Race and Household Income are Associated with Disease Outcomes in Pediatric Patients with ANCA‐associated Vasculitis Hospitalized in the United States

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objectives Race and household income impact outcomes in patients with rheumatic conditions; however, their role in pediatric anti‐neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)‐associated vasculitis (AAV) remains poorly understood. We aimed to evaluate whether race/ethnicity and household income are associated with severe AAV disease and renal outcomes among ...

Testing the New Keynesian Phillips Curve Without Assuming Identification [PDF]

We re-examine the evidence on the new Phillips curve model of Gali and Gertler (Journal of Monetary Economics 1999) using the conditional score test of Kleibergen (Econometrica 2005), which is robust to weak identification. In contrast to earlier studies,

A semiparametric quantile regression rank score test for zero-inflated data

Biometrics
ABSTRACT Zero-inflated data commonly arise in various fields, including economics, healthcare, and environmental sciences, where measurements frequently include an excess of zeros due to structural or sampling mechanisms. Traditional approaches, such as Zero-Inflated Poisson and Zero-Inflated Negative Binomial models, have been widely ...

Additive Gaussian Process Regression for Predictive Design of High‐Performance, Printable Silicones

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A chemistry‐aware design framework for tuning printable polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) for vat photopolymerization (VPP) is developed using additive Gaussian process (GP) modeling. Polymer network mechanics informs variable groupings, feasible formulation constraints, and interaction variables.

The impact of teacher attitudes and beliefs about large-scale assessment on the use of provincial data for instructional change

Education Policy Analysis Archives, 2016
In the quest to improve measured educational outcomes national governments across the OECD and beyond have instituted large-scale assessment (LSA) policies in their public schools. Controversy almost universally follows the implementation of such testing,

TDP-43 loss-of-function causes neuronal loss due to defective steroid receptor-mediated gene program switching in Drosophila [PDF]

, 2013
TDP-43 proteinopathy is strongly implicated in the pathogenesis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and related neurodegenerative disorders. Whether TDP-43 neurotoxicity is caused by a novel toxic gain-of-function mechanism of the aggregates or by a loss of

Texoskeletons: Developing the Fundamental Technologies for Creating Intelligent Soft Robotic Clothing With Integrated 1D Sensors and Actuators

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Traditional wearable exoskeletons rely on rigid structures, which limit comfort, flexibility, and everyday usability. This work introduces the fundamental technologies to create the first soft, lightweight, intelligent textile‐based exoskeletons (Texoskeletons) built using 1D sensors and actuators.
