A Comparison of Variance Estimators for Logistic Regression Models Estimated Using Generalized Estimating Equations (GEE) in the Context of Observational Health Services Research
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Statistics in Medicine"
DOI: 10.1002/sim.10260
Abstract: In observational health services research, researchers often use clustered data to estimate the independent association between individual outcomes and several cluster‐level covariates after adjusting for individual‐level characteristics. Generalized estimating equations are a popular method for… read more here.

TIVelo: RNA velocity estimation leveraging cluster-level trajectory inference
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2025 at "Nature Communications"
DOI: 10.1038/s41467-025-61628-x
Abstract: RNA velocity inference is a valuable tool for understanding cell development, differentiation, and disease progression. However, existing RNA velocity inference methods typically rely on explicit assumptions of ordinary differential equations (ODE), which prohibits them from… read more here.

DOI: 10.1039/d4nr03047h
Abstract: Au25(SG)18 (SG: glutathione) nanoclusters, characterized by their atomically precise structures, exhibit near-infrared II (NIR-II) fluorescence emission and excellent biocompatibility, making them highly promising for imaging applications. However, their comparatively low photoluminescence quantum yield (QY) in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/00273171.2021.1994364
Abstract: Recently, there has been growing interest in using machine learning methods for causal inference due to their automatic and flexible ability to model the propensity score and the outcome model. However, almost all the machine… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/ije/dyy057
Abstract: Background: Cluster randomised trials (CRTs) are increasingly used to assess the effectiveness of health interventions. Three main analysis approaches are: cluster-level analyses, mixed-models and generalized estimating equations (GEEs). Mixed models and GEEs can lead to… read more here.

Practical issues in operationalizing the design and outcome evaluation of cluster randomized trials
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Clinical Trials"
DOI: 10.1177/17407745221087465
Abstract: Trial designs using cluster-level randomization are necessary when interventions have intended effects that cannot be measured with individual randomization. When an intervention is intrinsically only able to be delivered to a cluster or when implementation… read more here.

Epidemiological Characteristics and Transmissibility for SARS-CoV-2 of Population Level and Cluster Level in a Chinese City
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Frontiers in Public Health"
DOI: 10.3389/fpubh.2021.799536
Abstract: Background To date, there is a lack of sufficient evidence on the type of clusters in which severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is most likely to spread. Notably, the differences between cluster-level and… read more here.
