COVID-19 Hypercoagulability Association with Serum Levels of Homocysteine and SCUBE-1 by Ibraheem Taha, Ibrahim Mahmood, Qasim Al-Mayah

“…Homocysteine and SCUBE-1 are plasma biomarkers; their abnormal levels are relatable to coagulation as a cause or an effect.Objectives: To investigate the association of homocysteine and SCUBE-1 with COVID-19–associated hypercoagulability.Materials and Methods: This is a cross-sectional study with ninety adult COVID-19 patients with variable severity. Patients were classified according to D-dimer level at the time of hospital admission into two groups: with and without hypercoagulability. …”

Strong reciprocal dependencies as exceptions when correlations are weak by M. M. Basimov

“…It is built on the basis of a dependence that is far from linear, as shown by Pearson’s coefficient of weak correlation equal to 0.28. At the same time, founded on the rule for interpreting the absolute value of the correlation coefficient for a sample of 120 subjects (widely used in the psychological community), it indicates the significance of the relationship at the p = 0.01 level, which inevitably requires a linear interpretation. …”

A Multi‐Model Ensemble of Baseline and Process‐Based Models Improves the Predictive Skill of Near‐Term Lake Forecasts by Freya Olsson, Tadhg N. Moore, Cayelan C. Carey, Adrienne Breef‐Pilz, R. Quinn Thomas

“…The utility of MMEs is highlighted by two results: (a) no individual model performed best at every depth and horizon (days in the future), and (b) MMEs avoided poor performances by rarely producing the worst forecast for any single forecasted period (<6% of the worst ranked forecasts over time). This work presents an example of how existing models can be combined to improve water temperature forecasting in lakes and reservoirs and discusses the value of utilizing MMEs, rather than individual models, in operational forecasts.…”
