SEASONAL AND METEOROLOGICAL DRIVERS OF HAND, FOOT, AND MOUTH DISEASE OUTBREAKS USING DATA-DRIVEN MACHINE LEARNING MODELS

Seasonal and Meteorological Drivers of Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease Outbreaks Using Data-Driven Machine Learning Models

Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease (HFMD) predominantly affects children under the age of five and remains a significant public health concern in the Asia-Pacific region.HFMD outbreaks are closely linked to seasonal changes and meteorological factors, particularly in tropical and subtropical areas.In Thailand, a total of 657,570 HFMD cases were reported

Deeply digging the interaction effect in multiple linear regressions using a fractional-power interaction term

In multiple regression Y ~ β0 + β1X1 + β2X2 + β3X1 X2 + ɛ., the interaction term is quantified as the product of X1 and X2.We developed fractional-power interaction regression (FPIR), using βX1M X2N as the interaction term.The rationale of FPIR is that the slopes of Y-X1 regression along the X2 gradient are modeled using the nonlinear

Maturation of social attribution skills in typically developing children: an investigation using the social attribution task

Abstract Background The assessment of social attribution skills in children can potentially identify and quantify developmental difficulties related to autism spectrum disorders and related conditions.However, relatively little is known about how these lovesense 3 skills develop in typically developing children.Therefore the present study aimed to

Parental Investment Under Predation Threat in Incubating Common Eiders (Somateria mollissima): A Hormonal Perspective

Predation risk affects the costs and benefits of prey life-history decisions.Predation threat is often higher during reproduction, especially in conspicuous colonial breeders.Therefore, predation risk may increase the survival cost of breeding, and reduce parental investment.The impact of predation risk on avian parental investment decisions may be
