NONPARAMETRIC ANALYSIS OF COST MINIMIZATION AND EFFICIENCY [PDF]

open access: yes
This study examines cost minimizing behavior and efficiency measures for a sample of Kansas wheat producers, using nonparametric methods. As such, it verifies the applicability of nonparametrics within a production economic framework.nonparametrics, WACM,

Nonparametric estimation of diffusion process: a closer look [PDF]

open access: yes
A Monte Carlo simulation is performed to investigate the finite sample properties of a nonparametric estimator, based on discretely sampled observations of continuous-time Ito diffusion process. Chapman and Pearson (2000) studies finite-sample properties

Comparative Meta‐Analysis of Antimicrobial Peptides in Aquatic and Terrestrial Livestock Species

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
A global meta‐analysis of 58 studies (926 effect sizes and 29 species across five taxa) revealed that dietary antimicrobial peptides generally improve growth performance, blood metabolites, and immune responses. The greatest benefits were observed in omnivorous livestock, such as pigs and chickens. Dose‐duration effects were evident. An optimal outcome

Modeling collective rationality : an nonparametric test on experimental data. [PDF]

open access: yes
We provide a .first nonparametric (revealed preference) test of the collective consumption model on the basis of experimental data. By using nonparametric testing tools and experimental data, we avoid the usual problems associated with parametric tests ...

Effects of Dietary Mannan Oligosaccharides on Growth, Disease Resistance, and Gut Microbiota in Zebrafish

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Supplementation with mannan oligosaccharides (MOS) enhances growth, disease resistance, antioxidant capacity, and gut microbiota diversity while suppressing inflammation, apoptosis, and strengthening intestinal barrier integrity in zebrafish challenged with LPS or DSS.

Patients 40 Years of Age or Older Have Comparable Return to Sport Rates, Reinjury Rates, and 2‐Year Patient‐Reported Outcomes After Medial or Lateral Meniscus Repair Compared With Patients Younger Than 40 Years of Age

open access: yesArthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To compare patient‐reported outcomes, return to sport (RTS), and reinjury rates after meniscus repair in patients over and under the age of 40 years old. Methods Meniscus repair cases performed at a single tertiary care center between December 2010 and August 2021 with a minimum 2‐year follow‐up data were reviewed.
