Yu, Zhou | Misleading comparisons of homeownership rates when the variable effect of household formation is ignored: explaining rising homeownership and the homeownership gap between Blacks and Asians | Despite ominous signs of housing market stress in the U.S., the homeownership rate reached an all time high in 2006. The conventional definition of homeownership, which is based on the share of households and ignores the effects of variable household formation, confounds the measurement of "success"... | | 2010-01-01 |

Varner, Michael W. | Human placental lactogen: a predictor of perinatal outcome? | Serial human placental lactogen (hPL) determinations were performed on 806 women with normal and abnormal pregnancies late in the pregnancy. These results were not reported to the clinicians involved. For the study population as a whole, low hPL levels did not effectively predict those adverse perin... | Infant, Newborn; Placental Lactogen; Pregnancy; Prenatal Diagnosis | 1979-08 |
