Similarly, regional differences in unemployment in the United States are mitigated by the propensity of Americans to move in search of work, as they have done in leaving cities like Detroit for fast-growing Sun Belt locales.
While multivariable adjustment and propensity matching mitigate the effect of measured confounders on the DES vs. BMS effect estimate, these approaches have limited ability to address the influence of unmeasured confounders.
However, Oaks et al. [ 15] evaluated the approach proposed by Hickerson et al. [ 16] using simulations and found that it did not mitigate the method's propensity to incorrectly infer clustered divergences, and often preferred priors that excluded the true values of the model's parameters.
This should mitigate any tendency towards clustering.
According to a new study out of the State University of New York at Binghamton, specific combinations of those personality traits can mitigate or exaggerate one's propensity to addiction.
Despite the dominance of doxorubicin-based AC in other studies, these data support epirubicin as a viable alternative, as originally demonstrated by Frustaci et al. 7. Despite our attempts to mitigate selection bias through a propensity IPTW method, these data are hypothesis generating only.
Our use of a propensity score helped mitigate bias due to confounding by indication, as well as to balance a wide range of cardiovascular risk factors between groups, including pre-existing cardiovascular disease, 4 diabetes, 6 7 8 hypertension, 4 5 smoking status, 10 body mass index, 12 13 and living arrangements.
Comparing to single selective TFC membranes, the dual selective membrane significantly mitigated ICP effects and reduced fouling propensity using viscous draw solutes such as sucrose, ferric citric acid complex (Fe CA) and polyethylene glycol monolaurate (PEG 640ML) as draw solutes.
Pursuing initial non-responders through reminders in case-control studies may thus not be sufficient to mitigate bias if those with a propensity to participate differ in important ways from those who would not participate regardless of how many reminders were sent.
This paper assesses the impact of different types of flexible fiscal rules on the procyclicality of fiscal policy with propensity scores-matching techniques, thus mitigating traditional self-selection problems.
The lack of speed on his second serve is mitigated by the slower surface, as is his propensity to leave an occasional ground stroke short.
