Global estimation and scenario-based projections of sex ratio at birth and missing female births using a Bayesian hierarchical time series mixture model [PDF]

Ann. Appl. Stat. 15 (3) 1499 - 1528, September 2021, 2020
The sex ratio at birth (SRB) is defined as the ratio of male to female live births.

Amazon Forest Fires Between 2001 and 2006 and Birth Weight in Porto Velho [PDF]

Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, July 2012, Volume 89, Issue 1, pp 1-7, 2019
Birth weight data (22,012 live-births) from a public hospital in Porto Velho (Amazon) was used in multiple statistical models to assess the effects of forest-fire smoke on human reproductive outcome. Mean birth weights for girls (3,139 g) and boys (3,393 g) were considered statistically different (p-value < 2.2e-16).
