TLDR
An ideal text for an upper-level undergraduate or first-year graduate course, Nonparametric Statistical Methods, Second Edition is also an invaluable source for professionals who want to keep abreast of the latest developments within this dynamic branch of modern statistics.Abstract:
This Second Edition of Myles Hollander and Douglas A. Wolfe's successful Nonparametric Statistical Methods meets the needs of a new generation of users, with completely up-to-date coverage of this important statistical area. Like its predecessor, the revised edition, along with its companion ftp site, aims to equip readers with the conceptual and technical skills necessary to select and apply the appropriate procedures for a given situation. An extensive array of examples drawn from actual experiments illustrates clearly how to use nonparametric approaches to handle one- or two-sample location and dispersion problems, dichotomous data, and one-way and two-way layout problems. An ideal text for an upper-level undergraduate or first-year graduate course, Nonparametric Statistical Methods, Second Edition is also an invaluable source for professionals who want to keep abreast of the latest developments within this dynamic branch of modern statistics.read more

Journal ArticleDOI
Cigarette smoke induces endoplasmic reticulum stress and the unfolded protein response in normal and malignant human lung cells
TL;DR: The data indicate that chronic ER stress and recruitment of one or more UPR effector arms upon exposure to CS may play a pivotal role in the etiology or progression of lung cancers, and that phospho-eIF2α and BiP may have diagnostic and/or therapeutic potential.
Journal ArticleDOI
Randomised comparison of amniocentesis and transabdominal and transcervical chorionic villus sampling.
TL;DR: It is found that TA CVS allows better access to the placental site than TC sampling, is an easier skill to acquire, and has the potential that more villi can be aspirated when needed, and remains the first choice for prenatal diagnosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Thirty-six women with suspected pelvic inflammatory disease were examined by laparoscopy and endometrial biopsy and therapy with clindamycin plus tobramycin produced an adequate short-term clinical response in 16 of 19 patients, although patients with severe salpingitis at laparoscope responded slowly.
Journal ArticleDOI
Eating attitudes, health-risk behaviors, self-esteem, and anxiety among adolescent females in a suburban high school.
TL;DR: The data from this study further corroborate the growing belief that health-risk behaviors tend to cluster together in vulnerable adolescents and demonstrate that abnormal eating attitudes and behaviors may be part of this cluster, especially in females with low self-esteem and high levels of anxiety.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hypothalamic/pituitary function following high-dose conformal radiotherapy to the base of skull: demonstration of a dose-effect relationship using dose-volume histogram analysis.

TL;DR: Radiation-induced damage to the HT & PG occurs frequently after high-dose PPRT to the BOS and is manifested by anterior pituitary gland dysfunction, and minimum target dose to the PG was found to be predictive of endocrinopathy.
