Bayesian modelling of spatio-temporal dynamics for early-warning and control of severe malaria in Cameroon [PDF]

Parasite Epidemiology and Control
Background: Malaria is a significant public health problem in Cameroon where spatial and temporal heterogeneities in transmission make early-warning and control complicated. The traditional forecasting methods have the limitation that they are not always

Migration-adjusted prostate cancer incidence in China: a population-based epidemiological analysis [PDF]

Frontiers in Public Health
BackgroundChina’s internal migration poses major challenges to cancer surveillance systems that rely on household-registered populations (HRP). Excluding migrants can lead to biased incidence estimates and misinformed public health planning.MethodsThis ...

The estimated incidence of uterine corpus cancers among permanent residents in mainland China using Bayesian spatial modeling [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Cancer registration in mainland China traditionally focuses on household-registered residents (HRR) and does not include the migrant population among permanent residents (PR), leading to significant selection bias.

Improved High Resolution Heat Exposure Assessment With Personal Weather Stations and Spatiotemporal Bayesian Models [PDF]

GeoHealth
Most of the United States (US) population resides in cities, where they are subjected to the urban heat island effect. In this study, we develop a method to estimate hourly air temperatures at 0.01°×0.01° resolution, improving exposure assessment of US ...
