The NIST/SEMATECH e-Handbook of Statistical Methods is a Web-based book written to help scientists and engineers incorporate statistical methods into their work as efficiently as possible. Ideally, it will serve as a reference which will help scientists and engineers design their own experiments and carry out the appropriate analyses when a statistician is not available to help. It is also hoped that it will serve as a useful educational tool that will help users of statistical methods and consumers of statistical information better understand statistical procedures and their underlying assumptions, and more clearly interpret scientific and engineering results stated in statistical terms.

Here, we present FLiPPR, or FragPipe LiP (limited proteolysis) Processor, a tool that facilitates the analysis of data from limited proteolysis mass spectrometry (LiP-MS) experiments following primary search and quantification in FragPipe. LiP-MS has emerged as a method that can provide proteome-wide information on protein structure and has been applied to a range of biological and biophysical questions. Although LiP-MS can be carried out with standard laboratory reagents and mass spectrometers, analyzing the data can be slow and poses unique challenges compared to typical quantitative proteomics workflows. To address this, we leverage FragPipe and then process its output in FLiPPR. FLiPPR formalizes a specific data imputation heuristic that carefully uses missing data in LiP-MS experiments to report on the most significant structural changes. Moreover, FLiPPR introduces a data merging scheme and a protein-centric multiple hypothesis correction scheme, enabling processed LiP-MS data sets to be more robust and less redundant. These improvements strengthen statistical trends when previously published data are reanalyzed with the FragPipe/FLiPPR workflow. We hope that FLiPPR will lower the barrier for more users to adopt LiP-MS, standardize statistical procedures for LiP-MS data analysis, and systematize output to facilitate eventual larger-scale integration of LiP-MS data.

The focus of this report is to describe the statistical inference procedures used to produce design-based estimates as presented in the 2013 detailed tables, the 2013 mental health detailed tables, the 2013 national findings report, and the 2013 mental health findings report. Thestatistical procedures and information found in this report can also be generally applied to analyses based on the public use file as well as the restricted-use file available through the data portal. This report is organized as follows: Section 2 provides background informationconcerning the 2013 NSDUH; Section 3 discusses the prevalence rates and how they were calculated, including specifics on topics such as mental illness, major depressive episode, and serious psychological distress; Section 4 briefly discusses how missing item responses of variables that are not imputed may lead to biased estimates; Section 5 discusses sampling errors and how they were calculated; Section 6 describes the degrees of freedom that were used when comparing estimates; and Section 7 discusses how the statistical significance of differences between estimates was determined. Section 8 discusses confidence interval estimation, and Section 9 describes how past year incidence of drug use was computed. Finally, Section 10 discusses the conditions under which estimates with low precision were suppressed. Appendix A contains examples that demonstrate how to conduct various statistical procedures documented within this report using SAS® and SUDAAN® Software for Statistical Analysis of Correlated Data (RTI International, 2012) along with separate examples using Stata® software.

The performance of statistical methods is frequently evaluated by means of simulation studies. In case of network meta-analysis of binary data, however, available data- generating models are restricted to either inclusion of two-armed trials or the fixed-effect model. Based on data-generation in the pairwise case, we propose a framework for the simulation of random-effect network meta-analyses including multi-arm trials with binary outcome. The only of the common data-generating models which is directly applicable to a random-effects network setting uses strongly restrictive assumptions. To overcome these limitations, we modify this approach and derive a related simulation procedure using odds ratios as effect measure. The performance of this procedure is evaluated with synthetic data and in an empirical example.

BackgroundThere is widespread evidence that statistical methods play an important role in original research articles, especially in medical research. The evaluation of statistical methods and reporting in journals suffers from a lack of standardized methods for assessing the use of statistics. The objective of this study was to develop and evaluate an instrument to assess the statistical intensity in research articles in a standardized way.MethodsA checklist-type measure scale was developed by selecting and refining items from previous reports about the statistical contents of medical journal articles and from published guidelines for statistical reporting. A total of 840 original medical research articles that were published between 2007–2015 in 16 journals were evaluated to test the scoring instrument. The total sum of all items was used to assess the intensity between sub-fields and journals. Inter-rater agreement was examined using a random sample of 40 articles. Four raters read and evaluated the selected articles using the developed instrument.ResultsThe scale consisted of 66 items. The total summary score adequately discriminated between research articles according to their study design characteristics. The new instrument could also discriminate between journals according to their statistical intensity. The inter-observer agreement measured by the ICC was 0.88 between all four raters. Individual item analysis showed very high agreement between the rater pairs, the percentage agreement ranged from 91.7% to 95.2%.ConclusionsA reliable and applicable instrument for evaluating the statistical intensity in research papers was developed. It is a helpful tool for comparing the statistical intensity between sub-fields and journals. The novel instrument may be applied in manuscript peer review to identify papers in need of additional statistical review.

When social science researchers wish to carry out research and choose a quantitative approach, they will collect either new data or existing data and perform statistical analysis on this data. In the modern age it has become increasingly important for social science researchers to be trained in quantitative methods and the use of statistical software to analyse datasets and answer research questions. Modern statistical techniques have also become more computational and so there is a desire for software tools that simplify the research process whilst still allowing social scientists access to the most appropriate statistical methods. In this proposal we build on earlier work where we have prototyped an interactive electronic book (or eBook) system for learning about statistical techniques and performing analysis. An eBook can be thought of as combining the features of a book with those of a statistical package as it contains a mixture of textual information, graphs and tables but also input boxes which when completed write sections of the book conditional on the inputs supplied. We intend to investigate the appropriateness of the new technology and how it may be adapted to be used for various tasks that are commonly performed by social scientists.

Data from various sources are updated in the Statistical Information System of the City of Cologne. The annual statistical yearbook publishes these in tabular, graphic and cartographic form at the level of the city districts and districts. Furthermore, definitions and calculation bases are explained. Small-scale statistics at the level of the 86 districts can be obtained from the Cologne district information become. All levels of the local area structure are presented in this publication explained.

This statistical data catalogue supplements the range of small-scale data. Selected structural data can be called up here in compact tabular form at the level of the 570 statistical districts or the 86 districts. The two overviews provide information about which data is available and from which source it originates. The data itself is provided annually.

Notes:

• Data sources are indicated in the summary tables. When using the data, the data license Germany - attribution - version 2.0 must be observed.
• Some values ​​cannot be given to protect statistical confidentiality. For the data sets of the Federal Employment Agency, these are values ​​from 1 to < 10, for all further data records values ​​from 1 to < 5. This is marked in the data by a * .
• The differentiation of population figures by gender is currently made according to female and male residents. The case numbers of those who define themselves as non-binary/diverse are so low at a small-scale level that they cannot be reported for reasons of statistical confidentiality.
• The determination of residents with a migration background is carried out by combination various characteristics from the resident registration procedure. The data are to be interpreted as estimates. The statistical yearbook of the city of Cologne provides further details.
• The information on households comes from the household generation process. This is a statistical procedure in which residents within an address are assigned to a household as far as possible by querying certain criteria. If the procedure does not identify any connections, the allocation to single-person households takes place. The statistical yearbook of the city of Cologne provides further details.
• The data set pupils* at general schools (spatial location by place of residence) is available from 2013.
• The number of the statistical quarter or district is a spatial location and can be linked to the geodata (see related resource below).
