Traditionally for univariate case, the behaviour of the maxima is described either by the types-I, types-II or types-III extreme value distributions, primarily known as the Gumbel, Fréchet or reversed Weibull models. These are all particular cases of the generalized extreme value ( ) model.

- Anemia is a major public health issue in developing countries like Sudan, particularly affecting children who face serious health risks as a result.

Article Synopsis
- The study examines the link between JAK2 mutations and unusual venous thrombosis in young individuals living at high altitudes in Saudi Arabia, highlighting the significant health risks associated with myeloproliferative neoplasms.
- Data was collected from two hospitals over three years, revealing that out of 208 JAK2 tests, only 40 were related to thrombotic events, with a low incidence of JAK2 mutations (5% of participants).
- The findings suggest that while JAK2 mutations may be relevant for certain types of thrombosis, their routine testing for other cases, especially when blood counts are normal, may not be justified, indicating a need for further research.
