Biometrika tables for statisticians

TL;DR: The analysis of means (ANOM) as discussed by the authors is a technique for comparing a group of treatment means to see if any of them are significantly different from the overall mean, which can be thought of as an alternative to the analysis of variance for analyzing fixed main effects in a designed experiment.

TL;DR: There is evidence that a portion of the soluble fraction of 137Cs and 90Sr inventory in the soil is lost by transport to groundwater when rainfall is heavy enough to cause recharge of the lens, resulting in loss of 137C from the soil column and root zone of the plants.

TL;DR: Biostatistics can be productively applied to cardiovascular research if investigators develop and rely on a well-written protocol and analysis plan, and write results clearly, differentiating confirmatory from exploratory findings.

TL;DR: A flexible Bayesian approach that accounts for age uncertainty inherent to fieldwork data is proposed, developed a Gibbs sampling Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm that produces posterior distributions of ages for each individual, based on a ranking order of individuals from youngest to oldest and age ranges for eachindividual.
