The use of the Tobit model for analyzing measures of health status.

TL;DR: A Monte-Carlo simulation study was carried out to contrast the performance of the Tobit model for censored data with that of ordinary least squares (OLS) regression, and it was demonstrated that in the presence of a ceiling effect, if the conditional distribution of the measure of health status had uniform variance, then the coefficient estimates from the tobit model have superior performance compared with estimates from OLS regression.

An evaluation of the statistical methods for testing the performance of crop models with observed data

TL;DR: In this paper, a case study of the statistical evaluation was conducted for the DSSAT Cropping System Model (CSM) using 10 experimental datasets for maize, peanut, soybean, wheat and potato from Brazil, China, Ghana, and the USA.

Potential role for a guanine nucleotide regulatory protein in chemoattractant receptor mediated polyphosphoinositide metabolism, Ca++ mobilization and cellular responses by leukocytes

TL;DR: It is proposed that this complex of receptor-guanine nucleotide regulatory protein-phospholipase C may be applicable to the class of receptors which mobilize intracellular Ca++ by stimulating polyphosphoinositide breakdown.

Chylomicron remnant cholesteryl esters as the major constituent of very low density lipoproteins in plasma of cholesterol-fed rabbits.

TL;DR: Analysis of cholesteryl ester specific activity-time curves for the very low density lipoproteins subfraction from hypercholesterolemic plasma showed that nearly all esterified cholesterol in large very lowdensity lipoproteinins and approximately 30% of esterify cholesterol in small very lowensity lipopoteins was derived from chylomicron degradation.

Pneumonectomy for malignant disease: factors affecting early morbidity and mortality.

TL;DR: Multiple factors adversely affected morbidity and mortality after pneumonectomy for malignant disease are analyzed and Appropriate selection and meticulous perioperative care are paramount to minimize risks.
