The population studied by Marsell however was older, had better estimated GFR, and lower levels of FGF23.
Li et al. [6] has demonstrated that gain-constraint-APC (GCAPC) [7] has better estimating performance especially for weak targets compared to original APC algorithm [5].
Although BPE and MLE have better estimate performance than other existing methods, there is substantial room for improvement in estimation accuracy because they are only grounded on a posterior probability.
"Certainly in six months to a year, people will have better estimates".
On the other hand, SPOT 6 showed better capabilities of delineating gaps and boundaries of patches, hence had better estimates of distribution and patch sizes.
However, in this study we had better estimates of exposure than in most air pollution health effects studies using administrative data only.
Having better estimates of small effects may also clarify whether common risk SNPs cluster in discrete molecular pathways; pathway analyses based on current data have been equivocal, although providing some support for involvement of cell adhesion pathways.
Therefore, by including manure management practices (and hence analysing data from fewer farms), we likely have better estimates for these potentially important risk factors for flock colonization at the farm level, and the impact of other variables appears stable.
One difference is that these authors had better estimates of some traits, especially the rate at which animals spread infection, as this is captured in the faecal egg count trait.
