Combinazione non parametrica di statistiche basate sulle mediane per il problema di Behrens-Fisher multivariato
Creators: name: Nicolini, G.
Publisher: name: Dep. of Statistical Sciences "Paolo Fortunati", Università di Bologna
Year: 2013

description: James (1954), Ying Yao (1965), Ballin-Pesarin (1990) have proposed approximate solutions of the Behrens-Fisher p-variate problem. The last-mentioned is regarded as the best in approximating both the nominal significance level and the power. This solution is based on the nonparametric combination of p permutation tests, each referring to p marginal hypotheses. In Ballin-Pesarin solution, the marginal tests used are Welch's statistical tests, which, as is well known, do not strictly respect the principle of permutation inasmuch as they are quasi-invariant with respect to unknown variance ratios.
In this paper, I propose a marginal permutation test of sample medians. I believe that, in order to comply more fully with the invariant properties of permutational distribution of the median as opposed to the mean, such medians improve the approximation of the nominal significance level and the exact power.
It is proved, moreover, that the proposed marginal test is unbiased and consistent.

Valutazione di distribuzioni in un problema di dispersione turbolenta
Creators: name: Scarani, C.
Publisher: name: Dep. of Statistical Sciences "Paolo Fortunati", Università di Bologna
Year: 2013

description: Enviromental control problems demand an increasing care in modelling diffusion in real turbulent flows. In this paper we will deal with a problem arising with the so-called "Lagrangian" or "random flight" models of dispersion. In such models some statistical informations about flow turbulence (mean value, variance and possibly skewness of the velocity component distributions) are used to compute the trajectories of a large number of marked fluid particles. The ensemble average of such trajectories allows an evaluation of the concentration of the marker. These dispersion models are specially appropriate for inhomogeneous turbulence fields, such as it occurs in the atmosphere over hills or near large buildings.

Change agents: Alex Wodak and Lucy Haslam on the push to legalise medicinal cannabis
Creators: name: Dodd, Andrew
name: Wilson, Samuel
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: In 2016 three Australian states and the Commonwealth passed laws to legalise the growing of medicinal cannabis. It was an extraordinary result for a campaign that struggled for decades to gain traction. Suddenly the push had taken off in the public imagination, prompting state and then federal politicians to agree to the cultivation and prescription of cannabis for people suffering from a wide range of conditions. In this episode of Change Agents, Andrew Dodd speaks to Lucy Haslam, who launched the grassroots campaign in New South Wales after her son Dan was diagnosed with terminal cancer, and Alex Wodak, the president of the Australian Drug Law Reform Foundation. Together they convinced the public and politicians the time for change had come.
The study of the Gini concentration ratio by means of the influence function
Creators: name: Monti, A. C.
Publisher: name: Dep. of Statistical Sciences "Paolo Fortunati", Università di Bologna
Year: 2013

description: In this paper the influence function of the Gini concentration ratio is determined. The resulting function is used to verify the robustness properties of the functional, which proves sensitive to the presence of outliers. The local shift sensitivity is then determined and it is shown to be bounded under the assumption that income is a continuous random variable.
Finally the influence function is used in the approximation of the bias of Gini's concentration ratio due to grouped data.

La base monetaria, la moneta ed i prezzi in Italia negli anni '80
Creators: name: Cleur, E. M.
Publisher: name: Dep. of Statistical Sciences "Paolo Fortunati", Università di Bologna
Year: 2013

description: Causal relationships between money, the monetary base and consumer prices in Italy in the 80's are analysed in the frequency domain following mainly the methodology developed in Geweke (1982). A frequency domain analysis enables us, not only to detect causal relationships otherwise absent in a time domain analysis, but also to single out che components most responsable for such relationships. Thus we find that the causal relationships between money on the one side and consumer prices and the monetary base on the other are largely due to the long term fluctuations in the series.

description: Background Inpatient palliative care is associated with lower inpatient costs; however, this has yet to be studied using a more nuanced, multi-tiered measure of inpatient palliative care and a national population-representative dataset. Using a population-based cohort of Canadians who died in hospital, our objectives were to: describe patients’ receipt of palliative care and active interventions in their terminal hospitalization; and examine the relationship between inpatient palliative care and hospitalization costs. Methods Retrospective cohort study using data from the Discharge Abstract Database in Canada between fiscal years 2012 and 2015. The cohort were Canadian adults (age ≥ 18 years) who died in hospital between April 1st, 2012 and March 31st, 2015 (N = 250,640). The exposure was level of palliative care involvement defined as: medium-high, low, or no palliative care. The main measure was acute care costs calculated using resource intensity weights multiplied by the cost of standard hospital stay, represented in 2014 Canadian dollars (CAD). Descriptive statistics were represented as median (IQR), and n(%). We modelled cost as a function of palliative care using a gamma generalized estimating equation (GEE) model, accounting for clustering by hospital. Results There were 250,640 adults who died in hospital. Mean age was 76 (SD 14), 47% were female. The most common comorbidities were: metastatic cancer (21%), heart failure (21%), and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (16%). Of the decedents, 95,450 (38%) had no palliative care involvement, 98,849 (38%) received low involvement, and 60,341 (24%) received medium to high involvement. Controlling for age, sex, province and predicted hospital mortality risk at admission, the cost per day of a terminal hospitalization was: $1359 (95% CI 1323: 1397) (no involvement), $1175 (95% CI 1146: 1206) (low involvement), and $744 (95% CI 728: 760) (medium-high involvement). Conclusions Increased involvement of palliative care was associated with lower costs. Future research should explore whether this relationship holds for non-terminal hospitalizations, and whether palliative care in other settings impacts inpatient costs.

Year: 2013

description: In this study, an optional randomized response strategy has been proposed using non-stigmatized attribute. The proportion of the non-sensitive attribute has been assumed to be known. Though the proposed estimator is biased, the bias can be reduced by choosing the parameters suitably. The situations, where the suggested technique fares well as compared to original unrelated question randomized response procedure have been identified.

description: The statistical intuition of nature is the image of the world suggested by the phenomenologies of heat, radioactivity and quanta. Yet it is even more irreversibly the stochastic and populationistic representation of biological phenomena, which emerge from evolutionary theory, from population genetics. This paper proposes a reappraisal of the lines of thought that have fostered the rise of a new indeterministic interpretation of reality, in the physical and life sciences.

description: In this paper we look for statistical regularities in football pools, a game in which many variables, not all of them random, play an important role. Studing the results of the football matches of the decade 1980-90 we succeed in fitting a multinomial model to the distribution of winning compositions and this may be read as an indicator of a sort of independence in the results of football pools which expresses itself in the invariance of the probabilities of the results 1, x, 2. This, however, does not mean that every team has the same probability of winning, losing or drawing; in fact the composition that more frequently wins is not the one realized by the highest number of permutations. A further proof of the presence of not-random components in the game of football pools is given by the low correlation between the empirical frequencies of wins and the probability of the winning columns.

Year: 2013

description: Spatial zonal data are constituted by aggregation of the characteristics of individuals. There is a wide range of different ways in which this aggregation can be done. The problem of the arbitrariness and the irregularity of areal units is referred to as the modifiable areal unit problem.
In studying the effects of aggregation and scale on the statistical properties of some univariate and multivariate parameters, complex analytical expressions have been recently found for spatial processes related to aggregated areal units in a very simple kind of spatial autoregressive model reasonable for well behaved variables (Arbia 1988).
If the data we are studying follow a process whose distribution is far from being normal, a Monte Carlo approach can be very useful in studying, at least empirically, the effects of spatial data configuration on statistical methods. Random aggregations of n zones in m (where m < n), with a contiguity constraint, have been performed on three different spatial systems. Zoning distributions of some ordinary statistics have been evaluated for data generated from four different probability distributions. This approach has proved to be very useful to understand important peculiarities of statistical methods in spatial data analysis.

description: This paper discusses the Bayesian reliability analysis for the two-parameter exponential distribution on the basis of the life tests that are terminated after a pre assigned number of failures, when the prior distribution of the location parameter, given the scale, is assumed to be exponential, while the scale parameter is assumed to have an inverse Gaussian prior distribution. The usual assumption of the squared error loss function is also made. A situation dealing with attribute life testing is also considered.

description: Background: As the legalization of recreational cannabis becomes more widespread, its impact on individuals with substance use disorders must be studied. Amidst an ongoing opioid crisis, Canada’s legalization of recreational cannabis in October 2018 provides an important setting for investigation. We examined changes to cannabis use patterns in patients receiving medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid use disorder (OUD) following legalization. Methods: This study includes cross-sectional data from 602 participants recruited 6 months pre-legalization and 788 participants recruited 6 months post-legalization, providing information on cannabis use. Regression analysis was used to estimate the association between legalization and cannabis use patterns. We collected longitudinal urine drug screens (UDSs) detecting cannabis-metabolites for 199 participants recruited pre-legalization and followed prospectively post-legalization. Conditional logistic regression was used to assess the association between legalization and UDS results. Results: Past-month cannabis use was self-reported by 54.8 and 52.3% of participants recruited pre- and post-legalization, respectively. Legalization was not associated with changes in any measured cannabis characteristics: cannabis use (OR 0.91, 95% CI 0.73–1.13), days of use/month (B -0.42, 95% CI - 2.05-1.21), money spent, or cannabis source. There was no association between legalization and prevalence of cannabis use on UDS (OR 1.67, 95% CI 0.93–2.99) or percentage of cannabis-positive UDSs (OR 1.00, 95% CI 0.99–1.01). Participants overwhelmingly reported that legalization would have no impact on their cannabis use (85.7%). Conclusions: Amongst patients treated for OUD, no significant change in cannabis use was observed following legalization; however, high rates of cannabis use are noted.

description: Computational pattern recognition is an invaluable tool in understanding the phenomenology of complex processes and represents the first step towards their effective physical modelling. So far its practical applications have been rather limited, but its potential appears great in all the fields characterized by a behaviour complex enough to defy intuition. We discuss in detail pattern recognition algorithms of the "logic" type, which proved effective in a number of diverse fields.

description: Background: The SARS-CoV-2 (COVID) pandemic has resulted in an increase in virtual care. While some specialties are well suited to virtual care, Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery could be limited due to reliance on physical examination and nasal endoscopy, including Rhinology. It is likely virtual care will remain integrated for the foreseeable future and it is important to determine the strengths and weaknesses of this treatment modality for rhinology. Methods: A survey on virtual care in rhinology was distributed to 61 Canadian rhinologists. The primary objective was to determine how virtual care compared to in-person care in each area of a typical appointment. Other areas focused on platforms used to deliver virtual care and which patients could be appropriately assessed by virtual visits. Results: 43 participants responded (response rate 70.5%). The majority of participants use the telephone as their primary platform. History taking and reviewing results (lab work, imaging) were reported to be equivalent in virtual care. Non-urgent follow up and new patients were thought to be the most appropriate for virtual care. The inability to perform exams and nasal endoscopy were reported to be significant limitations. Conclusion: It is important to understand the strengths and limitations of virtual care. These results identify the perceived strengths and weaknesses of virtual care in rhinology, and will help rhinologists understand the role of virtual care in their practices.

Dazu wurden erstmalig Studien und Messergebnisse aus verschiedenen europäischen Ländern harmonisiert und vergleichbar gemacht. Die Ergebnisse von HBM4EU zeigen, dass die Belastungen mit fast allen untersuchten Umweltstoffen in europäischen Bürgerinnen und Bürgern so hoch sind, dass negative gesundheitliche Auswirkungen nicht mehr mit ausreichender Sicherheit ausgeschlossen werden können oder mit einem zusätzlichen Krebsrisiko zu rechnen ist. Um ein zeitgerechtes Einspeisen der Ergebnisse in wichtige Entscheidungsprozesse aus Politik und Wissenschaft sicherzustellen, wurde der Fokus von Beginn an auf eine zielgerichtete und effiziente Kommunikations- und Verteilungsstrategie gelegt. Der folgende Artikel stellt die für verschiedene Zielgruppen entwickelten Kommunikationsmaterialien vor.

description: In June 2022, the German Environment Agency and its partner organisations successfully completed the large-scale European project "Human Biomonitoring for Europe" (HBM4EU). The aim of the initiative was to systematically monitor and evaluate selected environmental chemicals within Europe and to quickly make them available as data to regulatory authorities at national and EU level, and to interested parties. For this purpose, studies and results from different European countries were harmonised and made comparable for the first time. The results of HBM4EU show that the exposure of European citizens to almost all environmental substances monitored is so high that negative health effects can no longer be ruled out with sufficient certainty or that an additional cancer risk is to be expected. In order to guarantee that the results are fed into important decision-making processes in politics and science in a timely manner, the focus was placed on a targeted and efficient communication and dissemination strategy from the very beginning of the project. The following article introduces the tailored communication materials to different target groups.

Residuals for limited dependent variable models
Creators: name: Brannas, K.
Publisher: name: Dep. of Statistical Sciences "Paolo Fortunati", Università di Bologna
Year: 2013

description: General residual expressions based on likelihood equations are given for regression models with censoring or truncation on the endogenous variable. Using nonparametric density estimation such general expressions may be used to obtain residuals for models estimated by, e.g., semiparametric estimators. The suggested approach is illustrated by numerical examples.

Semiparametric combinations of two dependent tests
Creators: name: Pallini, A.
Publisher: name: Dep. of Statistical Sciences "Paolo Fortunati", Università di Bologna
Year: 2013

description: A semiparametric estimator of the p-value for a class of combinations of two dependent test statistics is proposed. It is based on resampling techniques and knowledge of the marginal distributions of the two test statistics to be combined. The semiparametric
estimator is shown to be asymptotically not less efficient than the nonparametric counterpart, only based on the estimation by resampling techniques of the joint null  distribution of the two test statistics.

description: Firearm violence is a critical public health issue in the United States. Extreme Risk Protection Order (ERPO) laws are an intervention method that have been enacted in many states to prevent firearm violence including mass violence threats. Oregon’s ERPO law allows family/household members or law enforcement officers (LEOs) to petition a civil court for an order to temporarily restrict a person’s access to firearms when at imminent risk of harming themselves or others. This study examined the characteristics of ERPO petitions filed in Oregon for a 6-year period that involved mass violence threats.

Il problema della riduzione del numero di parametri nell'analisi discriminante
Creators: name: Perna, C.
Publisher: name: Dep. of Statistical Sciences "Paolo Fortunati", Università di Bologna
Year: 2013

description: In this paper we discuss a statistical procedure for reducing the number of parameters to be estimated in the quadratic discriminant function. This procedure is based on the specification of relationships between covariance matrices of the populations.
In the problem of discrimination between two populations, we have considered two particular relationships: the first specifies a common principal components model and the second equal correlation matrices.
After a brief review of the methods, we compare the apparent error rate of the discriminant functions associated with the proposed models with those of the classical linear and quadratic functions for a set of simulated data.

On some aspects of general balance in designed experiments
Creators: name: Mejza, S.
Publisher: name: Dep. of Statistical Sciences "Paolo Fortunati", Università di Bologna
Year: 2013

description: The paper is about some properties of designed experiments satisfying general balance. Some types of block designs and row-column designs are taken into account. It is assumed that observations follow a randomized model extended on technical errors. In particular, the useful method of checking the property of general balance is proposed. Moreover, the decomposition of treatment space, in which respect the design is generally balanced, is given. This decomposition is based on the eigenvectors of matrices (C-matrices) usually used in examination of the design properties. The relationship between the notions of general balance and efficiency balance is also considered.
Finally, the problem of preserving the general balance by a design constructing method, called merging treatments method, is examined.
