    According to a 2018 study published in BMJ Global Health, the prevalence within the 0–14 year old group fell in East Africa from 71.4 percent in 1995 to 8 percent in 2016; in North Africa from 57.7 percent in 1990 to 14.1 percent in 2015; and in West Africa from 73.6 percent in 1996 to 25.4 percent in 2017.

  4. Pregnancy over age 50 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pregnancy_over_age_50

    Pregnancy over the age of 50 has become possible for more women because of advances in assisted reproductive technology, in particular egg donation. Typically, a woman's fecundity ends with menopause , which, by definition, is 12 consecutive months without any menstrual flow at all.

  5. Alcohol by volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_by_volume

    For example, to make 100 mL of 50% alc/vol ethanol solution, water would be added to 50 mL of ethanol to make up exactly 100 mL. Whereas to make a 50% v/v ethanol solution, 50 mL of ethanol and 50 mL of water could be mixed but the resulting volume of solution will measure less than 100 mL due to the change of volume on mixing, and will contain ...

  6. Pareto principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pareto_principle

    The Pareto principle may apply to fundraising, i.e. 20% of the donors contributing towards 80% of the total. The Pareto principle (also known as the 80/20 rule, the law of the vital few and the principle of factor sparsity [1] [2]) states that for many outcomes, roughly 80% of consequences come from 20% of causes (the "vital few").

  7. Coefficient of variation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_variation

    This follows from the fact that the variance and mean are independent of the ordering of x. Scale invariance: c v (x) = c v (αx) where α is a real number. [22] Population independence – If {x,x} is the list x appended to itself, then c v ({x,x}) = c v (x). This follows from the fact that the variance and mean both obey this principle.

  8. 100% renewable energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/100%_renewable_energy

    No uniform definition for 100% renewable energy systems has been adopted across the published literature. [10]Recent studies show that a global transition to 100% renewable energy across all sectors – power, heat, transport and desalination well before 2050 is feasible.

  9. Psychopathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychopathy

    Psychopathy has a much higher prevalence in the convicted and incarcerated population, where it is thought that an estimated 15–25% of prisoners qualify for the diagnosis. [50] A study on a sample of inmates in the UK found that 7.7% of the inmates interviewed met the PCL-R cut-off of 30 for a diagnosis of psychopathy. [104]
