Cost–effectiveness of cetuximab combined with radiotherapy versus radiotherapy alone in locally advanced head and neck cancer in Spain by Ruth Alvarez Cabellos, Jon Cacicedo, Susana Redondo Capafons, Heidi De los Santos Real, Miriam Brines Julian, Dario Rubio-Rodriguez, Carlos Rubio-Terres

“…The incremental cost per QALY gain was €18,303 (95% CI: €18,243–18,354) with a probability of cost–effectiveness of 65.4% for a willingness to pay of €30,000 per QALY gained. …”

Life historytraits of Sirex Noctilio F. (Hymenoptera: Siricidae) canexplain outbreaks independently of environmental factors by Juan Pablo Aparicio, Juan Carlos Corley, Jorge Eduardo Rabinovich

“…Specifically we show that limited dispersalmay not only increase population persistence but also create theconditions for eruptive dynamics. When the probability of longdistance dispersal is greater than zero, but relatively small($P_{LDD}$= 0.1) large outbreaks are the norm, with all of thesuitable trees dead at the end of the simulation. …”

STAR‐ESDM: A Generalizable Approach to Generating High‐Resolution Climate Projections Through Signal Decomposition by Katharine Hayhoe, Ian Scott‐Fleming, Anne Stoner, Donald J. Wuebbles

“…It uses signal processing combined with Fourier filtering and kernel density estimation techniques to decompose and smooth any quasi‐Gaussian time series, gridded or point‐based, into multi‐decadal long‐term means and/or trends; static and dynamic annual cycles; and probability distributions of daily variability. Long‐term predictor trends are bias‐corrected and predictor components used to map predictand components to future conditions. …”
