Abstract Objective: The aim is to study the trends in ventricular septal defect (VSD) mortality in children in Kazakhstan. Methods: The retrospective study was done for the period 2011–2020. Descriptive and analytical methods of epidemiology were applied. The universally acknowledged methodology used in sanitary statistics is used to calculate the extensive, crude, and age-specific mortality rates. Results: Kazakhstan is thought to be seeing an increase in mortality from VSDs in children. As a result, this study for the years 2011 to 2020 was conducted to retrospectively assess data from the central registration of the Bureau of National Statistics that was available… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract This study focuses on the novel forecasting method (SutteARIMA) and its application in predicting Infant Mortality Rate data in Indonesia. It undertakes a comparison of the most popular and widely used four forecasting methods: ARIMA, Neural Networks Time Series (NNAR), Holt-Winters, and SutteARIMA. The data used were obtained from the website of the World Bank. The data consisted of the annual infant mortality rate (per 1000 live births) from 1991 to 2019. To determine a suitable and best method for predicting Infant Mortality rate, the forecasting results of these four methods were compared based on the mean absolute percentage error… More >

Abstract The spread of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has already taken on pandemic extents, inuencing even more than 200 nations in a couple of months. Although, regulation measures in China have decreased new cases by over 98%, this decrease is not the situation everywhere, and most of the countries still have been affected by it. The objective of this research work is to make a comparative analysis of the top 5 most populated countries namely United States, India, China, Pakistan and Indonesia, from 1st January 2020 to 31st July 2020. This research work also targets to predict… More >
