The study aims to examine factors that influence the adoption-diffusion process of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM) across manufacturing, wholesale trade, retail and transportation industries India. As part this study, eleven constructs stages AI SCRM were identified examined. A survey was conducted collect data from supply chain executives, risk professionals...

The transferability of a measurement protocol from one laboratory to another is an important feature of any mature, standardised protocol. The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR)-tooth dosimetry technique that was developed in Scientific Center for Radiation Medicine, AMS, Ukraine (SCRM) for routine dosimetry of Chernobyl liquidators has demonstrated consistent results in several inter-labora...

BACKGROUND Aspirin has been considered to be beneficial in preventing cardiovascular diseases and cancer. Several pharmaco-epidemiology cohort studies have shown protective effects of aspirin on diseases using various statistical methods, with the Cox regression model being the most commonly used approach.

BACKGROUND Survival analysis methods such as the Kaplan-Meier method, log-rank test, and Cox proportional hazards regression (Cox regression) are commonly used to analyze data from randomized withdrawal studies in patients with major depressive disorder. However, unfortunately, such common methods may be inappropriate when a long-term censored relapse-free time appears in data as the methods as...

It is common for large population-based surveys to select a sample from a population using a complex design. A simulation study was conducted to compare the estimates from the stratified proportional hazards model with the weighted estimates of the Binder method, when a stratified random sample of the population is used. The SAS PHREG procedure performs regression analysis of survival data base...
