Optimizing delivery of a behavioral pain intervention in cancer patients using a sequential multiple assignment randomized trial SMART
Contemporary Clinical Trials, 57, 51–57.
author keywords: Smart; Novel trial designs; Breast cancer; Pain; Pain coping skills training; Symptom management
MeSH headings : Adaptation, Psychological; Adult; Breast Neoplasms / complications; Breast Neoplasms / therapy; Cognitive Behavioral Therapy / economics; Cognitive Behavioral Therapy / methods; Cost-Benefit Analysis; Female; Humans; Pain Management / economics; Pain Management / methods; Pain Measurement
TL;DR:
This is one of the first trials to use a novel design to evaluate symptom management in cancer patients and in chronic illness; if successful, it could serve as a model for future work with a wide range of chronic illnesses.

Principal components adjusted variable screening
COMPUTATIONAL STATISTICS & DATA ANALYSIS, 110, 134–144.
author keywords: Generalized linear models; Principal components; Variable selection; Sure screening
TL;DR:
A principal components adjusted variable screening method is proposed, which uses top principal components as surrogate covariates to account for the variability of the omitted predictors in generalized linear models.

Deriving effective vaccine allocation strategies for pandemic influenza: Comparison of an agent-based simulation and a compartmental model
PLOS ONE, 12(2).
Contributors: Ö. Dalgiç*, O. Özaltin , W. Ciccotelli* & F. Erenay *
MeSH headings : Adolescent; Adult; Age Factors; Aged; Child; Child, Preschool; Computer Simulation; Disease Transmission, Infectious / statistics & numerical data; Humans; Infant; Influenza Vaccines / supply & distribution; Influenza, Human / epidemiology; Influenza, Human / prevention & control; Influenza, Human / transmission; Middle Aged; Models, Theoretical; Pandemics / prevention & control; Resource Allocation; Risk; Systems Analysis; Time Factors; Urban Population; Washington; Young Adult
TL;DR:
This work derives age-specific vaccine allocation strategies to mitigate a pandemic influenza outbreak in Seattle by applying derivative-free optimization to an agent-based simulation and also to a compartmental model and compares the strategies derived under various infection aggressiveness and vaccine coverage scenarios.

Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of Four Simulated Colorectal Cancer Screening Interventions, North Carolina
Preventing Chronic Disease, 14.
MeSH headings : Aged; Colorectal Neoplasms / diagnosis; Colorectal Neoplasms / epidemiology; Computer Simulation; Cost-Benefit Analysis; Female; Humans; Male; Mass Screening / economics; Mass Screening / methods; Middle Aged; North Carolina; Risk Factors
TL;DR:
Cost-effective CRC screening interventions targeting observed disparities are available, but substantial investment and additional approaches beyond those considered here are required to realize greater increases population-wide.

Changes in cigarette smoking initiation, cessation, and relapse among US adults: a comparison of two longitudinal samples
TOBACCO INDUCED DISEASES, 15.
author keywords: Smoking; Initiation; Cessation; Relapse; Cigarette
TL;DR:
Transitions between smoking states are complex and increasingly unstable, requiring a holistic, population-based perspective to understand the stocks and flows that ultimately dictate the public health impact of cigarette smoking behavior.

A Maximum Expected Covering Problem for District Design
Transportation Science, 51(1), 376–390.
author keywords: emergency medical services; expected covering models; queuing approximations; Hypercube correction factors; load balancing; district contiguity
TL;DR:
A novel mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model that determines how to locate and dispatch ambulances through district design and maximizes the coverage level is proposed, which suggests that the reduction in coverage to maintain contiguity and balanced workloads among the ambulances is small.

Single-ratio fractional integer programs with stochastic right-hand sides
IISE TRANSACTIONS, 49(6), 579–592.
Contributors: J. Zhang n & O. Özaltın n
author keywords: Fractional integer programming; stochastic integer programming; value functions; superadditive duality
TL;DR:
This work presents an equivalent value function reformulation for a class of single-ratio Fractional Integer Programs (FIPs) with stochastic right-hand sides and proposes a two-phase solution approach that can solve instances whose extensive forms have the same order of magnitude as the largest Stochastic quadratic integer programs solved in the literature.

Note on Cournot Competition Under Yield Uncertainty
M&SOM-MANUFACTURING & SERVICE OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT, 19(2), 305–308.
Contributors: M. Jansen n & O. Özaltin n
author keywords: Cournot competition; random yield; capacity constraints; influenza vaccine market
TL;DR:
A Cournot competition model with asymmetric firms facing capacity constraints and yield uncertainty is formulated, and a threshold structure is shown that shows that society can benefit from supplier diversification under weaker conditions.
