Journal ArticleDOI

Reconstruction of age distributions from differentially private census data

TL;DR: The authors applied a non-parametric method for smoothing with naive or informative priors to age distributions from the 2010 US Census via demonstration data which have had the US Census Bureau's implementation of differential privacy applied.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cost-effectiveness of antenatal multiple micronutrients and balanced energy protein supplementation compared to iron and folic acid supplementation in India, Pakistan, Mali, and Tanzania: A dynamic microsimulation study

TL;DR: The cost-effectiveness of MMS and BEP with IFA is compared to quantify their benefits in 4 countries with considerable prevalence of maternal undernutrition to observe that MMS + targeted BEP averts more DALYs than universal MMS alone while remaining cost-effective.
Journal ArticleDOI

Frequency of HIV serodifferent couples within TB-affected households in a setting with a high burden of HIV-associated TB

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors compared the proportions of HIV serodifferent couples in TB-affected households and in the general population of Kampala, Uganda, and found that the proportion of HIV-serodifference among couples identified in the trial was significantly higher than among couples in the UAIS (15.7% vs. 8%, p = 0.039).
Journal ArticleDOI

Cost-Effectiveness of Multiple Micronutrients and Balanced-Energy Protein Supplementation During Antenatal Care in India, Pakistan, Mali and Tanzania: A Dynamic Microsimulation

TL;DR: As countries start to invest in replacing IFA with MMS in alignment with recent WHO guidelines, co-implementing targeted-BEP offers a worthwhile and cost-effective strategy that should be considered at the same time to maximise benefits and synergize programme implementation.
