Inflation is a critical economic series, and proper targeting is required for a stable economy. With the current economic conditions that the world has faced as a result of COVID-19, understanding the effects of this on economies is critical because it will guide policies. Recent research on South African inflation has focused on statistical modelling, specifically the ARFIMA, GARCH, and GJR-GARCH models. In this study, we extend this into deep learning and use the MSE, RMSE, RSMPE, MAE, and MAPE to assess performance. To test which model has better forecasts, we use the Diebold-Mariano test. According to the findings of this study, clustered bootstrap LSTM models outperform the previously used ARFIMA-GARCH and ARFIMA-GJR-GARCH models.

The epidemiological characteristics of major trauma in Pietersburg and Mankweng hospitals, Limpopo province.
S Afr J Surg
December 2024
Trauma and Burns Unit, Inkosi Albert Luthuli Central Hospital, South Africa.
Background: Data on trauma burden and outcome varies amongst the nine South African Provinces. In Limpopo Province there is a paucity of data which this study aimed to quantify and characterise the severe trauma burden in the province.
Methods: A retrospective chart review for all patients with injury severity score (ISS) > 16 over a 6-year period (Jan 2015-Dec 2020) at two central hospitals in Limpopo province.
Epidemiology and anatomic distribution of colorectal cancer in South Africa.

Centre for Global Surgery, Department of Global Health, Stellenbosch University, South Africa.
Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the fifth most common cancer in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) and the third most common in South Africa (SA). CRC characteristics in SSA are not well described. The aim is to describe patient characteristics and anatomic location of colorectal adenocarcinoma (CRC-AC) in SA.

Centre for Global Surgery, Department of Surgical Sciences, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Stellenbosch University, South Africa.
Background: District hospitals in South Africa have limited surgical capacity and regional hospitals treat most essential surgical conditions. This study aimed to describe the pathway and time to regional hospital surgical care for persons with general surgery conditions (PSC) in South Africa.
Methods: This was a retrospective audit of all persons referred on the Vula Mobile App to the general surgery service at Worcester Regional Hospital (WRH) from 1 January 2019 to 31 December 2019.
Trends and Disparities in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia-Related Mortality in the United States from 1999 to 2020: Insights From the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Wide-Ranging Online Data for Epidemiologic Research Database.

January 2025
Department of Medicine, Punjab Medical College, Faisalabad, Pakistan.
Objectives: The incidence of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) shows a bimodal distribution, with the first peak in children under 10 years old and the second in adults. It is imperative to understand disparities in ALL-related mortality.
Methods: ALL-related mortality trends in the United States from 1999 to 2020 were studied by extracting age-adjusted mortality rates (AAMRs) from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Wide-Ranging Online Data for Epidemiologic Research database.
Systematics of the complex, with evidence for 3 additional Afrotropical bat species.
J Mammal
February 2025
Estación Biológica de Doñana (CSIC), Avda. Américo Vespucio 26, Seville 41092, Spain.
Roughly a third of all horseshoe bat species (Rhinolophidae: ) are found in Africa, where a recent continent-wide genetic survey suggested the presence of both undescribed and apparently invalid species. Here, we focus on the species complex and the recent elevation of Peters, 1852, to species rank. That action created ambiguity in the taxonomy of East African members of the group-are both Martin, 1838, and sympatric in East Africa or is another, unnamed species present there? Here, we refine genetic, morphological, and behavioral characterizations of and its erstwhile synonyms with samples from the vicinity of their type localities.
