AIP Conference Proceedings, 2019 AbstractThe Inverse Box-Cox (BC) transformation (see [1]) produces the Power Normal (PN) distribution family that includes the log-normal and the normal distributions, see [2], [4] and [3]. The Box-Cox power transformation aims to transform data to approximate normality (truncated normal (TN)) therefore the knowledge of the its inverse scale is of ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Claudin‐6 has emerged as a promising immunotherapeutic target, yet protein‐level data in atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumors (AT/RTs) have been inconsistent. We analyzed 36 well‐characterized AT/RT samples and found membranous claudin‐6 protein expression in 58% of cases, with striking enrichment in the molecular subgroup AT/RT‐TYR (100%) and ...

A Note on the Normal Distribution
The Annals of Mathematical Statistics, 1956 Let \(x_1, x_2,\ldots, x_n\) be independent and identically distributed with density \(f(x)\) and put \[ \bar x = \frac 1n \sum_{j=1}^n x_j,\quad \delta_k^2=\frac 1{2n-k} \sum_{j=1}^{n-k}(x_{j+1}-x_j)^2. \] Using results of \textit{E. Lukacs} [ Ann. Math. Stat. 13, 91--93 (1942; Zbl 0060.28509)] and \textit{J. F. Daly} [Ann. Math. Stat.

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients
Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

Modelling health scores with the skew-normal distribution [PDF]
, 2009 Health care interventions which use quality of life or health scores often provide data which are skewed and bounded. The scores are typically formed by adding up responses to a number of questions. Different questions might have different weights, but

A characterization of the normal distribution
Journal of Statistical Theory and Applications, 2014 It is shown that the normal distribution with mean zero is characterized by the property that the product of its characteristic function and moment generating function is equal to 1.
