Four multilevel logistic analyses (youth within group) tested whether self-identification as (1) heterosexual, (2) lesbian or (3) other sexual minority was related to participants having sent or received sext messages, received unwanted sexually explicit digital pictures, and felt scared or ...
Evidence map: The evidence map illustrates the main categorized imputation methods, which are classified into four groups, and various types of structures for missing values assumed in seven cases ((mechanism, pattern, ratio of missing values), (mechanism, pattern), (mechanism, ratio of missing va...
Four external experts were consulted and participated in the proposed classifications. These classifications represent important structural, contextual, behavioural, biomedical, service approaches, risk groups and combinations of these (see Additional file 1). There are important areas of research such as ...
In the first step, an initial coding frame was generated containing data both relevant and irrelevant to the research question to avoid bias when selecting the relevant parts of the material. The criteria for considering the data relevant were: (a) the attribute was a core attribute of the exc...
There are several US datasets, mostly public survey-based surveillance data, that can be used to extract insights on diverse populations (e.g., racial, ethnic, sexual/gender minority groups) and to assess health equity and/or social determinants [44,45,46,47]. However in order to develop ...
Priority setting which involves stakeholders such as communities, seldom heard groups and those experiencing poorer health outcomes, for example people from ethnic minority backgrounds [8, 9], can help to address inequality by ensuring that these groups voices are listened to and acted upon. Many ...
Malaria-naïve adults (n = 30) 18–45 years of age were randomly assigned to one of five treatment groups, four dose groups of Sanaria®PfSPZ Challenge (7G8) or one dose group of PfSPZ Challenge (NF54), all administered intravenously (IV) by direct venous inoculation (ClinicalTria...
(criterion A from DSM-5) and probable diagnosis. We used the training dataset to select the best training configuration. We augmented the training size using the synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE64) because we have an under-represented label (label: no PTSD). Then we computed ...
The failure of classical machines could be due to the unique nature of the data such as the considerable imbalanced size of the groups, significant overlap in the distribution of features in the two protein classes, and high dimensionality. The mentioned limitations were addressed by developing mGM...
network performance was evaluated. In the validation and test sets, 93, and 553 brain infarcts were present, with a median volume of 0.4 ml (range 0.072–282 ml) and 0.44 ml (range 0.036–156 ml), respectively. For these sets, the entire brain was sampled, using a stride of four ...
