Reduced mortality among children in southern india receiving a small weekly dose ok vitamin a

TL;DR: The regular provision of a supplement of vitamin A to children, at a level potentially obtainable from foods, in an area where vitamin A deficiency and under-nutrition are documented public health problems contributed substantially to children's survival; mortality was reduced on average by 54 percent.

The Global Burden of Disease Study at 30 years

TL;DR: The Global Burden of Disease Study (GBD) as mentioned in this paper has been used to provide timely, valid and relevant assessments of critical health outcomes for more than 30 years and has become progressively more granular.

India's Integrated Child Development Services programme; equity and extent of coverage in 2006 and 2016.

TL;DR: India’s policy reforms have increased coverage of the Integrated Child Development Services programme at the national level, including for marginalized groups, but with further scaling-up, the programme needs to focus on reaching households from the lowest socioeconomic strata and women with low schooling levels.

Maternal and child undernutrition: global and regional exposures and health consequences

TL;DR: The high mortality and disease burden resulting from these nutrition-related factors make a compelling case for the urgent implementation of interventions to reduce their occurrence or ameliorate their consequences.

TL;DR: Non-communicable diseases comprised the greatest fraction of deaths, contributing to 73·4% (95% uncertainty interval [UI] 72·5–74·1) of total deaths in 2017, while communicable, maternal, neonatal, and nutritional causes accounted for 18·6% (17·9–19·6), and injuries 8·0% (7·7–8·2).

Locally Weighted Regression: An Approach to Regression Analysis by Local Fitting

TL;DR: Locally weighted regression as discussed by the authors is a way of estimating a regression surface through a multivariate smoothing procedure, fitting a function of the independent variables locally and in a moving fashion analogous to how a moving average is computed for a time series.

Approximate Bayesian inference for latent Gaussian models by using integrated nested Laplace approximations

TL;DR: This work considers approximate Bayesian inference in a popular subset of structured additive regression models, latent Gaussian models, where the latent field is Gaussian, controlled by a few hyperparameters and with non‐Gaussian response variables and can directly compute very accurate approximations to the posterior marginals.
