Second, the sample estimates were extrapolated to the population in each province by reweighting the estimates based on the sampling ratios.
First, there are important differences between official statistics produced by national authorities and the estimates based on DHS and MICS, almost invariably yielding higher mortality rates.
When extrapolated to the population served by general physicians, the estimate based on our respondents' report yields 0.15 scarcity-related deaths/1000 population [ 33].
Even under the most extreme possible assumptions, the mean HIV incidence changed by only 2% of the estimate based on the mid-date assumption, as reported in Table 2.
Thus, women who spent a considerable amount of time (≥ 2 hr/day) in nonresidential outdoor environments could have been exposed to a high variability of traffic-related NO2 and BTEX levels, very different than those reflected by the LUR estimates based on the residential address.
By regularly updating the DALY estimates based on the best available data, trends in public health may be monitored over time, and the impact of macro-level policies may be evaluated.
In this approach, the number of QTLs in the population by first making estimates based on the Bayesian information criterion and then QTL location and interaction fitting in the model are assumed.
We examined the convergent validity of distance estimates by comparing estimates based on the nearest landmark to children's homes with a 'gold standard' based on one-to-one interviews with children using detailed maps (n = 50).
The critical velocities predicted by the modified quasi-steady coefficients differ only by 4 5% from estimates based on the aerodynamic derivatives.
