Comparison of multi-state Markov models for cancer progression with different procedures for parameters estimation. An application to breast cancer by Leonardo Ventura, Giulia Carreras, Donella Puliti, Eugenio Paci, Marco Zappa, Guido Miccinesi

“…All the models produced estimates for screening sensitivity and mean sojourn time. The data used in our application seem to lead to a non-identifiability problem, since the estimation procedures for both the Maximum Likelihood and Non-Linear Least Squares gave estimates that changed with the parameters’ initial values or difficultly converged. …”

Social determinants of alcohol and tobacco use among Hispanic adolescents: a scoping review by Kazi Priyanka Silmi, Victoria Castillo, Nallely Segura, Nayeli Carrillo Cervantes, Yailene Perez, Aubrey Valenzuela, Erika A. Pugh, Jennifer B. Unger, Marybel R. Gonzalez

“…While the psychosocial factors associated with ATU among Hispanic adolescents have been investigated for decades, the social environments for youth have undergone considerable change over time. The aim of this scoping review was to examine how social determinants of health (SDOH) influence ATU among Hispanic adolescents and to assess the extent to which mental health variables are integrated into these studies.MethodsWe conducted a systematic, reproducible search on PubMed, PsycInfo, and Scopus for empirical research articles published that examined the SDOH of ATU among Hispanic/Latino/a/x adolescents in the U.S. …”

A Meta-Analysis of the Cross-Sectional and Longitudinal Relations Between Executive Functioning and Math in Early Childhood by Jane E. Hutchison, Bijan Tabrizian, Nina Bajnauth, Ander Avdellas, Deborah Phillips, Ian M. Lyons

“…We then examined whether the strength of the EF-Math relation in this age-range depends on measurement factors, socio-economic status (SES), and the nature and direction of longitudinal relations. [1] Overall achievement measures of EF and math generally led to higher estimates of the EF-Math relation relative to measures of isolated EF subprocesses or specific math skills, though this may be due more to measurement than developmental factors. [2] EF measures using numerical stimuli inflate estimates of the EF-Math association by roughly 40%. [3] Low SES samples showed the strongest average EF-Math associations. [4] Longitudinal associations that do not adjust for Time-1 measurement of the outcome variable lead to inflated (as much as 120%) estimates of directional associations. …”
