BACKGROUND The theory has been put forward that if a null hypothesis is true, P-values should follow a Uniform distribution. This can be used to check the validity of randomisation. METHOD The theory was tested by simulation for two sample t tests for data from a Normal distribution and a Lognormal distribution, for two sample t tests which are not independent, and for chi-squared and Fisher'...

Abstract. We introduce a generalized definition of parton distribution functions (PDFs) for a more consistent all-order treatment of power corrections. We present a new set of modified DGLAP evolution equations for nuclear PDFs, and show that the resummed αsA /Q-type of leading nuclear size enhanced power corrections significantly slow down the growth of gluon density at small-x. We discuss the...

This paper presents a method for the evaluation of the compound Generalized Poisson distribution, based on the recursive evaluation of two other distributions.

In this paper we have obtained the distribution of concomitant of order statistics for Bivariate Pseudo-Exponential distribution. The expression for moments has also been obtained. We have found that only the fractional moments of the distribution exist. The tables for survival function and hazard function has also been obtained.

When reporting incidence rate estimates for relatively rare health conditions, associated case counts are often assumed to follow a Poisson distribution. Case counts obtained from large-scale electronic surveillance systems are often inflated by the presence of false positives, however, and adjusted case counts based on the results of a validation sample will have variances which are hyper-Pois...

OBJECTIVE An elevated red cell distribution width has been recognized as a predictor of various cardiovascular diseases. Slow coronary flow syndrome is an important angiographic clinical entity with an unknown etiology. This study aimed to examine the relationship between red cell distribution width and the presence of slow coronary flow syndrome. METHODS In total, 185 patients with slow coro...

Introduction: Musculoskeletal growth is variable during adolescent period and reaches its maximum by 18 years, whereas hemopoietic parameters reach adult values by 15 years. After adolescence period, the blood parameters may vary with nutrition and built of the individual. The purpose of this study was to find out any correlation between anthropometric and hematological parameters after the ado...
