    Incentive Compatibility and Differentiability New Results and Classic Applications

    Get PDF
    We provide several generalizations of Mailath's (1987) result that in games of asymmetric information with a continuum of types incentive compatibility plus separation implies differentiability of the informed agent's strategy. The new results extend the theory to classic models in finance such as Leland and Pyle (1977), Glosten (1989), and DeMarzo and Duffie (1999), that were not previously covered

    For a number of years the Iowa Academy has felt a growing need for more effective promotion of science and science education in the state of Iowa. The establishment of a permanent office with a salaried executive secretary is envisioned as a major step toward the accomplishment of this goal. This committee report indicates recommended procedures for making such a move by September, 1967

    Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 as a Risk Factor and Outcome Modifier for Cryptococcosis in HIV Negative, Non-transplant Patients, a Propensity Score Match Analysis

    Cryptococcosis is an opportunistic fungal infection of worldwide distribution with significant associated morbidity and mortality. HIV, organ transplantation, malignancy, cirrhosis, sarcoidosis, and immunosuppressive medications are established risk factors for cryptococcosis. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) has been hypothesized as a risk factor and an outcome modifier for cryptococcosis. We aimed to compare outcomes among HIV-negative, non-transplant (NHNT) patients with and without DM2. We queried a global research network to identify NHNT patients (n = 3280). We performed a propensity score-matched (PSM) analysis comparing clinical outcomes among cryptococcosis patients by DM status. We also characterize adults with cryptococcosis and DM2 as the only risk factor. After PSM, NHNT patients with DM2 were more likely to develop cognitive dysfunction [9% vs. 6%, OR 1.6; 95% CI (1.1–2.3); P = 0.01] but had similar mortality, hospitalization, ICU, and stroke risk after acquiring cryptococcosis when compared to NHNT patients without DM2. Pulmonary cryptococcosis was the most common site of infection. Among 44 cryptococcosis patients with DM2 as the only identifiable risk factor for disease, the annual incidence of cryptococcosis was 0.001%, with a prevalence of 0.002%. DM2 is associated with increased cognitive dysfunction risk in NHNT patients with cryptococcosis. It is rare for DM2 to be the only identified risk factor for developing cryptococcosis. Kidney disease, hyperglycemia, and immune dysfunction can increase the risk of cryptococcosis in patients with DM2
