The incidence and prevalence of diabetes mellitus and related atherosclerotic complications in Korea: a National Health Insurance Database Study. by Bo Kyung Koo, Chang-Hoon Lee, Bo Ram Yang, Seung-sik Hwang, Nam-Kyong Choi

“…When calculating incidence, we excluded cases with preexisting T2DM within two years before the index year. A Poisson distribution was assumed when calculating 95% confidence intervals for prevalence and incidence rates.The prevalence of T2DM in Korean adults aged 20-89 years was 6.1-6.9% and the annual incidence rates of T2DM ranged from 9.5-9.8/1,000 person-year (PY) during the study period. …”

Straightening Beta: Overdispersion of Lethal Chromosome Aberrations following Radiotherapeutic Doses Leads to Terminal Linearity in the Alpha–Beta Model by Igor Shuryak, Bradford D. Loucas, Michael N. Cornforth

“…Here, we show that the distribution of lethal chromosomal lesions among individual human cells (lymphocytes and fibroblasts) exposed to gamma rays and X rays is somewhat overdispersed, compared with the Poisson distribution. Further, we show that such overdispersion affects the predicted dose response for cell survival (the fraction of cells with zero lethal lesions). …”

Estimation of the Tapered Gutenberg-Richter Distribution Parameters for Catalogs with Variable Completeness: An Application to the Atlantic Ridge Seismicity by Matteo Taroni, Jacopo Selva, Jiancang Zhuang

“…Differently from other estimation methods for catalogs with a variable completeness, available for example for the classical truncated Gutenberg-Richter distribution, our approach does not need the assumption on the distribution of the number of events (usually the Poisson distribution). We test the methodology checking the consistency of parameter estimations with synthetic catalogs generated with multiple completeness levels. …”

Common dolphin (Delphinus delphis) bycatch in New Zealand commercial trawl fisheries. by Finlay N Thompson, Edward R Abraham, Katrin Berkenbusch

“…A two-stage Bayesian hurdle model was used, with a logistic generalised linear model predicting whether any common dolphin captures occurred on a given tow of the net, and a zero-truncated Poisson distribution to estimate the number of dolphin captures, given that there was a capture event. …”

Robust Multi-Frame Adaptive Optics Image Restoration Algorithm Using Maximum Likelihood Estimation with Poisson Statistics by Dongming Li, Changming Sun, Jinhua Yang, Huan Liu, Jiaqi Peng, Lijuan Zhang

“…Our proposed algorithm uses a maximum likelihood method with image regularization as the basic principle, and constructs the joint log likelihood function for multi-frame AO images based on a Poisson distribution model. To begin with, a frame selection method based on image variance is applied to the observed multi-frame AO images to select images with better quality to improve the convergence of a blind deconvolution algorithm. …”

Multivariate analysis of the pressure variation in intermittent water supply systems and the impact on demand satisfaction by Jesús Rubén Sánchez-Navarro, David H. Sánchez, Carmen J. Navarro-Gómez, Eduardo Herrera Peraza

“…The results obtained show that the pressure distribution has a Gaussian behavior and that the hours of service have a Poisson distribution. HIGHLIGHTS A pressure range between 7 and 30 mwc is essential for user satisfaction.; A minimum of 6 hours of service is recommended in IWS systems.; The behavior of service hours is not linear but exponential in its effect on the satisfaction of demand.; Multivariate analysis is an adequate technique to facilitate the decision making in a water supply system.; Pressure variation has normal behavior regardless of the number of hours supplied…”
