Regression Diagnostics


Regression Diagnostics


$20.62


"Its principal themes, sometimes treated independently, include problem-flagging statistics, variable transformations, analytical graphics, and the spirit of Tukey's exploratory data analysis. Regression Diagnostics. . . combines these themes nicely. . . . The volume is . . . an accurate and detailed portrayal, resulting in a valuable contribution. . . . All in all, this volume is highly recommended not only for systems theorists but also for those sociologists and others desiring an accurate portrayal of feedback concepts. The book is careful and comprehensive . . . and generally brings the reader up to date on the feedback literature." –Contemporary Sociology "This excellent, concise, and practical handling of diagnostic methods suffers in no way from its use of social-statistics illustrations. The 80 pages are as good as anything I have seen in promoting, explaining, and illustrating the diagnostic tools for regression."–Technometrics Linear least-squares regression analysis makes very strong assumptions about the structure of data–and, when these assumptions fail to characterize accurately the data at hand, the results of a regression analysis can be seriously misleading. With Regression Diagnostics, researchers now have an accessible explanation of the techniques needed for exploring problems that comprise a regression analysis, and for determining whether certain assumptions appear reasonable. Beginning in Chapter 2 with a review of least-squares linear regression, the book covers such topics as the problem of collinearity in multiple regression, dealing with outlying and influential data, non-normality of errors, non-constant error variance, and the problems and opportunities presented by discrete data. In addition, sophisticated diagnostics based on maximum-likelihood methods, score tests, and constructed variables are introduced. The book concludes with suggestions on how regression diagnostic techniques

Glucose level a little high… got it down significantly with diet and exercise… came back up… Why?

Doc said avoid Diabetes 2… He said lose 20 pounds… I lost 30… followed strict diet… exercised about 5 days a week… My G.L. went down 30 points almost immediately… Although I have not changed my lifestyle, about 4 months later… it is back up to where it was when I started addressing it… I can’t identify the reason other than Glucose Intolerance or Insulin Resistance…? This is all new to me… does the reversal of progress start within a few months of the initial push to get the G.L. under control? I’m not taking meds now and prefer to avoid them if possible… Any thoughts in regards to why the increase after such seemingly significant progress?

did your progess stop when you stopped the meds?
Glucose control can be very hard to maintain in some people even with the best diet and exercise. You may be one of those people.
Best wishes to you for good health.

Anyone here understand hemochromatosis or have it?

Had an appt with a gastro, had to see the PA, physician’s assistant, and she will not test me for hemochromatosis. I gave her a note listing all the reasons why it should be done. I have a very high ferritin level, people in my family have died young from CHF, diabetes, liver disease, not from drinking, my liver enzymes are always elevated, i have thyroid disease and hypertention, as others in the family do, and i have an Irish grandfather who also died from CHF, and another Irish grandfather on the other side of the family. Anyone who knows about this disease will understand that I should be tested. My brother is dying from CHF, and maybe if I test positive he can get help, if it’s not too late for him. The PA said the test is too expensive. I pay a lot for health insurance and should be tested with all these symptoms. Anyone else have a problem with being denied for this type of genetic testing? Thank you.

My father has hemocromatosis.

what it is, is that your body stores too much iron in your blood for your liver to filter.
Its lethal if you dont keep it in check, but if you get a phlebotomy every 6 months or so, you should be fine.
Dont eat too much red meat, or other foods with too much iron in it, and you will live a long and healthy life.

My father has had it since he was around age 20, and hes age 39 now and is still perfectly fine.

A phlebotomy is where they draw out around 1 pint of blood, and your body makes new blood to replace it, so it has less iron.–

Alright, just read most of that, and i dont know what to tell you about getting the test done.
Cant help with that, sorry.

Fatty Liver (Paperback)


Fatty Liver (Paperback)


$16.6


This handbook examines the most common type of liver disease—fatty liver—and offers a comprehensive plan to reverse the condition and restore health. In addition to providing an extensive overview of the disease, its causes, and tools for diagnosing and determining the level of severity, the reference features a step-by-step path for healing. Among the information provided for those seeking to eradicate this disease—and reduce the incidence of blood clots, cancer, diabetes, heart attacks, and weight gain—is a description of basic dietary principles, menu plans, recipes, and natural therapies such as herbs, minerals, superfoods, and vitamins to heal damaged and fatty liver cells. An extensive personal essay—"Confessions of a Fat Man" by Thomas Eanelli, MD—reveals a true-life example of one person`s emotional battle with food addiction and fatty liver disease. In this chronicle, Fanelli documents how the application of the principles in the book helped turn his health around and details his psychological and emotional strategy—the 10 Ps—to help control food addiction and other addictions that cause damage to the liver.

Primary liver cancer is the third most deadly and fifth most common cancer worldwide (~500,000 deaths annually), with a sharp increase of incidence in the United States in recent years. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cholangiocarcinoma (CC) are the major types of primary liver cancer. Risk factors include gender, hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), cirrhosis, metabolism diseases, diabetes, obesity, toxins, excess alcohol consumption and smoking. Liver cancer arises most frequently in inflammatory livers with extensive oxidative stress due to viral hepatitis which causes over 80% of HCC cases worldwide. Currently, survival remains dismal for most HCC and CC patients, largely due to the tumor`s aggressiveness at the time of diagnosis and the lack of effective therapy.

If you’re a film buff, please help me answer this question!?

This is for my anatomy and physiology 2 class… we’re getting five percentage points added to our grade if we can figure out this film from the clues my teacher gave us. The clues:
1. The movie is a 1980′s murder mystery.
2. The plot has something to do with Ondine’s curse a breathing problem–where the person has to consciously breathe themselves. I doubt this term or the actual medical definition appears in the film. Maybe sleep apnea?
3. There is a scene in the film involving a woman in a pool. He says its suggestive… perhaps its overtly sexual?
4. He also says there are “arachnids” in the film.
5. There is a twist ending

I’ve been searching online forever for clues, for anything, but I’ve run dry on ideas. Ideas I’ve come up with so far is that the film is about a man who commits murders with poisonous scorpions that causes paralyzation of a person’s lungs.

I’ve tried yahoo, imdb, rotten tomatoes, does anyone have any search clues, or an actual name for this film?

Have you ever had a dog predict an oncoming illness…?

This is actually a serious Q…..
I have read about this happening to people with their dogs sensing a problem (seizure or diabetics) but this had never happened to me before….

Last fall we adopted a puppy from the shelter just a cute little mixed breed…and he “acts” differently when my blood sugar spikes — I am a diabetic….In fact my husband is the one who noticed it….Dingo gets (for lack of a better word) upset…and every time he has done it my blood sugar is over 400….

I am just curious how many people have had an experience such as this….
BTW…I love my puppy!
Peace.

my dog will sit and whine at me when i’m low. (also diabetic)
its pretty cool they can sense that sort of stuff.

i want to go to collage then get a good job… i dont plan to have a boyfriend or marrige i could what happens but i plan to adopt… i figure 23 when iam finished with collage and i want to adopt a new born boy i am afraid to have kids of my own becasue of what happened to my sister and it will happen during my pregnancy
what happened is she got pregnant and during that was diabetic and diffuclty during labor seasection couldnt push out in pain but had pills and shots to help
back to my story i want to have a healthy pregnancy but that will NEVER happen but i do want one of my own

1) do i adopt my first child
2)do i have my first child(painfully and scared)

my opinion is give birth to your first child adopt your second do not be afraid to have a child when you do be sure to keep up with your prenatal care you will be fine I say to have your first child to experience the joy of mother hood when you hold your baby in your arms look into his face you will say I can”t believe I created this you will feel his warm little body on your chest and the smell of your newborn baby you will forget about being scared or the pain all you will remember is what you are holding in your arms women are so special you will feel him grow, kick move have an ultra sound so you can have a photo of him inside you with all that going on you won”t even be thinking of pain why I say give birth to your first adopt your second is what you will experience with your natural born unfortunately you won’t with your adopted child if you adopt first then have a bio child you want to be sure your adopted child will not be effect by your bonding to your bio child only my opinion it is something to think about not that you won”t love your adopted child because you sound like an angel Good luck on your choices and keep up your good work and God Speed
