Total antibiotic use in a state-wide area and resistance patterns in Brazilian hospitals: an ecologic study

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2020
Introduction: Use of antibiotic and bacterial resistance is the result of a complex interaction not completely understood. Objectives: To evaluate the impact of entire antimicrobial use (community plus hospitals) on the incidence of bloodstream ...

Spatial heterogeneity in exposure to Brucella suis and pathogenic leptospires in feral pigs across New South Wales

open access: yesAustralian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Feral pigs (Sus scrofa) are important reservoirs for zoonotic and livestock pathogens in Australia, but robust information on the spatial distribution of pathogens in pig populations remains limited. We analysed serological data from a systematic, state‐wide surveillance program to investigate spatial heterogeneity in exposure to Brucella suis and ...

A Bayes factor framework for unified parameter estimation and hypothesis testing

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Bayes factor, the data‐based updating factor of the prior to posterior odds of two hypotheses, is a natural measure of statistical evidence for one hypothesis over the other. We show how Bayes factors can also be used for parameter estimation.

Evaluating Bayesian spatial methods for modelling species distributions with clumped and restricted occurrence data. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Statistical approaches for inferring the spatial distribution of taxa (Species Distribution Models, SDMs) commonly rely on available occurrence data, which is often clumped and geographically restricted.

A spatiotemporal analysis of Salmonella bacteraemia in Queensland, 2010–2019

open access: yesInternal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Salmonellosis contributes to a significant burden on global healthcare systems. The impact of this foodborne bacterium is more pronounced when the infection is invasive, leading to bacteraemia and sepsis. Studies on invasive salmonellosis are few, and there is an urgent need to understand the spatial distribution of bacteraemia and ...

Graphical outputs and Spatial Cross-validation for the R-INLA package using INLAutils

open access: yes, 2020
Statistical analyses proceed by an iterative process of model fitting and checking. The R-INLA package facilitates this iteration by fitting many Bayesian models much faster than alternative MCMC approaches. As the interpretation of results and model objects from Bayesian analyses can be complex, the R package INLAutils provides users with easily ...

Analysis of childhood overweight and obesity in Namibia using spatio-temporal quantile interval models

open access: yesJournal of Health, Population and Nutrition, 2021
The global prevalence of overweight (including obesity) in children under 5 years of age was 7% in 2012, and it is expected to rise to 11% by the year 2025.
