The influence of packed cell volume versus plasma proteins on thromboelastographic variables in canine blood
JOURNAL OF VETERINARY EMERGENCY AND CRITICAL CARE, 30(4), 418–425.
MeSH headings : Animals; Blood Coagulation Tests / veterinary; Blood Proteins / physiology; Cell Size; Dogs / blood; Female; Fibrinogen / metabolism; Hematocrit / veterinary; Male; Thrombelastography / veterinary
TL;DR:
In an ex vivo model, plasma proteins but not PCV impacted TEG variables, suggesting that TEG changes noted with anemia are imparted by changes in available fibrinogen in a fixed microenvironment rather than artifact of anemia.

Global forensic geolocation with deep neural networks
JOURNAL OF THE ROYAL STATISTICAL SOCIETY SERIES C-APPLIED STATISTICS, 69(4), 909–929.
author keywords: Citizen science; Machine learning; Microbiome; Non-homogeneous Poisson process; Spatial point pattern
TL;DR:
The DeepSpace algorithm makes remarkably good point predictions; for example, when applied to the microbiomes of over 1300 dust samples collected across continental USA, more than half of geolocated predictions produced by this model fall less than 100 km from their true origin, which is a 60% reduction in error from competing geolocation methods.

TL;DR:
A new kernel-based test called CONCUR is developed that is free from a definition of locus and evaluates CNV-phenotype associations by comparing individuals’ copy number profiles across the genomic regions and is well powered to detect CNV effects in the Swedish Schizophrenia Study and the Taiwan Biobank.

Nonlinear Dose-Response Modeling of High-Throughput Screening Data Using an Evolutionary Algorithm
DOSE-RESPONSE, 18(2).
author keywords: evolutionary algorithm; hillslope model; parameter estimation; nonlinear regression; model selection
TL;DR:
This work proposes the use of an EA for dose–response modeling for a range of potential response model functional forms that can not only fit the most commonly used nonlinear dose– response models but also select the best model if no model assumption is made, which is especially useful in the case of high-throughput curve fitting.
