Comparison of Baseline Covariate Adjustment Methods for Restricted Mean Survival Time [PDF]
The restricted mean survival time is a clinically easy-to-interpret measure that does not require any assumption of proportional hazards. We focus on two ways to directly model the survival time and adjust the covariates. One is to calculate the pseudo-survival time for each subject using leave-one-out, and then perform a model analysis using all ...

Flexible joint models for multivariate longitudinal and time-to-event data using multivariate functional principal components [PDF]
The joint modeling of multiple longitudinal biomarkers together with a time-to-event outcome is a challenging modeling task of continued scientific interest. In particular, the computational complexity of high dimensional (generalized) mixed effects models often restricts the flexibility of shared parameter joint models, even when the subject-specific ...

On strongly primary monoids, with a focus on Puiseux monoids [PDF]
Primary and strongly primary monoids and domains play a central role in the ideal and factorization theory of commutative monoids and domains. It is well-known that primary monoids satisfying the ascending chain condition on divisorial ideals (e.g., numerical monoids) are strongly primary; and the multiplicative monoid of non-zero elements of a one ...

Primary sclerosing cholangitis
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic liver condition which may affect both intra and extrahepatic biliary tree. Etiology of PSC remains to be fully elucidated but genetic, autoimmune, inflammatory and possibly infective factors could all contribute to its development.

Primary User Emulation Attacks: A Detection Technique Based on Kalman Filter [PDF]
Cognitive radio technology addresses the problem of spectrum scarcity by allowing secondary users to use the vacant spectrum bands without causing interference to the primary users. However, several attacks could disturb the normal functioning of the cognitive radio network.

Aims Atypical colitis (presenting reverse gradient colitis, backwash ileitis or rectal sparing) is associated with primary sclerosing cholangitis–ulcerative colitis (PSC). Oral vancomycin has been used to manage paediatric atypical colitis with/without confirmed PSC. Different preparations had shown different efficacy.
