slightly sensitive to model misspecification, and therefore, according to them, fitting any model of the Gompertz family is sufficient to model these measures.Footnote1Life expectancy has improved substantially in the last few decades, as attention to health concerns and reduction of infant and child ...
while a substantial body of literature has explored similar topics, South Asia has not been extensively examined in scholarly research, particularly, in the context of a precise and policy-oriented
Inequities in the distribution of and access to maternal and child health care services is pervasive in Ghana. Understanding the drivers of inequity in maternal and child health (MCH) is important to achieving the universal health coverage component of t
Despite the broad role of B-type lamins in physiology, the essentiality and redundancy of these proteins pose a formidable challenge to understanding their distinct role in regulating cell function. To overcome this limitation, we implemented the auxin-inducible degron system to degrade both B-type ...
Once the Heckman selection equation is estimated, the residuals (error term) from this equation are used to form a new variable called the Inverse Mills Ratio (IMR). The formula to create the IMR variable depends on the distributional assumption in the outcome equation. In most HRQL applications...
All treatment information was maintained in a blinded form until after the database was locked and all queries were resolved. Efficacy Measurements The primary efficacy end point was the percentage of subjects who responded at the 2-hour postmedication assessment, where response was defined as a ...
Excludes oil shales/kerogen extracted in solid form. ◆Less than 0.05%. Note: Annual changes and shares of total are calculated using thousand barrels daily figures. Growth rates are adjusted for leap years. bp Statistical Review of World Energy 2022 15 Oil: Production in million tonnes...
The knowledge about the process kinetics for nattokinase production is of great impact on the economics in large scale operations. Till date, few reports were available in the literature on the development of a simple kinetic model in order to investigate the correlation among growth, production ...
First, it estimates a probit model for the discrete decision (selection model) to adopt Zai technology, and then predicted values of the dependent variable from the probit model are generated and used as a controlling factor called the inverse mills ratio (IMR). The IMR is then used as an ...
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the vast differences in approaches to the control and containment of coronavirus across the world and has demonstrated the varied success of such approaches in minimizing the transmission of coronavirus. Whil
