A generalization of the negative binomial distribution

Journal of Biostatistics and Epidemiology, 2017
Background & Aim: Consider a sequence of independent Bernoulli trials with p denoting the probability of success at each trial. With this definition, the probability that the nth success proceed by r failures follows the negative binomial distribution ...

On Some Stationary INAR(1) Processes with Compound Poisson Distributions

Revstat Statistical Journal, 2023
Aly and Bouzar ([2]) used the backward approach in presence of the binomial thinning operator to construct underdispersed stationary first-order autoregressive integer valued (INAR (1)) processes.

Dealing with varying detection probability, unequal sample sizes and clumped distributions in count data

, 2012
Temporal variation in the detectability of a species can bias estimates of relative abundance if not handled correctly. For example, when effort varies in space and/or time it becomes necessary to take variation in detectability into account when data ...

Mycophenolate Mofetil Treatment Reduces the Risk of Treatment Escalation Due to Vascular Complications in Limited Cutaneous Systemic Sclerosis: Emulation of a Target Trial From the Italian Rheumatology Society SPRING Registry

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) use in limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis (lcSSc) is relatively uncommon because of the lower fibrotic burden and the predominance of vascular complications. In vitro observations and clinical data from transplanted patients suggest a protective effect of MMF on endothelial function.

Stochastic Orders Comparisons of Negative Binomial Distribution with Negative Binomial—Lindley Distribution

Open Journal of Statistics, 2012
The purpose of this study is to compare a negative binomial distribution with a negative binomial—Lindley by using stochastic orders. We characterize the comparisons in usual stochastic order, likelihood ratio order, convex order, expectation order and uniformly more variable order based on theorem and some numerical example of comparisons between ...

New Onset of Fibromyalgia After Exposure to a Combat Environment: A Longitudinal Cohort Study

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Traumatic life events are hypothesized to be triggers for the onset of fibromyalgia. Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a common comorbidity of fibromyalgia. However, limited prospective data are available on the development of fibromyalgia after exposure to high‐magnitude stress.

Size-Biased Generalized Negative Binomial Distribution

, 2008
A size biased generalized negative binomial distribution (SBGNBD) is defined and a recurrence relationship for the moments of SBGNBD is established. The Bayes’ estimator for a parametric function of one parameter when two other parameters of a known size-

Developing and Evaluating a Laboratory‐Based Frailty Index for the Prediction of Long‐Term Health Outcomes in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We aimed to construct and evaluate the first laboratory‐based frailty index (FI‐Lab) for predicting adverse outcomes in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and to compare its predictive ability to that of an existing clinical FI. Methods We used data from a single‐center prospective cohort of adult patients with SLE whose baseline visit ...
