Topics in kernel hypothesis testing
This thesis investigates some unaddressed problems in kernel nonparametrichypothesis testing. The contributions are grouped around three main themes:Wild Bootstrap for Degenerate Kernel Tests. A wild bootstrap method for non-parametric hypothesis tests based on kernel distribution embeddings is pro-posed. This bootstrap method is used to construct provably consistent teststh...
متن کاملTumor Marker Monitoring
Reduce cost of care An obvious goal is to enhance patient care. We have to remember that tumor markers are not treatments and that the relevance of tumor markers for particular cancers are only as good as the treatments allow them to be. The other speakers have made that observation also. So how can tumor markers enhance patient care? Hopefull~ they can extend survival time and improve the qual...
متن کاملPrevalence of K-RAS mutations and CA125 tumor marker in patients with ovarian carcinoma
Background: Ovarian carcinoma is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death among females. K-ras codon 12 mutations are commonly occurring mutations in different types of cancers and leads to resistance against anti-EGFR therapeutics. Hence, determination of mutations in k-ras gene is crucial for predicting response to anti-EGFR therapies. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of k...
متن کاملStudying a specific tumor marker by a new method and analyzing its efficiency in labeling animals
Purpose: To recognize affective factors in delivering X-ray contrast agents (which have high atomic number) via gallium carrier to liver or lymphatic neoplasm cells. Materials and Methods: Since uptake of gallium by liver has been reported in numerous researches, it was bonded with a contrast media (metrizoate). X-ray imaging was done to determine geometric features of liver. Results: Rad...
متن کاملEvaluating the Expression of Oct4 as a Prognostic Tumor Marker in Bladder Cancer
Objective(s)The key transcriptional regulator Oct4 is one of the self-renewal and differentiation-related factors in cancer stem cells, where it maintains "stemness" state. Cancer stem cells have been identified in a variety of solid malignancies. They are a small population of tumor cells with stem cell characteristics, which are a likely cause of relapse in cancer patients. Due to high incide...
