Age determination, age distribution and sex ratio in mole population [PDF]
Acta Theriologica, 1976 3 Figs.]. The age distribution of four mole ( Talpa europaea Linnaeus, 1758) populations was determined by taking four direct measurements on the inner cusps, above the gum line, of the second upper molar teeth. At the end of the single annual breeding period, usually August, after babies were weaned, a mole population contained five age groups namely ...

Bayesian Estimation of Total Fertility from a Population's Age-Sex Distribution
, 2017 We investigate a modern statistical approach to a classic deterministic demographic estimation technique. When vital event registration is missing or inadequate, it is possible to approximate a population's total fertility (TFR) from information about its distribution by age and sex.

On a model for population with age structure [PDF]
ITM Web of Conferences, 2020 In this paper we study a linear continuous model describing age structure into a dynamics of one sex population, related with the McKendrick model. McKendrick assumes that the female population can be described by a function of two variables, age and ...

Age- and Sex-Dependent Distribution of OGTT-Related Variables in a Population of Cystic Fibrosis Patients [PDF]
The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2015 Cystic fibrosis (CF) causes an exceptionally high prevalence of diabetes that increases with age, especially in females. The glucose tolerance defect is progressive, but a cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator-dependent insulin secretory defect cannot be excluded. The age and sex dependence of the secretory defect is unclear.The objective

High prevalence of antibodies to human herpesvirus 8 in relatives of patients with classic Kaposi's sarcoma from Sardinia [PDF]
, 1998 A survey for antibodies to a recombinant small viral capsid antigen (sVCA) of human herpesvirus type 8 (HHV‐8) was conducted in Sardinia, one of the world's highest incidence areas for classic Kaposi's sarcoma (KS). Prevalence of antibodies to HHV‐8 sVCA
