Abstract Hypothesis‐testing methods for multivariate data are needed to make rigorous probability statements about the effects of factors and their interactions in experiments. Analysis of variance is particularly powe...

Abstract Objective: Funnel plots (plots of effect estimates against sample size) may be useful to detect bias in meta-analyses that were later contradicted by large trials. We examined whether a simple test of asymmetry ...

Despite the widespread use of exploratory factor analysis in psychological research, researchers often make questionable decisions when conducting these analyses. This article reviews the major design and analytical deci...

With its theoretical basis firmly established in molecular evolutionary and population genetics, the comparative DNA and protein sequence analysis plays a central role in reconstructing the evolutionary histories of spec...

A method of ‘‘natural population analysis’’ has been developed to calculate atomic charges and orbital populations of molecular wave functions in general atomic orbital basis sets. The natural analysis is an alte...

Content analysis is a widely used qualitative research technique. Rather than being a single method, current applications of content analysis show three distinct approaches: conventional, directed, or summative. All thre...

BACKGROUND: the analysis of microbial communities through dna sequencing brings many challenges: the integration of different types of data with methods from ecology, genetics, phylogenetics, multivariate statistics, vis...

Topicality of comparative study in Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) is determined by the need to deepen analysis of economic activity challenges and opportunities related to cross-border investments. Research in FDI tren...

This study evaluates the combined analysis of a two-tier test and Rasch analysis on learning assessment. A quantitative exploratory design was conducted on the validated 10-item Particulate Nature of Gas Concept Test (PN...

Abstract Background Furosemide, a commonly used diuretic, activates the renin‐angiotensin‐aldosterone system (RAAS) in other species. Little is known about RAAS peptide activation in horses. Hypothesis/Objectives To ...

Abstract Background Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) and porcine circovirus type 3 (PCV3) have emerged as significant pathogens jeopardizing the swine industry in China in recent years, and caused substantial economic lo...

ABSTRACT This study aimed to assess the physical performance of Pantaneiro horses with and without equine infectious anemia (EIA) under functional conditions of cattle management. The horses were subjected to a performan...

Abstract Objective This study aimed to systematically identify and validate KIF15 as a potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in colon cancer (CC) using integrated bioinformatics analyses. We further explored its ...

BackgroundChronic hepatitis B (CHB) caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV) remains a major global health burden. The immune-active (IA) phase, characterized by positive Hepatitis B surface antigens (HBsAg), elevated alani...

This Campbell systematic review assesses the effectiveness of school‐based decision‐making. The review summarises findings from 17 impact studies and nine studies of barriers and enablers. School‐based decision‐m...

Introduction and Aims: Mandibular movement is a complex physiological process essential for orofacial function. Patients with disc displacement without reduction (DDWoR) exhibit significant kinematic impairments, which a...

Abstract Background Thalassemia is the most prevalent single-gene disorder in Sri Lanka, imposing a significant socioeconomic and healthcare burden. Early carrier detection is essential for genetic counselling and the pr...
