Risk Factors and Predictive Models for Sarcopenia in Older Adults

open access: yesAGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
Independent risk factors for sarcopenia identified by Lasso regression and logistic regression in the study were BMI, prealbumin, albumin/globulin ratio (A/G ratio), serum creatinine, and phosphorus. These factors were used to construct a nomogram model and a decision tree model. Both models showed effectiveness in predicting sarcopenia in older adults,

Advancing calibration for stochastic agent-based models in epidemiology with Stein variational inference and Gaussian process surrogates [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Accurate calibration of stochastic agent-based models (ABMs) in epidemiology is crucial to make them useful in public health policy decisions and interventions. Traditional calibration methods, e.g., Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC), that yield a probability density function for the parameters being calibrated, are often computationally expensive.

Multivariate analyses of molecular genetic associations between childhood psychopathology and adult mood disorders and related traits

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, Volume 192, Issue 1-2, Page 3-12, January-March 2023., 2023
Abstract Ubiquitous associations have been detected between different types of childhood psychopathology and polygenic risk scores based on adult psychiatric disorders and related adult outcomes, indicating that genetic factors partly explain the association between childhood psychopathology and adult outcomes. However, these analyses in general do not

Epidemiological Model Calibration via Graybox Bayesian Optimization [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
In this study, we focus on developing efficient calibration methods via Bayesian decision-making for the family of compartmental epidemiological models. The existing calibration methods usually assume that the compartmental model is cheap in terms of its output and gradient evaluation, which may not hold in practice when extending them to more general ...
