A basic measurement of risk is the probability of an individual developing a disease if they have been exposed to a risk factor (i.e. the relative frequency or proportion of those exposed to the risk factor that develop the disease).
Situation assessment and underlying uncertainties strongly affected decision-making, but there was a mutual interaction between these three factors that developed throughout the different stages of the operation.
Provider notes were also examined to collect information on diagnoses or risk factors that developed after the patient's first encounter.
Dichotomous time-dependent covariates were used to represent risk factors that developed during follow-up; patients were considered unexposed until the time when the risk factor developed and then they changed to exposed.
Put bluntly, multinational companies possess a variety of factors that developing countries must have if they are to participate in the global economy.
Improved disaster literacy achieves these goals by promoting an increased understanding of the contextual factors that develop positive behavioral patterns and social relations.
The cause of OA seems to be an imbalance in catabolic and anabolic factors that develops with age.
Implications for the factors that develop and maintain compulsive checking are discussed.
The calculated lagging variables correspond to environmental factors that develop slowly and not directly measured by the weather station, such as soil water potential and temperature.
SHT dictates the constituent particle type and population remaining in the alloy for subsequent processing, and is thus not only a principal factor in corrosion, but a factor that can be engineered in developing more damage tolerant AA7150.
Similarly, the Genetics of Osteoarthritis and Lifestyle (GOAL) case control study identified BMI as a factor that increased the risk of developing knee OA (OR 2.68), with the risk for knee OA being greater in women (OR 3.23) than in men (OR 2.20) [ 36].
