Although in cancer research microarray gene profiling studies have been successful identifying genetic variants predisposing to the development and progression of cancer, identified markers from analysis single datasets often suffer low reproducibility. Among multiple possible causes, most important one is small sample size hence lack power studies. Integrative jointly considers heterogeneous studies, has a significantly larger size, can improve In this article, we focus on prognosis where...

Penalization has been extensively adopted for variable selection in regression. In some applications, covariates have natural grouping structures, where those the same group correlated measurements or related functions. Under such settings, should be conducted at both group-level and within-group-level, that is, a bi-level selection. this study, we propose adaptive sparse Lasso (adSGL) method, which combines (GL) to achieve It can viewed as an improved version of (SGL) uses data-dependent...

Background and Aims Little is known about whether low serum HBsAg levels result from impaired synthesis or a reduced number of hepatocytes caused by advanced liver fibrosis. Therefore, we investigated the capacity for in cross-sectional cohort treatment-naïve chronic hepatitis B patients. Methods Chronic patients (n = 362) were enrolled; biopsies performed histology was scored, HBV DNA investigated. In enrolled patients, 183 out 362 have quantitative levels. Tissue determined...

ABSTRACTWe empirically examine the risk-return trade-off in a liberalized emerging stock market: Vietnam during period 2007–2014. We find that (1) neither realized idiosyncratic volatility nor conditional has been priced; (2) rational multifactor models could well explain portfolio returns; (3) there is flat trend for equal-weighted (IVOL), but downward market volatility. Our results indicate risk plays an unimportant role pricing stocks and systematic risks still dominate asset returns...

A survey on health insurance was conducted in July and August of 2011 three major cities China. In this study, we analyze the household coverage rate, which is an important index quality insurance. The rate restricted to unit interval [0, 1], it may differ from other data that "two corners" are nonzero. That is, there nonzero probabilities zero full coverage. Such also be encountered economics, finance, medicine, many areas. existing approaches not able properly accommodate such data....
