Assessing a Mitochondrial Disease Treatment via a Novel Statistical Technique for Accelerometer Data
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Therapeutic development for mitochondrial diseases, rare genetic disorders with pathogenic defects of oxidative phosphorylation, is hindered by unsatisfactory outcome measures. To address this problem, we provide the first clinical application of a novel, bias‐adjusted outcome measure of acceleration across a range of subjects ...

Weak Identification in Fuzzy Regression Discontinuity Designs [PDF]
Journal of Business & Economic Statistics, 2010 In fuzzy regression discontinuity (FRD) designs, the treatment effect is identified through a discontinuity in the conditional probability of treatment assignment. We show that when identification is weak (i.e., when the discontinuity is of a small magnitude), the usual t-test based on the FRD estimator and its standard error suffers from asymptotic ...
