Direct evidence for normalization of platelet function resulting from platelet count reduction in essential thrombocythemia
(2011)Essential thrombocythemia is characterized by persistent elevation and functional disturbances of platelets. Both the platelet function analyzer-100 (PFA-100) collagen-epinephrine (CEPI) cartridge and aggregometry with ...

Dynamic misspecification in nonparametric cointegrating regression
(2012)Linear cointegration is known to have the important property of invariance under temporal translation. The same property is shown not to apply for nonlinear cointegration. The limit properties of the Nadaraya-Watson (NW) ...

An ecological study of the determinants of differences in 2009 pandemic influenza mortality rates between countries in Europe
(2011)Background: Pandemic A (H1N1) 2009 mortality rates varied widely from one country to another. Our aim was to identify potential socioeconomic determinants of pandemic mortality and explain between-country variation. ...

Mixed-effects poisson regression models for meta-analysis of follow-up studies with constant or varying durations
(2009)We present a framework for meta-analysis of follow-up studies with constant or varying duration using the binary nature of the data directly. We use a generalized linear mixed model framework with the Poisson likelihood ...
