Effect of different reward levels on tag reporting rates and behavior of common snook anglers in southeast Florida

NORTH AMERICAN JOURNAL OF FISHERIES MANAGEMENT, 26(3), 645–651.

By: R. Taylor*, J. Whittington*, W. Pine* & K. Pollock n

TL;DR: It was determined that reporting rates by recreational anglers for tagged common snook Centropomus undecimalis along the Atlantic coast of Florida were approximately 60–70% and angler reporting rates were influenced by the use of high-reward tags. (via Semantic Scholar)

A two-stage design for multiple testing in large-scale association studies

JOURNAL OF HUMAN GENETICS, 51(6), 523–532.

By: S. Wen*, J. Tzeng n, J. Kao* & C. Hsiao*

author keywords: association studies; cost-effectiveness; false positive rate; multiple testing; two-stage design
MeSH headings : Cost-Benefit Analysis; Data Interpretation, Statistical; False Positive Reactions; Genetic Markers; Genetic Techniques; Genotype; Humans; Hyperlipoproteinemia Type IV / genetics; Models, Genetic; Polymorphism, Single Nucleotide
TL;DR: The main principle is to reduce the total number of tests by removing clearly unassociated markers in the first-stage test, which may be useful in guiding study design to achieve a high TPR while retaining the desired FPR. (via Semantic Scholar)

Spatial association between speciated fine particles and mortality

BIOMETRICS, 62(3), 855–863.

Contributors: M. Fuentes n, H. Song n, S. Ghosh n, D. Holland* & J. Davis n

author keywords: ambient air pollution; Bayesian hierarchical models; conditional autoregressive models; environmental epidemiology; particulate matter; spatial statistics
MeSH headings : Air Pollutants / toxicity; Bayes Theorem; Biometry; Cardiovascular Diseases / etiology; Cardiovascular Diseases / mortality; Humans; Models, Biological; Models, Statistical; Mortality; Particle Size; Regression Analysis; Respiratory Tract Diseases / etiology; Respiratory Tract Diseases / mortality; Risk; United States / epidemiology
TL;DR: A multivariate spatial regression model is developed for the estimation of the risk of mortality associated with fine PM and its components across all counties in the conterminous United States and shows that in the Western United States, the nitrate and crustal components of the speciated fine PM seem to have more impact on mortality than the other components.

Semiparametric transformation models for the case-cohort study

By: W. Lu n & A. Tsiatis n

author keywords: case-cohort design; martingale; transformation model; weighted estimating equation
TL;DR: Weighted estimating equations are proposed for simultaneous estimation of the regression parameters and the transformation function and it is shown that the resulting regression estimators are asymptotically normal, with variance-covariance matrix that has a closed form and can be consistently estimated by the usual plug-in method.
