Area of Science:

  • Mathematical modeling
  • Demography
  • Epidemiology

Context:

  • Infant mortality remains a critical global health challenge.
  • Understanding factors influencing infant survival is crucial for public health interventions.
  • Previous models often lack consideration for biological memory and adaptive resistance.

Purpose:

  • To propose a novel mathematical model for infantile mortality.
  • To incorporate organism-environment interactions, including memory and disease resistance.
  • To assess the model's adequacy using real-world demographic data.

Summary:

  • A probabilistic model is developed based on organism-environment interactions, where organisms remember and resist past diseases.
  • The model's predictive power and accuracy were evaluated using demographic databases from two distinct countries.

  • Analysis includes the dynamics of model parameters over the past century, revealing historical trends in infantile mortality factors.

    • Impact:

    • Provides a new framework for understanding and predicting infantile mortality patterns.
    • Offers insights into the role of biological memory and resistance in infant survival.
    • Potential applications in refining public health strategies and interventions aimed at reducing infant mortality.
