Applications of Poisson-Hidden Markov Model (2015)
Journal Article
Huang, X., & Cheng, J. (2015). Applications of Poisson-Hidden Markov Model. International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Statistics (IJAMAS), 53(4),

Some real discrete time-series counts can be considered as the random variables which follow Poisson distribution governed by Hidden Markov Chain. In this paper, a Poisson-Hidden Markov Model is employed to capture the switching between two states in... Read More about Applications of Poisson-Hidden Markov Model.

Major Bleeding and Adverse Outcome following Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (2015)
Journal Article
Holroyd, E. W., Khoo, C. W., Butler, R., Fraser, D. G., Nolan, J., & Mamas, M. A. (2015). Major Bleeding and Adverse Outcome following Percutaneous Coronary Intervention. Interventional Cardiology: Reviews, Research, Resources, 10(1), 22-25. https://doi.org/10.15420/icr.2015.10.1.22

Advances in anti-thrombotic and anti-platelet therapies have improved outcomes in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) through a reduction in ischaemic events, at the expense of peri-procedural bleeding complications. These... Read More about Major Bleeding and Adverse Outcome following Percutaneous Coronary Intervention.

Seminal fluid factors regulate activin A and follistatin synthesis in female cervical epithelial cells (2015)
Journal Article
Sharkey, D. J., Schjenken, J. E., Mottershead, D. G., & Robertson, S. A. (2015). Seminal fluid factors regulate activin A and follistatin synthesis in female cervical epithelial cells. Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 417(11), 178-190. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mce.2015.09.022

Background:
Overexpression of microRNA-31 (miR-31) is implicated in the pathogenesis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), a deadly disease associated with dietary zinc deficiency. Using a rat model that recapitulates features of human ESCC,... Read More about Seminal fluid factors regulate activin A and follistatin synthesis in female cervical epithelial cells.
