Comparison of Effect Size Measures for Mediation Analysis of Survival Outcomes with Application to the Framingham Heart Study [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 There is an increasing trend of research in mediation analysis for survival outcomes. Such analyses help researchers to better understand how exposure affects disease outcomes through mediators. However, due to censored observations in survival outcomes, it is not straightforward to extend mediation analysis from linear models to survival outcomes.

Nephrology, 2020 Patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) are increasingly being used in nephrology care. However, in contrast to well‐known clinical measures such as blood pressure, health‐care professionals are less familiar with PROMs and the interpretation of PROM ...

Micro-meso-macro practice tensions in using patient-reported outcome and experience measures in hospital palliative care [PDF]
, 2018 This article applies a micro-meso-macro analytical framework to understand clinicians’ experiences and perspectives of using patient-reported outcome and experience measures (PROMs and PREMs) in routine hospital-based palliative care.

A comparative study of circulating tumor cell isolation and enumeration technologies in lung cancer
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Lung cancer cells were spiked into donor blood to evaluate the recovery rates of the following circulating tumor cell (CTC) enrichment technologies: CellMag™, EasySep™, RosetteSep™, Parsortix® PR1, and Parsortix® Prototype systems. Each method's advantages and disadvantages are described.

Discrete realization of group symmetric LOCC-detection of maximally entangled state [PDF]
arXiv, 2008 Group symmetric LOCC measurement for detecting maximally entangled state is considered. Usually, this type measurement has continuous-valued outcomes. However, any realizable measurement has finite-valued outcomes. This paper proposes discrete realizations of such a group symmetric LOCC measurement.

Quantum Theory and the Limits of Objectivity [PDF]
, 2018 Three recent arguments seek to show that the universal applicability of unitary quantum theory is inconsistent with the assumption that a well-conducted measurement always has a definite physical outcome. In this paper I restate and analyze these arguments.

Cell‐free and extracellular vesicle microRNAs with clinical utility for solid tumors
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Cell‐free microRNAs (cfmiRs) are small‐RNA circulating molecules detectable in almost all body biofluids. Innovative technologies have improved the application of cfmiRs to oncology, with a focus on clinical needs for different solid tumors, but with emphasis on diagnosis, prognosis, cancer recurrence, as well as treatment monitoring.

Realization of continuous-outcome measurements on finite dimensional quantum systems [PDF]
arXiv, 2007 This note contains the complete mathematical proof of the main Theorem of the paper "How continuous measurements in finite dimension are actually discrete" (quant-ph/0702068), thus showing that in finite dimension any measurement with continuous set of outcomes can be simply realized by randomizing some classical parameter and conditionally performing ...
