In comparison to children with healthy weight, those living with overweight generated additional costs of £133.93 and £66.32, on average, in the year preceding and following a BMI measurement, respectively, while children with obesity incurred additional costs of £115.47 and £154.51, on average, during the same periods. …”

Measuring the performances of covariates using exponential survival analysis with partly-interval censored simulation data by Muhamad Jamil, Siti Afiqah, Lai, Jessintha, Abdullah, Mohd Asrul Affendi

“…This paper aims at proposing the partly-interval censored data into the fixed and time-varying covariates and measure the performances of Exponential survival distribution using mean square error (MSE), mean bias error (MBE), mean absolute error (MAE), root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) and standard error. As a result, when dealing the data without censored observations, the exponential distribution significantly fit the simulation data since low values of error measurements appeared when the data included the exact and complete types of simulation. …”

Effect of harvest rate, waste loading, and stocking density on the yield of duckweeds by M. Said, M. Zaki, Culley, Dudley D., Standifer, Leon C., Epps, Ernest A., Myers, Robert W., Boney, Steve A.

“…In an outdoor tank culture system with 10 to 20 g/liter fresh dairy cattle manure dilutions (ca 60 to 120 mg/liter TKN), maximum growth of duckweed (Spirodela polyrhiza) was obtained when harvested at 6‐day intervals. An initial stocking of 70 g fresh duckweed/0.14 m2 (505 g/m2) gave the highest yield when the excess fresh biomass (34.4 g) was harvested daily or 33% of the standing stock. …”
