(2018-12-28)
Importance: Cerebral palsy (CP) is considered a pediatric condition despite most individuals with CP living into adulthood. Thus, there is a lack of evidence in adults with CP, which includes a paucity of research examining ...
Mortality due to cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease, and cancer in adults with cerebral palsy.
(2019-02-06)
AIM: To compare mortality rates for cardiovascular disease, cancer, and respiratory disease between adults with cerebral palsy (CP) and the general population. METHOD: A cohort study was conducted using data from adults ...
Multidimensional analysis of the effect of occupational exposure to organic solvents on lung cancer risk: the ICARE study
(BMJ, 2016-06)
Background: The association between lung cancer and occupational exposure to organic solvents is discussed. Since different solvents are often used simultaneously, it is difficult to assess the role of individual ...
Sampling from Dirichlet process mixture models with unknown concentration parameter: mixing issues in large data implementations
(Springer, 2015-09)
We consider the question of Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling from a general stick-breaking Dirichlet process mixture model, with concentration parameter α . This paper introduces a Gibbs sampling algorithm that combines ...
Modelling collinear and spatially correlated data.
(2016-08)
In this work we present a statistical approach to distinguish and interpret the complex relationship between several predictors and a response variable at the small area level, in the presence of (i) high correlation between ...
