It must also be noted that, in addition to estimating vulnerability to poverty, a major contribution of the current study lies in estimating the relationship that exist between vulnerability and health status which has received very little attention, especially in developing countries.
For Zimbabwe, most incidence estimates that do exist are not from population-based studies, so may be biased and/or are recent, and therefore likely to be well after the peak in infections occurred.[5] [7] In the absence of an extended time-series of empirical measurements, other approaches are needed to estimate incidence.
Even the estimates that do exist are difficult to interpret because of methodological differences between countries and over time within countries (3).
Enforcing the law, called Proposition D, is no small task given the estimated 800 pot shops that exist across the city, according to the city attorney's figures.
In this article, we argue that both of these viewpoints fail to take sufficient account of the problems that exist in estimating low effects and low-effect doses.
These analyses have been conducted to estimate the independent associative risks that exist between indices of interdialytic fluid accumulation and dialytic fluid removal with clinical outcomes, particularly, incident CV events and deaths.
PEV provides insight into the amount of error in the genomic estimates of F that exists due to the finite sampling of SNPs; as SNPs become more dense and linkage disequilibrium increases between markers (as occurs with larger Ne), the PEV should decrease.
Of the estimated 30 creek systems that existed in the watershed before 19th-century settlement, fewer than a dozen remain above-ground or free-flowing.
This representation is the best estimate for the network that exists in most cells in the plant.
The aim of this paper is to estimate the imperfect information that exists on the amount paid informally to medical staff for inpatient health care and measure its effect on the actual amount paid.
