Psychometric properties of the Persian version of the overall anxiety severity and impairment scale (OASIS)

Objectives: This study was conducted to assess the psychometric properties of the Persian version of the overall anxiety severity and impairment scale (OASIS), a measure designed to evaluate the severity and functional impairments associated with …

Sleep abnormalities in individuals at clinical high risk for psychosis

Youth at clinical high risk (CHR) represent a unique population enriched for precursors of major psychiatric disorders. Sleep disturbances are consistently reported in CHR individuals. However, there is a dearth of studies investigating quantifiable …

On the Extended Chen Distribution: Development, Properties, Characterizations and Applications

In this paper, a flexible model called extended Chen (EC) distribution is derived from the generalized Burr-Hatke differential equation and nexus between the exponential and gamma variables. The EC distribution is also derived from compounding …

Cubic Rank Transmuted Modified Burr III Distribution: Development, Properties, Characterizations and Applications

Functional singular spectrum analysis

In this paper, we develop a new extension of the singular spectrum analysis (SSA) called functionalSSA to analyze functional time series. The new methodology is constructed by integrating ideasfrom functional data analysis and univariate SSA. …

Functional brain response to emotional musical stimuli in depression, using INLA approach for approximate Bayesian inference

Introduction: One of the vital skills which has an impact on emotional health and well-being is the regulation of emotions. In recent years, the neural basis of this process has been considered widely. One of the powerful tools for eliciting and …

The transmuted odd log-logistic-G family of distributions

A new class of models called the transmuted odd log-logistic-G family IS proposed and studied. The method of maximum likelihood is used to estimate the unknown parameters. The performance of the ma...

Assembly of Capsids from Hepatitis B Virus Core Protein Progresses through Highly Populated Intermediates in the Presence and Absence of RNA

Copyright © 2020 American Chemical Society. The genetic material of viruses is protected by protein shells that are assembled from a large number of subunits in a process that is efficient and robust. Many of the mechanistic details underpinning …

Distinctive alteration in the expression of autophagy genes in Drosophila models of amyloidopathy and tauopathy

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one the most common types of dementia. Plaques of amyloid beta and neurofibrillary tangles of tau are two major hallmarks of AD. Metabolism of these two proteins, in part, depends on autophagy pathways. …

On Modified Extended Exponential Power Life Testing Distribution: Development, Properties, Characterizations and Application

© 2018, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature. In this paper, a flexible modified extended exponential power life testing (MEEPLT) distribution is proposed. The MEEPLT distribution has increasing, decreasing and bathtub hazard rate …
