A dynamic microsimulation method for estimating dementia costs in the United States. [PDF]
Alzheimers DementAbstract INTRODUCTION Addressing dementia's substantial economic burden on individuals, families, health systems, governments, and payers, requires integrating national data and advanced analytic methods. METHODS We described data sources, measures, and simulation methods of a dynamic microsimulation model developed for quantifying dementia costs in ...

Comparing the effectiveness of prostate cancer screening protocols: European Association of Urology- and European Randomized Study of Screening for Prostate Cancer-based strategies. [PDF]
Int J CancerWhat's new? Although screening reduces prostate cancer mortality, concerns about overdiagnosis and unnecessary biopsies have given rise to more tailored strategies. The European Association of Urology (EAU) proposed a risk‐adapted screening strategy combining prostate‐specific antigen (PSA)‐based intervals, a risk calculator, and magnetic resonance ...

The cost of dementia in the United States in 2026. [PDF]
Alzheimers DementAbstract INTRODUCTION Comprehensive cost measurement is essential for an effective policy response to societal dementia costs. METHODS Using dynamic microsimulation, the Health and Retirement Study, and other national data, we quantified the 2026 cost of dementia in the United States. RESULTS In 2026, 5.7 million (95% confidence interval [CI] [5.6, 6.0]

Modelling within a thermodynamic framework : a footnote to Sanders (1999)
Cybergeo, 2000 Many modellers use micro-level dynamics to study aggregate behaviours. Since this approach was pioneered in physics, I call it "Thermodynamic modelling".
