Background: The identification of key factors that systematically influence a team's success is important and has led to the application of statistical models in sport. Predicting the outcome of a One Day International (ODI) cricket match, using only pre-match covariates, has been minimally investigated.
Objectives: This research sought to investigate the impact that venue, toss outcome, toss decision, and match type have on the chances of winning an ODI match.
Methods: A total of 1228 men's international ODI matches were analysed. A logistic regression model was used to identify the significance of these pre-match covariates on the result of the matches.
Results: The results varied across all teams, suggesting that there are individualised factors driving these differences and that generalising the impact pre-match covariates have in every team is unrealistic. New Zealand and India displayed a significant home advantage effect, whereas Australia had a strong tendency towards a significant disadvantage when they won the toss. However, for most teams, toss outcome, toss decision, and match type did not significantly impact the outcome of an ODI match.
Conclusion: New Zealand and Australia were the most predictable teams, whereas South Africa and Pakistan were regarded as unpredictable when pre-match covariates were used to forecast the outcome of their ODI matches.

Investigating disparities in smoking cessation treatment for veterans with multiple sclerosis: A national analysis.
Brain Behav
May 2024
Durham VA Health Care System, Durham, North Carolina, USA.
Background And Aims: Smoking is a risk factor for multiple sclerosis (MS) development, symptom burden, decreased medication efficacy, and increased disease-related mortality. Veterans with MS (VwMS) smoke at critically high rates; however, treatment rates and possible disparities are unknown. To promote equitable treatment, we aim to investigate smoking cessation prescription practices for VwMS across social determinant factors.

Analysis of the Relationship between Sleep Duration and Body Mass Index in a South Korean Adult Population: A Propensity Score Matching Approach.
J Lifestyle Med
July 2017
Research Committee, Korea Institute for Health and Welfare Policy, Seoul, Korea.
Background: One-third of the present adults in South Korea are obese, and previous studies have demonstrated that sleep duration is considered a risk factor for obesity. Hence, I assessed the relationship between sleep duration and body mass index in a South Korean adult population.
Methods: This cross-sectional study consists of a representative sample of 4,218 South Korean adults (20-64 years) who participated in the sixth Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2015).
Physical Performance During Water-Polo Matches: The Effect of the Players' Competitive Level.

The purpose of the study was to compare playing intensity and performance changes within a water-polo match in players of different competitive levels. High-level (n = 7) and lower-level (n = 7) players performed a progressively increasing speed test of 5 x 200 m swimming and speed corresponding to lactate concentration of 4.0, 5.

Objective: Probucol has anti-atherosclerotic properties and has been shown to reduce post-angioplasty coronary restenosis. However, the effect of probucol therapy on long-term (>10 years) outcome following coronary revascularization is less well established. Accordingly, we sought to determine if probucol therapy at the time of complete coronary revascularization reduces mortality in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD).
