Epidemiological evidence supports an association between exposure to air pollution during pregnancy and birth and child health outcomes. Typically, such associations are estimated by regressing an outcome on daily or weekly measures of expo...
Incorporating historic information to further improve power when conducting Bayesian information borrowing in basket trials [0.03%]
结合历史信息以进一步提高在篮子试验中进行贝叶斯信息借力时的效力

In basket trials a single therapeutic treatment is tested on several patient populations simultaneously, each of which forming a basket, where patients across all baskets on the trial share a common genetic aberration. These trials allow te...
Addressing the mean-variance relationship in spatially resolved transcriptomics data with spoon [0.03%]
利用spoon解决空间分辨转录组学数据中的均值方差关系

An important task in the analysis of spatially resolved transcriptomics (SRT) data is to identify spatially variable genes (SVGs), or genes that vary in a 2D space. Current approaches rank SVGs based on either $ P $-values or an effect size...
Identification and estimation of causal effects with confounders missing not at random [0.03%]
混杂变量缺失情况下的因果效应的识别与估计

Making causal inferences from observational studies can be challenging when confounders are missing not at random. In such cases, identifying causal effects is often not guaranteed. Motivated by a real example, we consider a treatment-indep...
Biomarker-assisted reporting in nutritional epidemiology: addressing measurement error in exposure-disease associations [0.03%]
营养流行病学中的生物标志物辅助报告:解决暴露-疾病关联中的测量误差问题
