The standard error of the Pearson skew [PDF]

Tutorials in Quantitative Methods for Psychology, 2015
The Pearson skew is a measure of asymmetry of a distribution, based on the difference between the mean and the median of a distribution. Here we show how to calculate the Pearson skew, estimate its standard error and the confidence interval.

MOGAD Is the Most Common Cause of Isolated Optic Neuritis in Children

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives The study aimed to characterize the clinical features, etiologies, and outcomes of isolated, first‐time pediatric ON in the post‐MOG‐IgG era. Methods This was a single‐center retrospective cohort study at Texas Children's Hospital of patients diagnosed with first‐time ON between 2018–2024, with follow‐up data collected through 2025.

Toward a kinetic-based probabilistic time geography

, 2014
Time geography represents a powerful framework for the quantitative analysis of individual movement. Time geography effectively delineates the space–time boundaries of possible individual movement by characterizing movement constraints.

Some Information Properties of Order Statistics of Skew-normal Distribution

Revstat Statistical Journal
The skew-normal distribution and some of its extensions have been considered in the last two decades in view of distribution theory and the associated properties. However, less attention has been paid to other aspects of this family of distributions. In

Marked Long‐Term Improvement in Lung Function in Melanoma Differentiation–Associated Protein 5 Antibody–Positive Dermatomyositis Patients: Experience of a Single‐Center Longitudinal Cohort in North America

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The objective of this study was to describe the longitudinal disease course and pulmonary outcomes of North American patients with melanoma differentiation–associated protein 5 (MDA5) antibody–associated dermatomyositis (DM). Methods Thirty patients with MDA5 antibody–associated DM were identified in a single‐center longitudinal cohort of 352

Multivariate Asymmetric Distributions of Copula Related Random Variables

Austrian Journal of Statistics, 2023
It is known that normal distribution plays an important role in analysing symmetric data. However, this symmetric assumption may not hold in many real word and in such cases, asymmetric distribution, including skew normal distribution, are known as ...

Developing and Evaluating a Laboratory‐Based Frailty Index for the Prediction of Long‐Term Health Outcomes in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We aimed to construct and evaluate the first laboratory‐based frailty index (FI‐Lab) for predicting adverse outcomes in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and to compare its predictive ability to that of an existing clinical FI. Methods We used data from a single‐center prospective cohort of adult patients with SLE whose baseline visit ...

Multivariate doubly truncated moments for generalized skew-elliptical distributions with applications

Mathematical and Computer Modelling of Dynamical Systems
In this paper, we focus on multivariate doubly truncated first two moments of generalized skew-elliptical distributions. This class of distributions includes many useful distributions, such as skew-normal, skew Student-[Formula: see text], skew-logistic ...

Modeling absolute differences in life expectancy with a censored skew-normal regression approach [PDF]

PeerJ, 2015
Parameter estimates from commonly used multivariable parametric survival regression models do not directly quantify differences in years of life expectancy. Gaussian linear regression models give results in terms of absolute mean differences, but are not

Rheumatoid Arthritis and Coronary Artery Calcium Progression: A Case Cohort Analysis From ELSA‐Brasil

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective To investigate the association between rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and coronary artery calcium (CAC) prevalence, incidence, and progression over four years in adults without prior cardiovascular disease. Methods A case‐cohort study within the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA‐Brasil) included 585 participants (86 patients with ...
