The demographic situation in Penza region under the reforms of the administrative-territorial division in the 1920–1930s by Ya.V. Tereshchenko

“…The obvious unevenness of filling the source base on population movement in the first half of the 20th century forces researchers to develop statistical mod-els and use extrapolation or the balance method to obtain the necessary data. But in light of significant administrative and territorial changes in demographic behavior and composition of the population, general models are not always applicable and can give conflicting results. …”

Cluster expansion toward nonlinear modeling and classification by Adrian Stroth, Claudia Draxl, Santiago Rigamonti

“…Therefore, materials properties must be modeled. The cluster expansion (CE) method is widely used for this purpose, but it struggles with properties that exhibit nonlinear dependencies on composition, often failing even in a qualitative description. …”

Lean Mass Longitudinally Confounds Sedentary Time and Physical Activity With Blood Pressure Progression in 2513 Children by Andrew O. Agbaje

“…This study examined the longitudinal effect of sedentary time (ST), light PA (LPA) and MVPA on BP in 11‐year‐old children followed up for 13 years to determine the confounding and mediating role of body composition. Methods Data included 2513 children from the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC), UK birth cohort who had data on at least one time‐point measure of accelerometer‐based movement behaviour across the follow‐up and complete BP measures at ages 11, 15 and 24 years. …”
