Given that fewer than 3 in 10 eligible survivors are treated with ICDs after surviving an inhospital cardiac arrest, our findings highlight a potentially modifiable process of care, which could improve long-term survival in this high-risk population.
It is not simply composed of precipitation of calcium (Ca) and phosphate (P) but rather is an active and modifiable process in which the VSMCs undergo changes from contractile to secretory phenotype, inducing matrix formation and also attracting local factors that are involved in the mineralisation process.
Baseline outcome measurement in relation to emergency abdominal surgery has not yet been undertaken at an international level and may provide a useful indicator of surgical capacity and the modifiable process, equipment and clinical management that influences this.
The primary aim is to identify internationally relevant, modifiable surgical practices (in terms of modifiable process, equipment and clinical management) associated with best care for emergency abdominal surgery.
13 The primary aim of this study is to identify modifiable surgical practices (in terms of modifiable process, equipment and clinical management) associated with best care.
Aside some more flexible, fast, and easily modifiable processes, several scanning probe-related lithographies (SPLs) also emerged[1 3] as a research-oriented fast prototyping tool[4].
This finding is consistent with past work regarding the role of these receptors in nociception and indicates that ongoing modifiable processes are occurring in the spinal cord that lead to clinical pain syndromes.
The variables used for the benchmarking and quality indicator calculations were chosen because of their capacity to describe clinically important and/or modifiable processes and outcome [ 11].
Other mechanisms include resilience and susceptibility, which are dynamic and potentially modifiable processes that can lead to either reduced or increased risk of disease at particular times; for example, a strong sense of coherence may improve resilience to cancer[ 30].
We believe that SLOS encounters indicate a potentially modifiable treatment process.
There is evidence suggesting that frailty is a potentially modifiable dynamic process characterized by frequent transitions between states over time.
