Adjuvanting an inactivated influenza vaccine with flagellin improves the function and quantity of the long-term antibody response in a nonhuman primate neonate model

Beth C. Holbrook, +3 more
- 07 Sep 2016 - 
TL;DR: The results support the use of flagellin in neonates as an adjuvant that promotes long-lived, high affinity antibody responses that result in long term immune responses in Neonates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Research Pearls: The Significance of Statistics and Perils of Pooling. Part 2: Predictive Modeling.

Erik Hohmann, +2 more
- 01 Jul 2017 - 
TL;DR: The focus of predictive modeling or predictive analytics is to use statistical techniques to predict outcomes and/or the results of an intervention or observation for patients that are conditional on a specific set of measurements taken on the patients prior to the outcomes occurring.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pioglitazone-Mediated Changes in Lipoprotein Particle Composition Are Predicted by Changes in Adiponectin Level in Type 2 Diabetes

Susan Sam, +5 more
- 01 Jan 2012 - 
TL;DR: Increased adiponectin contributed to treatment-related benefit in lipoprotein cardiovascular disease risk factors in obese diabetic subjects treated with pioglitazone, and this results provide support for a model that mechanistically links changes in adiponECTin level to changes inlipoprotein composition in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI

International Validation of the Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) Risk Score for Secondary Prevention in Post-MI Patients: A Collaborative Analysis of the Chronic Kidney Disease Prognosis Consortium and the Risk Validation Scientific Committee.

Yejin Mok, +17 more
- 17 Jul 2018 - 
TL;DR: TRS2°P, a simple scoring system with 9 routine clinical factors, was modestly predictive of secondary events when applied in patients with recent myocardial infarction from diverse clinical and geographic settings.
Journal ArticleDOI

Robustness of Location Estimators under Changes of Population Kurtosis

Ralph B. D'Agostino, +1 more
- 01 Jun 1977 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the robustness of various estimators of the mean for two families of symmetric distributions (exponential power and t) indexed by the kurtosis γ and Hogg's (1972) measure of tail thickness Q was investigated.
