Therefore, we repeated analyses with adjustment for enrollment area, knowing that such adjustment limited the exposure contrasts evaluated in the analyses.
While anecdotal and qualitative evidence is valuable in understanding women's experiences following treatment, the paucity of empirical studies of larger samples of breast cancer patients focused on post-treatment psychological adjustment limits the ability to generalise to a broader population of breast cancer survivors.
Sensitivity analyses repeated the final model with the following adjustments: limiting follow-up to post April 1, 2004; restricting the data set to patients with HES linkage available; and using only the first infection as an outcome.
In summer, changing clothing played an important role in thermal adaptation, but the adjustment was limited, while opening or closing windows adjusted indoor temperature and wind speed, thereby improving the thermal comfort of the elderly.
Typically, an adjustment "cap" limits how much the interest rate can jump or fall at each adjustment period.
We did not include biomarkers used for dose adjustments as they do not directly predict efficacy or toxicity (although inappropriate dose adjustment could limit the treatment efficacy or cause adverse events).
We conclude that while the increased apoptotic response to endogenous DNA damage contributes to the accelerated aging phenotypes and the reduced cancer incidence observed in the XpdTTD mice, the signature of reduced energy metabolism is likely to reflect a compensatory adjustment to limit the increased genotoxic stress in these mutants.
Therefore, the utility of these scores in risk adjustment is limited to prospective studies including clinical trials.
Thus, the clinical benefit of ototoxicity monitoring and dose adjustment is limited to reducing the progression of hearing loss.
In general, decreased leaf biomass allocation in response to water shortage is an adjustment to limit transpiration and water loss.
