چکیده

The relationship between socio-economic status (SES) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) wasexamined using nationally-representative data from 3 countries (USA, Thailand and Australia).Individual data were obtained for participants aged 35 years or above from the NHANES III,InterASIA and AusDiab I studies. We examined the association between CKD prevalence (GFR <60ml/min/1.73 m) and education, income, employment and area of residence (urban/rural). Householdincome below national median, below-average education, being unemployed/retired and living in ruralsettings were associated with increased odds of CKD (INSERT RESULTS). Lower SES wasconsistently associated with higher rates of CKD across different ethnic groups, however somevariation in effect size was observed (INSERT RESULTS). Income, employment and education areassociated with CKD risk, however the effects vary between different population groups and thisrequires further exploration. Our results suggest CKD prevention and management strategies shouldtake account of the higher prevalence in low-income and poorly educated groups.

An optimal model for Project Risk Response Portfolio Selection (P2RPS) (Case study: Research institute of petroleum industry)

In the real world, risk and uncertainty are two natural properties in the implementation of Mega projects. Most projects fail to achieve the pre-determined objectives due to uncertainty. A linear integer programming optimization model was used in this work to solve a problem in order to choose the most appropriate risk responses for the project risks. A mathematical model, in which work structu...

Project Portfolio Selection with the Maximization of Net Present Value

Projects scheduling by the project portfolio selection, something that has its own complexity and its flexibility, can create different composition of the project portfolio. An integer programming model is formulated for the project portfolio selection and scheduling.Two heuristic algorithms, genetic algorithm (GA) and simulated annealing (SA), are presented to solve the problem. Results of cal...

Multi-criteria approach to project portfolio selection considering structural hardness and correlations between projects

Project portfolio selection is very important subject of decision-makers in project-based organizations.
