It is known that if ( ) ∈ is a sequence of orthogonal polynomials in ([-1,1],()), then the roots are distributed according to an arcsine distribution (1 - ) for a wide variety of weights (). We connect this to a result of the Hilbert transform due to Tricomi: if ()(1 - ) ∈ (-1,1) and its Hilbert transform vanishes on (-1,1), then the function is a multiple of the arcsine distribution We also prove a localized Parseval-type identity that seems to be new: if ()(1- ) ∈ L(-1, 1) and has mean value 0 on (-1, 1), then .

Two-step approaches for synthesizing proportions in a meta-analysis require first transforming the proportions to a scale where their distribution across studies can be approximated by a normal distribution. Commonly used transformations include the log, logit, arcsine, and Freeman-Tukey double-arcsine transformations. Alternatively, a generalized linear mixed model (GLMM) can be fit directly on the data using the exact binomial likelihood.

Pneumococcal disease (PD) caused by () continues to be a global public health concern. Monitoring the prevalence and shift of serotypes causing PD is critical for vaccination and local policies for PD management. A systematic review of published work on pneumococcal serotype distribution in the Chinese Mainland from January 1997 to July 2023 was conducted.

Background: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is frequently associated with non-cardia type gastric cancer, and it is designated as a group I carcinogen. This study aimed to systematically review and meta-analyze the evidence on the prevalence of CagA status in people with gastric disorders in the Indo-Pacific region, and to examine the association of CagA positive in the risk of gastric disorders.

We demonstrate that the time-integrated light intensity transmitted by a coherently driven resonator obeys Lévy's arcsine laws-a cornerstone of extreme value statistics. We show that convergence to the arcsine distribution is algebraic, universal, and independent of nonequilibrium behavior due to nonconservative forces or nonadiabatic driving. We furthermore verify, numerically, that the arcsine laws hold in the presence of frequency noise and in Kerr-nonlinear resonators supporting non-Gaussian states.

Background: Subjects with ankylosing spinal disorders, including diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) and ankylosing spondylitis (AS) are more prone to vertebral fractures and frequently present with neurological deficit compared to the patients without an ankylosed spine. Moreover, prevalent vertebral fractures are an important predictor for subsequent fracture risk. However, the pooled fracture prevalence for DISH is unknown and less recent for AS.
