Hospitalization Through Families’ Eyes: Comparing Inpatient Care Quality for Children With Sickle Cell Disease and Cystic Fibrosis in Canada

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a chronic, inherited hemoglobinopathy that requires frequent hospitalization for disease‐related complications. Canadian data on inpatient care is limited. This study compared caregiver‐reported hospital experiences of children with SCD to those with cystic fibrosis (CF), a chronic, autosomal recessive ...

Apparent survival rates of forest birds in eastern Ecuador revisited: improvement in precision but no change in estimates. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Knowledge of survival rates of Neotropical landbirds remains limited, with estimates of apparent survival available from relatively few sites and species. Previously, capture-mark-recapture models were used to estimate apparent survival of 31 species (30

Standardizing estimates of the Plasmodium falciparum parasite rate [PDF]

Malaria Journal, 2007
معدل طفيليات المتصورة المنجلية (PfPR) هو مؤشر شائع لشدة انتقال الملاريا. يرتفع PfPR بعد الولادة إلى هضبة قبل أن ينخفض في الأطفال الأكبر سنًا والبالغين. تشير الدراسات التي أجريت على السكان ذوي الفئات العمرية المختلفة بشكل عام إلى متوسط PfPR، لذلك يعد العمر مصدرًا مهمًا لعدم التجانس في بيانات PfPR المبلغ عنها.

Venous Thromboembolism in Pediatric Bone Sarcoma Patients: A 10‐Year, Single‐Institution Experience Encompassing the COVID‐19 Pandemic

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Osteosarcoma (OS) and Ewing sarcoma (EWS) are the most common primary bone cancers in children, but acute thrombosis is poorly characterized in this population. Our study evaluated the rates of venous thromboembolism (VTE) and associated risk factors in pediatric patients with bone sarcomas treated over a 10‐year period encompassing

Estimation of Surface Area and Volume of a Nematode from Morphometric Data

Scientifica, 2016
Nematode volume and surface area are usually based on the inappropriate assumption that the animal is cylindrical. While nematodes are approximately circular in cross section, the radius varies longitudinally.

Estimation of the Distribution Function of a Standardized Statistic

Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 1997
Summary For estimating the distribution of a standardized statistic, the bootstrap estimate is known to be local asymptotic minimax. Various computational techniques have been developed to improve on the simulation efficiency of uniform resampling, the standard Monte Carlo approach to approximating the bootstrap estimate.

Indian GDP, 1600-1871 : some preliminary estimates and a comparison with Britain. [PDF]

, 2010
This paper provides estimates of Indian GDP constructed from the output side for the period 1600-1871, and combines them with population estimates to track changes in living standards. Indian per capita GDP declined steadily.
