Body Size and Predatory Performance in Wolves: Is Bigger Better? (2009)

MacNulty, Daniel R., Smith, Douglas W., Mech, L. David, Eberly, Lynn E.

Summary 1. Large body size hinders locomotor performance in ways that may lead to trade-offs in predator foraging ability that limit the net predatory benefit of larger size. For example,...

The Effects of Resident and Nursing Home Characteristics on Activities of Daily Living (2009)

Wang, Jye, Kane, Robert L., Eberly, Lynn E., Virnig, Beth A., Chang, Ling-Hui

Background Existing studies on the relationships between impairments and activities of daily living (ADLs) in nursing home residents have serious limitations. This study examines the relationships...

ON THE MERITS OF VOXEL-BASED MORPHOMETRIC PATH-ANALYSIS FOR INVESTIGATING VOLUMETRIC MEDIATION OF A TOXICANT'S INFLUENCE ON COGNITIVE FUNCTION (2008)

ZIP-Code-based versus Tract-based Income Measures as Long-Term Risk-adjusted Mortality Predictors (2006)

Thomas, Avis J., Eberly, Lynn E., Davey Smith, George, Neaton, James D.

There is a well-established, strong association between socioeconomic position and mortality. Public health mortality analyses thus routinely consider the confounding effect of socioeconomic position...

Foraging strategies as a function of season and rank among wild female chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) (2006)

Murray, Carson M., Eberly, Lynn E., Pusey, Anne E.

Among mammals, female reproduction is generally thought to be food limited, and dominance should theoretically afford high-ranking females with access to better food resources. Although the...

Latino Risk-adjusted Mortality in the Men Screened for the Multiple Risk Factor Intervention Trial (2005)

Thomas, Avis J., Eberly, Lynn E., Neaton, James D., Smith, George Davey

Latinos are now the largest minority in the United States, but their distinctive health needs and mortality patterns remain poorly understood. Proportional hazards regressions were used to compare...

Pulmonary function as a predictor of lung cancer mortality in continuing cigarette smokers and in quitters (2003)

Eberly, Lynn E., Ockene, Judith K., Sherwin, Roger, Yang, Lingfeng, Kuller, Lewis H.

BACKGROUND: Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV(1)) may be useful for identifying smokers at higher risk of lung cancer. We examined the association of FEV(1) with lung cancer mortality (LCM)...

Predicting children's short-term exposure to pesticides: results of a questionnaire screening approach.

Sexton, Ken, Adgate, John L, Eberly, Lynn E, Clayton, C Andrew, Whitmore, Roy W, Pellizzari, Edo D, ...

The ability of questionnaires to predict children's exposure to pesticides was examined as part of the Minnesota Children's Pesticide Exposure Study (MNCPES). The MNCPES focused on a probability...

Race/Ethnicity, Income, Major Risk Factors, and Cardiovascular Disease Mortality

Thomas, Avis J., Eberly, Lynn E., Davey Smith, George, Neaton, James D., Stamler, Jeremiah

Objectives. We explored differences between Black and White men for cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality across major risk factor levels.

On Lange and Ryan's plotting technique for diagnosing non-normality of random effects

Eberly, Lynn E., Thackeray, Lisa M.

For linear mixed models, Lange and Ryan's plot [Lange, N., Ryan, L., 1989. Assessing normality in random effects models. Ann. Statist. 17, 624-642] was derived for diagnosing random effect...
