  • Prevalence and patterns of multiple long-term conditions among lymphatic filariasis patients in Odisha, India

    Open AccessAbhinav Sinha, Prakash Kumar Sahoo et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2025

    We observed a high prevalence of MLTC among people with lymphatic filariasis. The findings of this study will not only be useful for both resource and planning in India but also in similar LMICs with a high burden of lymphatic filariasis

  • The Use of Diversity Analysis to Assess the Relative Influence of Factors Affecting the Income Distribution

    Tapan K Nayak, Joseph L GastwirthARTICLEJournal of Business and Economic…1989

    This article uses diversity measures based on quadratic entropy to analyze the relative effects of factors such as age, sex, and education on the income distribution. In particular, sex appears to be as important as education in explaining the overall income inequality in the data collected by the U.S. Bureau of the Census. An advantage of the diversity measures is that they possess a decomposition of the total inequality into between-group and w…

  • Large Sample Theory for the Bounds on the Gini and Related Indices of Inequality Estimated From Grouped Data

    Joseph L Gastwirth, Tapan K Nayak et al.ARTICLEJournal of Business and Economic…1986

    The joint asymptotic distribution of the upper and lower bounds for the Gini index derived by Gastwirth for grouped data are obtained. From them a conservative asymptotically distribution-free confidence interval for the population Gini index is presented. The methods also yield similar results for other indices of inequality (e.g., Theil's and Atkinson's)
