Scrambling Reports: New Estimators for Estimating the Population Mean of Sensitive Variables

Mathematics, 2023
Warner proposed a methodology called randomized response techniques, which, through the random scrambling of sensitive variables, allows the non-response rate to be reduced and the response bias to be diminished. In this document, we present a randomized

Application of Randomized Response Techniques Using Dichotomous Response for Mean Wage in Czechia and Slovakia [PDF]

Statistika: Statistics and Economy Journal
Research of controversial topics (drug consumption, corruption) requires reliable estimates of population means of sensitive variables (spending on drugs, illegal sources of income). To avoid non-response and fabricated responses surveys using randomized

Evaluation of Patient-Reported Outcome Differences by Radiotherapy Techniques for Bone Metastases in A Population-Based Healthcare System

Current Oncology, 2022
We assessed whether advanced RT techniques were associated with differences in patient-reported outcomes (PROs). Patients with bone metastases who completed the brief pain inventory (BPI) before and after RT were identified, and RT technique was ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.
