Epidemiological and clinical characteristics of 99 cases of 2019 novel coronavirus pneumonia in Wuhan, China: a descriptive study
In December, 2019, a pneumonia associated with the 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) emerged in Wuhan, China. We aimed to further clarify the epidemiological and clinical chara...
Soft self-consistent pseudopotentials in a generalized eigenvalue formalism
A new approach to the construction of first-principles pseudopotentials is described. The method allows transferability to be improved systematically while holding the cutoff ra...
Intraclass correlations: Uses in assessing rater reliability.
Reliability coefficients often take the form of intraclass correlation coefficients. In this article, guidelines are given for choosing among six different forms of the intracla...
A Simple Sequentially Rejective Multiple Test Procedure
This paper presents a simple and widely ap- plicable multiple test procedure of the sequentially rejective type, i.e. hypotheses are rejected one at a tine until no further reje...
<i>Ab initio</i>molecular-dynamics simulation of the liquid-metal–amorphous-semiconductor transition in germanium
We present ab initio quantum-mechanical molecular-dynamics simulations of the liquid-metal--amorphous-semiconductor transition in Ge. Our simulations are based on (a) finite-tem...
HTSeq—a Python framework to work with high-throughput sequencing data
Abstract Motivation: A large choice of tools exists for many standard tasks in the analysis of high-throughput sequencing (HTS) data. However, once a project deviates from stand...
Atoms, molecules, solids, and surfaces: Applications of the generalized gradient approximation for exchange and correlation
Generalized gradient approximations (GGA’s) seek to improve upon the accuracy of the local-spin-density (LSD) approximation in electronic-structure calculations. Perdew and Wang...
Comparing the Areas under Two or More Correlated Receiver Operating Characteristic Curves: A Nonparametric Approach
Methods of evaluating and comparing the performance of diagnostic tests are of increasing importance as new tests are developed and marketed. When a test is based on an observed...
Cancer statistics, 2020
Abstract Each year, the American Cancer Society estimates the numbers of new cancer cases and deaths that will occur in the United States and compiles the most recent data on po...
SARS-CoV-2 Cell Entry Depends on ACE2 and TMPRSS2 and Is Blocked by a Clinically Proven Protease Inhibitor
The recent emergence of the novel, pathogenic SARS-coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in China and its rapid national and international spread pose a global health emergency. Cell entry...
