Children and Adolescents: A National Cohort Study

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is more prevalent in transgender and gender‐diverse (TGD) individuals than in the general population, yet the specific developmental pathways within and clinical outcomes of this intersection are insufficiently understood.
