"distributed Lag Model: Analysis of Air Pollution on Asthma Occurrence"

Many studies have reported associations between air pollution and daily asthma occurrence. Those studies have not consistently specified the lag between exposure and response, especially multiple lags, although most have found associations that persisted for more than 1 day. A systematic approach to specifying the lag association would allow better comparison and give insight into the nature of...

The Impact of Government Education Expenditures on the Human Development Index in ‎Iran: Autoregressive Distributed Lag

In recent years, the inclusion of human development in the country's development plans shows the importance of the human development index for policy-making and planning. One of the important factors that can play a great role in improving the human development index is education. In this regard, The present study tries to investigate the effect of educational expenditures in higher, secondary ...

Distributed lag non-linear models

Environmental stressors often show effects that are delayed in time, requiring the use of statistical models that are flexible enough to describe the additional time dimension of the exposure-response relationship. Here we develop the family of distributed lag non-linear models (DLNM), a modelling framework that can simultaneously represent non-linear exposure-response dependencies and delayed ...

Evaluation of the Relative Risk of Covid-19 Mortality Based on the Number of Hospitalizations in Iran using a Log-Linear Distributed Lag Model

Background and Objectives: The Covid-19 epidemic began in Wuhan, China in the late 2019 and became a global epidemic in March 2020. In this regard, one of the most important indicators of the healthcare systems is the in-hospital mortality rate, which occurs with a time lag of one to two weeks after hospitalization. The aim of this study was to investigate the relative risk of Covid-19 mortalit...
