Exploring the dependability of Combined Ratio Estimators in Stratified Ranked Set Sampling: Insights from COVID-19 data

Alexandria Engineering Journal
In this study, we introduce a novel combined ratio type estimator within the framework of Stratified Ranked Set Sampling to estimate the population mean of the study variable by incorporating bivariate auxiliary information.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Induced Ranked Set Sampling when Units are Inducted from Several Populations

Statistica, 2018
The method of ranked set sampling when units are to be inducted from several bivariate populations is introduced in this work. The best linear unbiased estimation of a common parameter of two bivariate Pareto distributions is discussed based on the n ...

ABL kinase‐dependent phosphorylation of SH proteins promotes their direct interaction with CRK family SH2 domains

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
CT10 regulator of kinase (CRK) and CRK‐Like (CRKL) are signaling adaptors driving cell adhesion, motility, differentiation, and proliferation. SH2‐domain containing (SH) proteins are enriched in YXXP motifs which when phosphorylated create preferred binding sites for CRK family SH2 domains.

A Refinement of Ratio Estimation in Ranked Set Sampling and Stratified Ranked Set Sampling Approaches

VFAST Transactions on Mathematics
Estimation of population mean is a persistent subject issue in sampling surveys and many discrete efforts have been paid by various researchers to enhance the precision of the estimates by utilizing the correlated auxiliary information. In connection with this an improved version of ratio estimator are presented in this paper under the ranked set ...

On Regression Estimators Using Extreme Ranked Set Samples

Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science, 2004
Regression is used to estimate the population mean of the response variable, , in the two cases where the population mean of the concomitant (auxiliary) variable, , is known and where it is unknown. In the latter case, a double sampling method is used to

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Hypothesis tests on the scale parameter using median ranked set sampling

Statistica, 2008
In this paper, some test procedures for scale parameters of exponential and rectangular distributions involving the median ranked set sampling (MRSS) method are discussed. The necessary tables for the critical regions for the suggested tests are supplied.

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.

Composite Estimators for the Population Mean Under Ranked Set Sampling

Mathematics
Ranked Set Sampling (RSS) is an effective sampling technique, particularly when precise measurement of the study variable is costly or time-consuming, but ranking the units is relatively easy.
