Another limitation of this approach is that the latent construct of overall QOL had to be modelled as different variables; SEM would allow the different representations of overall QOL to contribute statistically to a latent variable. We demonstrated a novel way of using multivariate linear regressions...
206 [45]. The molecular machinery that drives human microglia development and regional diversity remain unclear. Also, whether these clusters of microglia in selected brain regions reflect a region-specific function or susceptibility of microglia to human aging and AD remains to be elucidated. Initial...
Next, LASSO estimation was used to simultaneously achieve variable shrinkage using the glmnet R package [29]. The optimal values of the penalty parameter lambda in the LASSO estimation were obtained through ten-times cross-validations [30]. Finally, we obtained a best-fitting prognostic model by ...
To further test the strength of the immune clusters as an important prognostic biomarker, we used a stepwise backward selection. From the initial Cox models containing all variables, we removed the weakest predictor variable only if this did not weaken the model (as monitored by the calculation o...
oligotrophic environmental context [7]. However, symbiosis-related phenotypes, such as the spatial structure of bacteriocytes and the physiological adaptations between the host and the symbiont, are highly variable in bivalves [25]. The evolutionary fingerprints under these variations need further ...
multinomial logistic regression analyses were condected using sociodemographic variables and hardiness as independent variables and class membership as dependent variable [30]. Odds ratios with a 95% confdence interval (CI) were reported. A certain independent variable was regarded as a predictor for ...
After these analyses, we also submitted the status of GFAs (the GFA stage or presence or absence of GFA) as an independent variable into the model of the amygdala, middle frontal gyrus, caudate nucleus, and putamen. However, the results were not changed (Supplementary Table4). ...
These data points might reveal pertinent information if: a) a novel biological variable results from the regression slopes of paired observations; b) suitable methods, including our uniquely designed randomization test, maintain the statistical significance of the relationship; or c) statistical ...

Even in the successful cases, the number of computational steps required for the Linsker and Foldiak rules is more than 10 times greater than that required for the EGHR because they need to update variable v in high time resolution before sources signif- icantly change. In contrast, other ...
