Short‐Term Response to Biologic Therapy in Psoriatic Arthritis Is Not Influenced by Disease Duration at Initiation of Therapy

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We aimed to determine whether the short‐term response to biologics in biologic‐naive psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is better in patients initiating biologic treatment early in the disease course. Methods Patients with PsA who started on biologic therapy from the year 2000 to 2025 were included for analysis.

Beyond Visual Scoring: Computational Computed Tomography Analysis for High‐Resolution Computed Tomography–Based Quantification of Interstitial Lung Disease in Inflammatory Rheumatic Disease

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with inflammatory rheumatic disorders (IRDs). High‐resolution computed tomography (HRCT) is widely considered the gold standard for the noninvasive assessment of ILD; however, its interpretation is constrained by substantial interobserver variability and the ...

The Several Dimensional Gambler's Ruin Problem

open access: yes, 2016
We consider the simple random walk on the $N$-dimensional integer lattice from the perspective of evaluating asymptotically the duration of play in the multidimensional gambler\apost s ruin problem. We show that, under suitable rescalings, all $p$-moments of exit-times from balls in the $L$-infinity metric, and all $p$-moments of partial-maxima values ...

Validation of Patient‐Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Pediatric Measures for Children With Chronic Nonbacterial Osteomyelitis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective To assess the validity of the Patient‐Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Pediatric measures in patients with chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis (CNO). Methods Within the longitudinal patient registry of CNO, English‐speaking patients aged 8 years and older self‐reported PROMIS Pediatric measures of fatigue, pain ...

An estimate for the ruin probability in a model with variable premiums and with investments in a bond and several stocks [PDF]

open access: yesTheory of Probability and Mathematical Statistics, 2008
We consider a risk process generalizing the classical Cramer-Lundberg process. The feature of the process is that its price function depends on the current reserve of an insurance company as well as on its portfolio consisting of a riskless bond and a finite number of risky assets, modeled by geometric Brownian motions.

Self‐Sintering Ionogel Binder for Flexible, Recyclable, and Healable Printed Giant Magnetoresistive Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Electronic waste has emerged as a major environmental challenge, driven by the massive consumption and a limited lifetime of modern electronic devices, stimulating the development of sustainable electronics. Here, an all‐biomaterial gelatin‐choline‐citric acid ([Ch][CA]) ionogel is developed as an active binder to realize self‐sintered ...

Optimal policies for discrete time risk processes with a Markov chain investment model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We consider a discrete risk process modelled by a Markov Decision Process. The surplus could be invested in stock market assets. We adopt a realistic point of view and we let the investment return process to be statistically dependent over time.

Calculating multivariate ruin probabilities via Gaver–Stehfest inversion technique. [PDF]

open access: yes
Multivariate characteristics of risk processes are of high interest to academic actuaries. In such models, the probability of ruin is obtained not only by considering initial reserves u but also the severity of ruin y and the surplus before ruin x.
