Excess of loss reinsurance under joint survival optimality [PDF]

, 2005
Explicit expressions for the probability of joint survival up to time x of the cedent and the reinsurer, under an excess of loss reinsurance contract with a limiting and a retention level are obtained, under the reasonably general assumptions of any non ...

Quantile Regression with a New Exponentiated Odd Log-Logistic Weibull Distribution

Mathematics, 2023
We define a new quantile regression model based on a reparameterized exponentiated odd log-logistic Weibull distribution, and obtain some of its structural properties.

The Na+/Ca2+, K+ exchanger NCKX4 is required for efficient cone-mediated vision [PDF]

, 2017
Calcium (Ca2+) plays an important role in the function and health of neurons. In vertebrate cone photoreceptors, Ca2+ controls photoresponse sensitivity, kinetics, and light adaptation.

Functional connectivity within glioblastoma impacts overall survival [PDF]

Neuro-Oncology, 2020
Abstract Background Glioblastoma (GBM; World Health Organization grade IV) assumes a variable appearance on MRI owing to heterogeneous proliferation and infiltration of its cells. As a result, the neurovascular units responsible for functional connectivity (FC) may exist within gross tumor boundaries,

Kinase-independent function of RIP1, critical for mature T-cell survival and proliferation. [PDF]

, 2016
The death receptor, Fas, triggers apoptotic death and is essential for maintaining homeostasis in the peripheral lymphoid organs. RIP1 was originally cloned when searching for Fas-binding proteins and was later shown to associate also with the signaling ...
