Dependent competing risks: Bounds for net survival functions with fixed crude survival functions

open access: yesEnvironment International, 1978
Abstract Using the formulation of latent failure times, the problem of inference on survival time in the presence of competing risks is discussed. Even for the simplified problem where dose and other covariates are fixed, it is not well known that the distributions of the latent failure times are not identifiable from the usual competing risks data ...

Survival as a Function of Life Expectancy [PDF]

open access: yes
It is well known that life expectancy can be expressed as an integral of the survival curve. The reverse - that the survival function can be expressed as an integral of life expectancy - is also true.force of mortality, life expectancy, life table ...

Increased Survival and Function of Mesenchymal Stem Cell Spheroids Entrapped in Instructive Alginate Hydrogels

open access: yesStem Cells Translational Medicine, 2016
Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)‐based therapies are under broad investigation for applications in tissue repair but suffer from poor cell persistence and engraftment upon transplantation.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Survival and function after left ventricular aneurysmectomy

open access: yesThe Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1975
Operative and late postoperative results in 55 patients undergoing resection of a discrete, saccular type left ventricular aneurysm are described. All patients had occlusive lesions of either the left anterior descending or left main coronary artery, and 72 per cent had significant multivessel disease. Preoperative factors that correlated significantly

The newfound relationship between extrachromosomal DNAs and excised signal circles

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) contribute to the progression of many human cancers. In addition, circular DNA by‐products of V(D)J recombination, excised signal circles (ESCs), have roles in cancer progression but have largely been overlooked. In this Review, we explore the roles of ecDNAs and ESCs in cancer development, and highlight why these ...

Cross-validation and Peeling Strategies for Survival Bump Hunting using Recursive Peeling Methods

open access: yes, 2015
We introduce a framework to build a survival/risk bump hunting model with a censored time-to-event response. Our Survival Bump Hunting (SBH) method is based on a recursive peeling procedure that uses a specific survival peeling criterion derived from non/

In situ molecular organization and heterogeneity of the Legionella Dot/Icm T4SS

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present a nearly complete in situ model of the Legionella Dot/Icm type IV secretion system, revealing its central secretion channel and identifying new components. Using cryo‐electron tomography with AI‐based modeling, our work highlights the structure, variability, and mechanism of this complex nanomachine, advancing understanding of bacterial ...

New Lifetime Alpha Power Exponential Weibull Distribution: Structure and Properties

open access: yesIbn Al-Haitham Journal for Pure and Applied Sciences
In statistics theory, adding a new parameter is considered one of the important things that help in producing statistical distributions more flexible and appropriate in data analysis.

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.
