The circulating level of a novel RNA-proteolipid complex associated with malignant diseases was critically evaluated as a tumor marker in clinical oncology. The complex, isolated from the sera of cancer patients, exhibited unvarying chemical composition regardless of the cell type and clinical staging. Clearance from blood was rapid with a half-life of approximately 2 days. Tumor mass could be ...

The Maximin Efficiency-Robust Test idea of Gastwirth (1966) was to maximize the minimum asymptotic power (for fixed size) versus special local families of alternatives over some specially chosen families of score statistics. This approach is reviewed from a general decision-theoretical perspective, including some Bayesian variants. For two-sample censored-data rank tests and stochastically orde...

Using a rich longitudinal data set from birth, we explore three estimation issues related to academic performance analysis. Our paper primarily examines the effect of omitting childhood and teenage characteristics (childhood ability, parental resources at different times and peer effects), which are traditionally unavailable in data sets. Additionally, we explore the potential endogeneity of pr...
