Fig. 7c gives an example of (1) approximating the prevalence time-course of scabies for scenario 2 without treatment (the relaxation curve).
To therefore generate a rank order of more or less relevant items, we calculated the product of the prevalence times the total proportion of diagnostic or treatment actions initiated by the physician for each item.
The distribution of the circular differences between the optimal treatment time and the peak point prevalence time, and the circular differences between the optimal treatment time and the peak point incidence time, are plotted in Figure 2B.
On average, the optimal treatment time is 2 to 3 months after the peak point prevalence time and peak point incidence time.
YLLs are computed by multiplying the number of deaths at each age x by a standard life expectancy at age x [28], and YLDs are the product of prevalence times the DW for a particular disease sequelae [3].
The prevalence over time is an output of particular interest in epidemiological models, so sensitivity analysis methods adapted to such dynamic output are needed.
We have no data of the prevalence over time.
We have no data for the prevalence over time.
This may support a slight decrease in the prevalence over time.
For instance, Cm=0.025 means that the prevalence at time tm must not exceed 2.5% of the initial population size.
Although First Nations women experience a higher overall prevalence of diabetes in pregnancy, the lack of increase in the prevalence over time is encouraging.
