Financial Distress and Its Determinants in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective To quantify the degree of financial distress and identify its determinants in adults with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) given the frequent prolonged use of expensive disease‐modifying therapies. Methods We identified adults enrolled in the FORWARD databank with either RA or noninflammatory musculoskeletal disease (NIMSKD) completing the ...

Testing a Personalized Approach to Chronic Low Back Pain: A Randomized Controlled Trial in Older Veterans

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We aimed to test the efficacy of personalized treatment of older veterans with chronic low back pain (CLBP) delivered by Aging Back Clinics (ABCs) as compared with usual care (UC). Methods Two hundred ninety‐nine veterans aged 65 to 89 with CLBP from three Veterans Affairs (VA) medical centers underwent baseline testing, randomization to ABC ...

Clinical Conditions Associated With a High Antinuclear Antibody Titer in Individuals Without Autoimmune Disease

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Antinuclear antibodies (ANAs) are present at high titers in 2% of the general population, but their clinical significance in individuals without an autoimmune (AI) disease is not known. We tested the hypothesis that the presence of a high ANA titer in non‐AI conditions is associated with disease.

The Renal Activity Index for Lupus Identifies Active Renal Disease and Treatment Response in Adult Patients With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Lupus Nephritis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We evaluated the ability of the Renal Activity Index for Lupus (RAIL) to discriminate active lupus nephritis (LN) in adult patients with active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and differentiate LN treatment response. Methods Urine samples from adults with biopsy‐proven active class III and IV LN from TULIP‐LN (active LN group ...

Performance Characteristics of Anti–Collagen II Antibodies in Relapsing Polychondritis and Related Diseases: Prospective Analysis, Systematic Review, and Meta‐Analysis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Relapsing polychondritis (RP) is a rare disease defined by recurrent cartilaginous inflammation. Anti–collagen II (Col2) antibodies have been proposed as a diagnostic biomarker for RP, but their performance characteristics are not well defined.

Robust Estimation Through Estimating Equations

Biometrika, 1984
The paper deals with the choice of parameter definition. It develops the concepts of parameter defining function and effective parameter. It also provides theory and techniques for choosing from a given set of robust parameters the one that can most efficiently be estimated. This theory is applied to location parameters.

Robust pose estimation

IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man and Cybernetics, Part B (Cybernetics), 1999
Standard least-squares (LS) methods for pose estimation of objects are sensitive to outliers which can occur due to mismatches. Even a single mismatch can severely distort the estimated pose. This paper describes a least-median of squares (LMedS) approach to estimating pose using point matches.

Robust m-estimators

Econometric Reviews, 1990
This paper provides a summary of the influence function approach to robust estimation of parametric models. Hampel's optimality results for M-estimators with a bounded influence function is generalized to allow for arbitrary choices of the asymptotic efficiency criterion and the norm of the influence function.
