This article studies the stability in probability of probabilistic Boolean networks and stabilization in the probability of probabilistic Boolean control networks. To simulate more realistic cellular systems, the probability of stability/stabilization is not required to be a strict one. In this situation, the target state is indefinite to have a probability of transferring to itself. Thus, it is a challenging extension of the traditional probability-one problem, in which the self-transfer probability of the target state must be one. Some necessary and sufficient conditions are proposed via the semitensor product of matrices. Illustrative examples are also given to show the effectiveness of the derived results.

The new submarine volcano Fani Maoré offshore Mayotte (Comoros archipelago) discovered in 2019 has raised the awareness of a possible future eruption in Petite-Terre island, located on the same 60 km-long volcanic chain. In this context of a renewal of the volcanic activity, we present here the first volcanic hazard assessment in Mayotte, focusing on the potential reactivation of the Petite-Terre eruptive centers. Using the 2-D tephra dispersal model HAZMAP and the 1979 - 2021 meteorological ERA-5 database, we first identify single eruptive scenarios of various impacts for the population of Mayotte.

Groundwater contamination is a major environmental concern in many regions of India, including several districts of Punjab. In this study, a comparison is carried out between the deterministic and probabilistic approaches for calculating health hazard parameters due to arsenic contamination in groundwater in India. The probabilistic calculations are carried out through Monte-Carlo simulations to quantify the hazard index (HI) and carcinogenic risk.

Objective: Varicose vein ablation is generally indicated in patients with active/healed venous ulcers. However, patient selection for intervention in individuals without venous ulcers is less clear. Tools that predict lack of clinical improvement (LCI) following vein ablation may help guide clinical decision-making but remain limited.

: Environmental exposures, such as heavy metals, can significantly affect physical activity, an important determinant of health. This study explores the effect of physical activity on combined exposure to cadmium, lead, and mercury (metals), using data from the 2013-2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Physical activity was measured with ActiGraph GT3X+ devices worn continuously for 7 days, while blood samples were analyzed for metal content using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry.

Introduction: Dynamic Bayesian networks improve the modeling of complex systems by incorporating continuous probabilistic relationships between covariates that change over time. This study aimed to analyze the complex causal links contributing to child undernutrition using dynamic Bayesian network modeling, examining both the best- and worst-case scenarios. The Young Cohort of the Ethiopian Young Lives dataset from 2002-2016 was used to analyze the complex relationships among various covariates influencing child undernutrition.
