On Confidence Bounds for the Parameter of a Uniform Type Distribution
Abstract: In this paper we have constructed confidence bounds for the parameter of a uniform type truncated distribution. Using the distribution of order statistic, Uniformly Most Powerful (UMP) test has been developed for testing two-sided alternatives of the parameter. Since the confidence bounds and acceptance region of the test are convertible for each other, the confidence bounds have been obtained. Further by using Likelihood Ratio Test (LRT) principle, test and confidence …

THE BURDEN OF EMPIRICAL THERAPY: ANALYZING THE PREDOMINANCE OF BROAD-SPECTRUM ANTIBIOTIC USAGE IN LOWER RESPIRATORY TRACT INFECTIONS
Abstract: Lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) remain one of the leading causes of morbidity and hospitalization worldwide, particularly among older adults, immunocompromised individuals, and patients with chronic respiratory disorders. These infections include conditions such as community-acquired pneumonia, hospital-acquired pneumonia, bronchitis, and acute infective exacerbations of chronic lung disease, all of which often require rapid clinical intervention. Because microbiological confirmation of the causative pathogen frequently takes 48–72 hours, clinicians generally initiate empirical …
