Risk-Adjusted Estimation and Graduation of Transition Intensities for Disability and Long-Term Care Insurance: A Multi-State Model Approach by Beatriz A. Curioso, Gracinda R. Guerreiro, Manuel L. Esquível

“…To illustrate the proposed framework, we simulate a dataset with individual risk profiles and model trajectories, mirroring Portugal’s demographic composition. This allows us to derive a functional form (as a function of age) for the transition intensities, stratified by relevant risk factors, thus enabling precise risk differentiation. …”

Host selection is not a universal driver of phyllosphere community assembly among ecologically similar native New Zealand plant species by Anya S. Noble, Jaber Abbaszadeh, Charles K. Lee

“…In contrast, the phyllosphere community compositions of neighbouring, ecologically similar native plants were highly variable, suggesting that stochastic processes, such as dispersal, had a stronger influence on the phyllosphere microbiomes of those non-mānuka plants compared to the phyllosphere microbiome of mānuka. …”
