Currently these underserviced areas are classified based on population (count and density), travel time to a basic referral centre, and travel time to an advanced referral centre [ 19].
There is, however, substantial reason to believe that vital registration data for the early 20th century in the most densely populated parts of Asia, including British India (17 ), the Dutch East Indies (19 ), and Japan (8, 20 ), are inaccurate, suggesting the need for verification of mortality rates by using the Davis method (17 ), which is based on population count or census data.
Treatment efficacy 3 months after the second round of deworming was assessed by calculating cure rate (CR, defined as the proportion of baseline helminth-positive children who became egg-negative after treatment) and egg reduction rate (ERR; formula: 1 – [egg counts after treatment/egg counts at baseline] × 100 based on population geometric mean eggs counts).
Do statistical findings based on populations necessarily count for individuals?
We adopted an approach that intentionally avoids heavy reliance on vital registration data and is based instead on population count data for Japan of that period.
If the apportionment was to be based on population, Southerners argued, then slaves should be counted.
These figures were further verified and modified during the early phases of research based on population information from local officials and household counting.
If the feds revise the count, it would trigger a change in determining state and federal funding that's based on population, including money for schools, housing, food stamps and hospitals.
Although intercensal rates based on population projections are important for timely breast cancer surveillance, these rates are prone to bias due to the error of closure between population projections and decennial census population counts.
