Rules of Blood Sampling and Storage for Laboratory Studies
Objective: to review and to systematize the recommendations on reducing the incidence of defects occurring with a sample of blood after its sampling in the preanalytical phase and the impact of these shifts on the correct interpretation of a patient ...

Why sampling ratio matters: Logistic regression and studies of habitat use. [PDF]
Logistic regression (LR) models are among the most frequently used statistical tools in ecology. With LR one can infer if a species' habitat use is related to environmental factors and estimate the probability of species occurrence based on the values of

We study the thermodynamic behavior of a simple off-lattice model for protein folding. The model is two-dimensional and has two different ``amino acids''. Using numerical simulations of all chains containing eight or ten monomers, we examine the sequence

ABSTRACT Introduction Adolescent siblings of children with cancer are at elevated risk for psychosocial problems. Unfortunately, various barriers such as limited family time and resources, conflicting schedules, and psychosocial staffing constraints at cancer centers hinder sibling access to support.

Handbook of field sampling for multi-taxon biodiversity studies in European forests
Forests host most terrestrial biodiversity and their sustainable management is crucial to halt biodiversity loss. Although scientific evidence indicates that sustainable forest management (SFM) should be assessed by monitoring multi-taxon biodiversity ...

Graphical Models for Inference Under Outcome-Dependent Sampling
We consider situations where data have been collected such that the sampling depends on the outcome of interest and possibly further covariates, as for instance in case-control studies.

ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

Analysis of Crowdsourced Sampling Strategies for HodgeRank with Sparse Random Graphs
Crowdsourcing platforms are now extensively used for conducting subjective pairwise comparison studies. In this setting, a pairwise comparison dataset is typically gathered via random sampling, either \emph{with} or \emph{without} replacement.

Sampling Technique for Larvae of the Alfalfa Snout Beetle, \u3ci\u3eOtiorhynchus Ligustici\u3c/i\u3e (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) [PDF]
This paper presents a sampling procedure for estimating larval populations of the alfalfa snout beetle, Otiorhynchus ligustici. The method is based on counts of the larvae taken in 16 x 16 cm quadrats of soil during early fall when the grubs are in their
