Initial Prevalence data from GINA<ref name=GINA>[http://www.ginasthma.com/download.asp?intId=29 Global Initiative for Asthma report: Global Burden of Asthma]</ref>.

This variable is calculated entirely from upstream variables listed under [[#Dependencies]]. Mathematical method described under [[#Formula]].
 
 
Formula calculates number of asthma cases which can be attributed to dampness in Europe in years 2010-2050 by using the following:
 
#<nowiki><math>extra cases = (prevalence_total - prevalence_nondamp) population</math></nowiki>
 
#<nowiki><math>prevalence_total = prevalence_nondamp(%damp * OR + 1 - %damp)</math></nowiki>
 
#<nowiki><math>prevalence_0 = %damp * OR * prevalence_nondamp + (1 - %damp) * prevalence_nondamp</math></nowiki>
 
::<nowiki><math>prevalence_nondamp = \frac{prevalence_0}{%damp * OR + 1 - %damp}</math></nowiki>
 
 
 
*Prevalences for nondamp and damp homes are assumed constant, for a given iteration. Fraction of damp homes varies, hence total prevalence varies.
 
 
 
Population data[http://en.opasnet.org/w/Population_of_Europe] included population growth scenarios so they too are included.
 
 
 
Distribution represents uncertainty (mainly of fraction of affected homes).

Scope

Europe in 2010, 2020, 2030, 2050.

This variable is calculated entirely from upstream variables listed under #Dependencies. Mathematical method described under #Formula.

Formula

Formula calculates number of asthma cases which can be attributed to dampness in Europe in years 2010-2050 by using the following:

  1. Failed to parse (Missing <code>texvc</code> executable. Please see math/README to configure.): extra cases = (prevalencetotal - prevalencenondamp) * population
  2. Failed to parse (Missing <code>texvc</code> executable. Please see math/README to configure.): prevalencetotal = prevalencenondamp * (%damp * OR + 1 - %damp)
  3. Failed to parse (Missing <code>texvc</code> executable. Please see math/README to configure.): prevalence_0 = %damp * OR * prevalencenondamp + (1 - %damp) * prevalencenondamp
Failed to parse (Missing <code>texvc</code> executable. Please see math/README to configure.): prevalencenondamp = \frac{prevalence_0}{%damp * OR + 1 - %damp}
  • Prevalences for nondamp and damp homes are assumed constant, for a given iteration in a given country.
