Influence of anionic surface modifiers on the thermal stability and mechanical properties of layered double hydroxide/polypropylene nanocomposites حسب Yang, J.H.

"…Organo-layered double hydroxide/polypropylene (LDH/PP) nanocomposites were successfully synthesized via a solution blending method. As an attempt to improve the compatibility with hydrophobic PP, the LDH surface was modified by the incorporation of various anionic surfactants via electrostatic interaction with LDH cationic layers. …"

Overconfident results with the bivariate random effects model for meta-analysis of diagnostic accuracy studies حسب Furuya-Kanamori, Luis

"…Diaz found that the performance of the bivariate model deteriorates when between-study heterogeneity increases and the number of studies decrease.5 Our simulation studies found similar results—with moderate levels of heterogeneity (tau2 = 1), the coverage probabilities of Se, Sp, and the diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) with the bivariate model dropped below the nominal level.6 Diagnostic accuracy studies usually favor sensitivity over specificity, or vice versa leading to diagnostic 2 × 2 tables with one or more of the cells with low frequency or zero counts. …"
