Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
Insulin sensitivity (euglycemic clamp, insulin infusion rate: 40 mU · m−2 · min−1) was studied in 30 subjects with biopsy-proven nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), normal...
Bayesian Inference of Species Trees from Multilocus Data
Until recently, it has been common practice for a phylogenetic analysis to use a single gene sequence from a single individual organism as a proxy for an entire species. With te...
Evaluation of a soluble tetrazolium/formazan assay for cell growth and drug sensitivity in culture using human and other tumor cell lines.
We have previously described the application of an automated microculture tetrazolium assay (MTA) involving dimethyl sulfoxide solubilization of cellular-generated 3-(4,5-dimeth...
Harmonized guidelines for single-laboratory validation of methods of analysis (IUPAC Technical Report)
Abstract Method validation is one of the measures universally recognized as a necessary part of a comprehensive system of quality assurance in analytical chemistry. In the past,...
Clinical findings in a group of patients infected with the 2019 novel coronavirus (SARS-Cov-2) outside of Wuhan, China: retrospective case series
Abstract Objective To study the clinical characteristics of patients in Zhejiang province, China, infected with the 2019 severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-Co...
How to Use a Monte Carlo Study to Decide on Sample Size and Determine Power
Abstract A common question asked by researchers is, "What sample size do I need for my study?" Over the years, several rules of thumb have been proposed. In reality there is no ...
College sophomores in the laboratory: Influences of a narrow data base on social psychology's view of human nature.
For the 2 decades prior to 1960, published research in social psychology was based on a wide variety of subjects and research sites. Content analyses show that since then such r...
Latent Space Approaches to Social Network Analysis
Network models are widely used to represent relational information among interacting units. In studies of social networks, recent emphasis has been placed on random graph models...
Bayesian Phylogeography Finds Its Roots
As a key factor in endemic and epidemic dynamics, the geographical distribution of viruses has been frequently interpreted in the light of their genetic histories. Unfortunately...
AWTY (are we there yet?): a system for graphical exploration of MCMC convergence in Bayesian phylogenetics
Abstract Summary: A key element to a successful Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) inference is the programming and run performance of the Markov chain. However, the explicit use o...
Power, Equity and Commitment in Exchange Networks
Exchange theory has the virtue of bringing both power and equity together in a single analytic framework. However, exchange theory has focused largely upon analysis of the dyad,...
