This study prospectively evaluated relationship between development illness, and serum titers ex vivo cellular immune responses vaccination community dwelling older adults including those with congestive heart failure (CHF). Adults age 60 years (90 subjects), 10 healthy young adult controls received 2003-04 trivalent inactivated vaccine. Laboratory diagnosed (LDI) was...

The wide availability of high-frequency data for many financial instruments stimulates an upsurge interest in statistical research on the estimation volatility. Jump-diffusion processes observed with market microstructure noise are frequently used to model data. Yet existing methods developed either noisy from a continuous-diffusion price or jump-diffusion without noise. We propose cope both jumps and These allow us estimate integrated volatility jump variation sampled processes,...

It is increasingly important in financial economics to estimate volatilities of asset returns. However, most the available methods are not directly applicable when number assets involved large, due lack accuracy estimating high-dimensional matrices. Therefore it pertinent reduce effective size volatility matrices order produce adequate estimates and forecasts. Furthermore, since high-frequency data for different typically recorded at same time points, conventional dimension-reduction...

High-frequency data observed on the prices of financial assets are commonly modeled by diffusion processes with micro-structure noise, and realized volatility-based methods often used to estimate integrated volatility. For problems involving a large number assets, estimation objects we face volatility matrices size. The existing estimators work well for small but perform poorly when is very large. In fact, they inconsistent both number, p, average sample size, n, price p go infinity. This...

This paper investigates the statistical relationship of GARCH model and its diffusion limit. Regarding two types models as experiments formed by discrete observations from models, we study their asymptotic equivalence in terms Le Cam's deficiency distance. To our surprise, are able to show that limit asymptotically equivalent only under deterministic volatility. With stochastic volatility, due difference between structure with respect noise propagation conditional variances, likelihood...

Background: Although clinical guidelines recommend smoking cessation to improve bone health, the impact of short-term (i.e., 1 year) on mineral density (BMD) is not known. We examined effects BMD measurements, markers turnover, and hormone profiles in postmenopausal women. Methods: Postmenopausal women (n = 152) who smoked at least 10 cigarettes per day were randomly assigned behavioral counseling either nicotine or placebo patch for (3-month treatment with a 1-month taper) followed an...

Financial practices often need to estimate an integrated volatility matrix of a large number assets using noisy high-frequency data. Many existing estimators small dimensions become inconsistent when the size is close or larger than sample size. This paper introduces new type estimator based on nonsynchronized data, allowing for presence microstructure noise. When both and go infinity, we show that our consistent achieves fast convergence rate, where rate optimal with respect A simulation...

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a gestational disorder characterized by hyperglycemia, that can lead to dysfunction of diverse cells in the body, especially immune cells. It has been reported cells, specifically natural killer (NK) play crucial role normal pregnancy. However, it remains unknown how hyperglycemia affects NK cell thus participates development GDM. In this experiment, GDM mice were induced an intraperitoneal injection streptozotocin (STZ) after pregnancy and found...

Large volatility matrices are involved in many finance practices, and estimating large based on high-frequency financial data encounters the "curse of dimensionality". It is a common approach to impose sparsity assumption produce consistent matrix estimators. However, due existence factors, assets highly correlated with each other, it not reasonable assume sparse applications. This paper incorporates factor influence asset pricing model investigates estimation under price together some...

<title>Abstract</title> Natural killer (NK) cell immunotherapy exhibits limited efficacy in non-small lung cancer (NSCLC) due to the suppressive tumor-associated immune microenvironment. Previous studies have shown that interleukin-6 (IL-6) contributes NK dysfunction and decreases NKp30 expression. However, underlying mechanisms warrant further investigation. In this study, we identified elevated IL-6 reduced expression correlating with poor prognosis NSCLC patients. Tumoral inversely...

This paper studies a general framework for high-order tensor SVD. We propose new computationally efficient algorithm, tensor-train orthogonal iteration (TTOI), that aims to estimate the low rank structure from noisy observation. The proposed TTOI consists of initialization via TT-SVD [1] and iterative backward/forward updates. develop upper bound on estimation error with support several representation lemmas matricizations. By developing matching information-theoretic lower bound, we also...
