Estimators Proposed by Geometric Mean, Harmonic Mean and Quadratic Mean [PDF]
In the studies in literature up to date arithmetic population mean of auxiliary variable is used to obtain the proportional estimators. In this paper geometric mean, harmonic mean and quadratic mean is used as well as arithmetic population mean. Using geometric mean, harmonic mean and quadratic mean do not affect the variance of ratio estimator ...

Stage‐Dependent β‐Synuclein Links MRI and Cognitive Decline in Alzheimer's Disease
ABSTRACT Objective Synaptic degeneration drives cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease (AD), but synaptic biomarkers are scarce. Brain‐enriched β‐synuclein emerged as a synaptic damage marker. We investigated its diagnostic, prognostic, and structural correlates across the AD continuum.

Testing Taylor’s Law in Urban Population Dynamics Worldwide with Simultaneous Equation Models
Knowledge of long-term population trends is still incomplete at the global scale. In this perspective, human and animal ecology has intensively studied the relationship between the Mean (M) size and the Variance (V) of specific attributes of ...

Discordance Between Patient and Physician Global Assessments in Early Systemic Sclerosis
Objective This study aims to identify factors associated with patient global assessment (PtGA) and physician global assessment (PhGA) and discordance between them in systemic sclerosis (SSc). Methods Data from adults with early SSc (<5 years) from the Collaborative National Quality and Efficacy Registry were included.

A Bayesian Two-Sided Tests on the Mean of the Lognormal Distribution with Known Precision and Quadratic Utilities [PDF]
We are concerned in this article on the problem of deciding whether the mean of the lognormal distribution, μL falls in a certain finite interval ( μL(1),μL(2)) say. Two forms of utility functions were considered and sensitivity analysis carried out.

Objective Studies of damage accrual in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) show associations with disease activity measured by the SLE Disease Activity Index 2000 (SLEDAI‐2K), but these associations are imperfect. SLEDAI scores are powerfully influenced by weightings (1–8) assigned to each domain.
