Excitatory and inhibitory amino acid binding sites in human dentate nucleus
(Elsevier, 1991-09-27)
Autoradiography of excitatory and inhibitory amino acid binding sites in human dentate nuclei indicated virtually no binding to N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) or [gamma]-aminobutyric acidB (GABAB) binding sites, and a low ...
A false-discovery-rate-based loss framework for selection of interactions
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2008-05-20)
Interaction effects have been consistently found important in explaining the variation in outcomes in many scientific research fields. Yet, in practice, variable selection including interactions is complicated due to the ...
Developing multicomponent interventions using fractional factorial designs
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2009-09-20)
Multicomponent interventions composed of behavioral, delivery, or implementation factors in addition to medications are becoming increasingly common in health sciences. A natural experimental approach to developing and ...
Combining information from multiple surveys to enhance estimation of measures of health This article is a U.S. Government work and is in the public domain in the U.S.A.
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2007-04-15)
Survey estimates are often affected by non-sampling errors due to missing data, coverage error, and measurement or response error. Such non-sampling errors can be difficult to assess, and possibly correct for, using ...
Rod saturation in b-wave of the rat electroretinogram under two different anesthetics
(Elsevier, 1984)
B-wave increment threshold experiments in the rat show that "rod saturation" occurs at different background levels with different anesthetics. Rod saturation builds up over the first 60 sec of light adaptation in pentobarbital ...
Combining data from primary and ancillary surveys to assess the association between neighborhood-level characteristics and health outcomes: the Multi-Ethnic Study of Artherosclerosis
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2008-11-29)
There is increasing interest in understanding the role of neighborhood-level factors on the health of individuals. Many large-scale epidemiological studies that accurately measure health status of individuals and individual ...
Job dissatisfaction as a possible risk factor in coronary heart disease
(Elsevier, 1971-05)
The role of data in the EIS process: Evidence from the BLM wilderness review
(Elsevier, 1993-03)
Various propositions have been offered about the role of the environmental impact statement (EIS) in agency decision making. These include statements that agencies are (1) using the information collected in the EIS to make ...
On summary measures analysis of the linear mixed effects model for repeated measures when data are not missing completely at random
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 1999-09-15)
Subjects often drop out of longitudinal studies prematurely, yielding unbalanced data with unequal numbers of measures for each subject. A simple and convenient approach to analysis is to develop summary measures for each ...
A Bayesian sensitivity model for intention-to-treat analysis on binary outcomes with dropouts
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2009-02-15)
Intention-to-treat (ITT) analysis is commonly used in randomized clinical trials. However, the use of ITT analysis presents a challenge: how to deal with subjects who drop out. Here we focus on randomized trials where the ...
