Global, regional, and national burden of mortality associated with short-term temperature variability from 2000-19: a three-stage modelling study (Publications)
associated with temperature variability, global gridded temperature data with a resolution of 0.5 degrees x 0.5 degrees were used to assess the temperature variability-related mortality burden at the global [...] assess the global temperature variability-related mortality burden at a spatial resolution of 0.5 degrees x 0.5 degrees from 2000-19. Temperature variability was calculated as the SD of the average of the [...] mortality increased by about 4.6% (3.7-5.3) per decade. The largest increase...

Modelling the relationship between malaria prevalence as a measure of transmission and mortality across age groups (Publications)
from aggregated data over 4 to 5-year periods, which is the typical period that mortality data are available from national demographic and health surveys. RESULTS: Using 5-year aggregated data, associations [...] mortality across age groups over 4 to 5 year periods with clinical malaria more strongly associated with mortality than parasite prevalence. This effect was stronger in children 5-14 years compared to other age-groups [...] prevalence (PP) and clinical malaria (parasites plus reported...
