A Spatial Unit Level Model for Small Area Estimation

open access: yesRevstat Statistical Journal, 2011
This paper approaches the problem of small area estimation in the framework of spatially correlated data. We propose a class of estimators allowing the integration of sample information of a spatial nature.

An Empirical Evaluation of Small Area Estimators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
This paper investigates the comparative performance of five small area estimators. We use Monte Carlo simulation in the context of both theoretical and empirical populations. In addition to the direct and indirect estimators, we consider the optimal composite estimator with population weights, and two composite estimators with estimated weights: One ...

Forecasting the Dialysis Burden in Japan: Validation‐Based Projections of Prevalence and Incidence Through 2050

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Japan has one of the highest dialysis prevalence rates worldwide and a shrinking, aging population. Whether dialysis burden has entered a sustained post‐peak phase or whether recent declines partly reflect pandemic‐related disruptions remains uncertain.

Multipurpose small area estimation

open access: yes, 2006
Sample surveys are generally multivariate, in the sense that they measure more than oneresponse variable. In theory, each variable can then be assigned an optimal weight forestimation purposes.

Estimating Tehsil’s Poverty Ranking in the Province of Punjab from District-Level Survey Data Using Regression Synthetic Estimation

open access: yesİstanbul İktisat Dergisi
Limited number of observations hamper poverty estimation in smaller areas, rendering national surveys nonrepresentative. National surveys in Pakistan lack adequate sample sizes to generate statistically valid estimates at levels beyond the division and ...

Association Between Individualized Education for Kidney Replacement Therapy Modality Selection and Peritoneal Dialysis Initiation: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an established home‐based kidney replacement therapy (KRT), but its uptake remains low in Japan. We evaluated whether individualized education in a dedicated outpatient clinic was associated with the initiation of PD.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

On Accuracy of Calibration Estimators Supported by Auxiliary Variables from Past Periods Based on Simulation Analyses

open access: yesActa Universitatis Lodziensis. Folia Oeconomica, 2017
In sample surveys there is often a need to estimate not only population characteristics, but subpopulation characteristics as well. We consider the problem of estimating the total value in domains (subpopulations).

The human gut microbiome across the life course

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

PENERAPAN METODE PENDUGAAN AREA KECIL (SMALL AREA ESTIMATION) PADA PENENTUAN PROPORSI RUMAH TANGGA MISKIN DI KABUPATEN KLUNGKUNG

open access: yesE-Jurnal Matematika, 2013
Small area is an area with insufficient sample for direct estimation. Limited survey objects, cause direct estimation can not produce better parameter estimates.
