Rheumatoid Arthritis, Frailty, and Outcomes of Surgical Hospitalizations: A National Population‐Based Analysis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Hospitalization, particularly for surgery, represents a period of heightened stress. We evaluated how frailty attenuates the association of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with negative health outcomes after elective noncardiac surgery. Methods We conducted a cross‐sectional study using the National Inpatient Sample (2018 to 2020), including adults

Observer‐Based Adaptive Event‐Triggered Tracking Control for Fuzzy TS Systems With Premise Mismatch

International Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, EarlyView.
This paper presents an adaptive logistic event‐triggered observer‐based tracking controller for Takagi‐Sugeno fuzzy systems under constrained inputs and network delays. Leveraging a hybrid LMI and Secretary Bird Optimization approach, this strategy significantly minimizes communication overhead and computational burden while ensuring optimal reference ...

An empirical comparison of methods for analyzing over-dispersed zero-inflated count data from stratified cluster randomized trials

Contemporary Clinical Trials Communications, 2020
Background: The assessment of methods for analyzing over-dispersed zero inflated count outcome has received very little or no attention in stratified cluster randomized trials. In this study, we performed sensitivity analyses to empirically compare eight

Zero-Inflated Text Data Analysis Using Imbalanced Data Sampling and Statistical Models

Computers
Text data often exhibits high sparsity and zero inflation, where a substantial proportion of entries in the document–keyword matrix are zeros. This characteristic presents challenges to traditional count-based models, which may suffer from reduced ...

Efficiency of Zero-Inflated Generalized Poisson Regression Model on Hospital Length of Stay Using Real Data and Simulation Study

Caspian Journal of Health Research, 2018
Background: An important feature of Poisson distribution is the equality of mean and variance. However, additional zeroes in the data may cause over-dispersion in most cases, in which zero-inflated models are recommended.
