Under the semi-parametric linear regression model Y=β′X+W with right-censored data, Buckley-James estimator (BJE) of parameter β (∈ℛp) is standard extension least squares (LSE). Since original definition BJE may not exist, James and Smith (Citation1984) proposed a modification which has been implemented in an R package. However, this algorithm fail to yield estimate. Thus, it long open problem regarding existence BJE. In article, we show that as defined literature always exists if p = 1. If...
Abstract Background and objectives The optimal iron hypothesis (OIH) posits that risk for infection is lowest at a mild level of deficiency. extent to which this protection results from arms race dynamics in the evolution acquisition sequestration mechanisms unclear. We evaluated OIH with regard severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), an emerging infectious agent. Methodology tested 304 healthcare workers baseline deficiency (zinc protoporphyrin:heme), anemia...
