Book Case Studies in Bayesian Statistics

Download or read book Case Studies in Bayesian Statistics written by Constantine Gatsonis and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 4th Workshop on Case Studies in Bayesian Statistics was held at the Car negie Mellon University campus on September 27-28, 1997. As in the past, the workshop featured both invited and contributed case studies. The former were presented and discussed in detail while the latter were presented in poster format. This volume contains the four invited case studies with the accompanying discus sion as well as nine contributed papers selected by a refereeing process. While most of the case studies in the volume come from biomedical research the reader will also find studies in environmental science and marketing research. INVITED PAPERS In Modeling Customer Survey Data, Linda A. Clark, William S. Cleveland, Lorraine Denby, and Chuanhai LiD use hierarchical modeling with time series components in for customer value analysis (CVA) data from Lucent Technologies. The data were derived from surveys of customers of the company and its competi tors, designed to assess relative performance on a spectrum of issues including product and service quality and pricing. The model provides a full description of the CVA data, with random location and scale effects for survey respondents and longitudinal company effects for each attribute. In addition to assessing the performance of specific companies, the model allows the empirical exploration of the conceptual basis of consumer value analysis. The authors place special em phasis on graphical displays for this complex, multivariate set of data and include a wealth of such plots in the paper.

Book Population Pharmacokinetics

Download or read book Population Pharmacokinetics written by Ekaterina Gibiansky and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work is devoted to the application and further development of modern statistical methods to study pharmacokinetics of drugs. Specifically, it deals with applications and development of repeated measures analysis, so called 'population approach' methods, in the field of pharmacokinetics. hi the first part of the thesis, a new, model-free approach is developed and tested. It introduces a model-free measure of patient's exposure to drugs, and then investigates the relationships between the exposure level and covariates using various statistical techniques. Classification tree models (CART) and regression analysis are used to study various subpopulations of interest. It is shown, via simulations, that the model-free method is capable to identify predictors of exposure in a wide range of variability in the data. The non-linear mixed effect modelling is used to confirm the results of the model-free investigation. Model-free approach is successfully applied to several drugs. Non-linear Mixed Effects population models developed for the same data agree with its results. Limits of the new method are also identified. Specifically, it does not allow the estimation of the variability: either the within-subject (intra-individual) variability in response, or between-subject (inter-individual) variability of the pharmacokinetic parameters in the population. The second part of the thesis is devoted to applications of the Non-linear Mixed Effect methodology to population pharmacokinetics and dose-response analysis. Population pharmacokinetic and dose-response models of several drugs are developed. Pharmacokinetic models allow for complete characterisation of the drug's pharmacokinetics and its relationships to safety and efficacy. The developed models are used to explore the relationships between the exposure (individual Bayes estimates) and demographic predictors of exposure, and safety and efficacy of the drug. Finally, the developed models are used in simulations to guide the design of new studies.

Book Pharmacokinetics and Drug Interactions in the Elderly and Special Issues in Elderly African American Populations

Download or read book Pharmacokinetics and Drug Interactions in the Elderly and Special Issues in Elderly African American Populations written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1997-08-25 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reports in the popular press about the increasing longevity of Americans and the aging of the baby boom generation are constant reminders that the American population is becoming older. Consequently, an issue of growing medical, health policy, and social concern is the appropriate and rational use of medications by the elderly. Although becoming older does not necessarily correlate with increasing illness, aging is associated with anatomical and physiological changes that affect how medications are metabolized by the body. Furthermore, aging is often related to an increased frequency of chronic illness (often combined with multiple health problems) and an increased use of medications. Thus, a better understanding of the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of drugs; of the physiologic responses to those medications; as well as of the interactions among multiple medications is crucial for improving the health of older people.

Book Rational Therapeutics for Infants and Children

Download or read book Rational Therapeutics for Infants and Children written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2000-04-07 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Institute of Medicine's (IOM's) Roundtable on Research and Development of Drugs, Biologics, and Medical Devices evolved from the Forum on Drug Development, which was established in 1986. Sponsor representatives and IOM determined the importance of maintaining a neutral setting for discussions regarding long-term and politically sensitive issues justified the need to revise and enhance past efforts. The new Roundtable is intended to be a mechanism by which a broad group of experts from the public* and private sectors can be convened to conduct a dialogue and exchange information related to the development of drugs, biologics, and medical devices. Members have expertise in clinical medicine, pediatrics, clinical pharmacology, health policy, health insurance, industrial management, and product development; and they represent interests that address all facets of public policy issues. From time to time, the Roundtable requests that a workshop be conducted for the purpose of exploring a specific topic in detail and obtaining the views of additional experts. The first workshop for the Roundtable was held on April 14 and 15, 1998, and was entitled Assuring Data Quality and Validity in Clinical Trials for Regulatory Decision Making. The summary on that workshop is available from IOM. This workshop summary covers the second workshop, which was held on May 24 and 25, 1999, and which was aimed at facilitating the development and proper use of drugs, biologics, and medical devices for infants and children. It explores the scientific underpinnings and clinical needs, as well as the regulatory, legal, and ethical issues, raised by this area of research and development.
