The development of an online risk calculator for the prediction of future syphilis among a high-risk cohort of men who have sex with men and transgender women in Lima, Peru
(CSIRO Publishing, 2018)
Background: Syphilis incidence worldwide has rebounded since 2000, particularly among men who have sex with men (MSM). A predictive model for syphilis infection may inform prevention counselling and use of chemoprophylaxis. ...
Multiresidue determination and predicted risk assessment of contaminants of emerging concern in marine sediments from the vicinities of submarine sewage outfalls
(2018-04-01)
Submarine sewage outfalls (SSOs) are considered the main input source of contaminants of emerging concern continuously released in coastal areas, with the potential to cause adverse effects for aquatic organisms. This work ...
Agreement Between Cardiovascular Disease Risk Scores in Resource-Limited Settings: Evidence from 5 Peruvian Sites
(Wolters Kluwer Health, 2015)
It is unclear how well currently available risk scores predict cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in low-income and middle-income countries. We aim to compare the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association ...
Predictive capacity of topological measures in evaluating seismic risk and resilience of electric power networks
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2022)
Electric Power Networks (EPNs) play a fundamental role in the wellbeing of modern societies and recovery of societal functions after an earthquake. Risk and resilience analyses may identify useful network characteristics ...
Dispersal and extrapolation on the accuracy of temporal predictions from distribution models for the Darwin's frog
(Wiley, 2017)
Climate change is a major threat to biodiversity; the development of models that reliably predict its effects on species distributions is a priority for conservation biogeography. Two of the main issues for accurate temporal ...
Assessment of predictive models for binary outcomes: an empirical approach using operative death from cardiac surgery
(Wiley, 1994)
Predictive models in medical research have gained popularity among physicians as an important tool in medical decision making. Eight methodological strategies for creating predictive models are compared in a large, complex ...
Performance of cardiovascular risk scores in mortality prediction ten years after Acute Coronary Syndromes
(2019-01-01)
BACKGROUND: The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of the Framingham risk score (FRS) and risk score by the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (SR ACC/AHA) in predicting mortality ...
