In adjusted analysis, factors found to be independently associated with initiation of breastfeeding (p < 0.05) were mother foreign-born, supportive friend available (both positively associated); presence of a documented contraindication, maternal tobacco use, and supportive relative available (all negatively associated).
In addition, the effect of demographic factors on the relationship between gain in knowledge at 3 months from baseline and the training platform (on-line or on-site) was examined using a quartile regression analysis; factors found significant on univariate analysis were entered into a multivariate analysis.
The Cox proportional hazards model was applied to the multivariate survival analysis for factors found to be significant on univariate analysis.
We performed multiple regression analysis with factors found to be significant by univariate regression analysis for IHD or CVD and other atherogenic risk related factors (A1C, etc). in three age-groups (Table 1).
In this analysis the factors found to be associated with any cytopenia were female sex, CD4 cell count and body mass index (Table 3).
On multivariate analysis, independent factors found to be associated with increased uptake of implants were; negative HIV status and prior implant knowledge.
However, on multivariate analysis, independent factors found to be associated with increased uptake of implants among HIV positive mothers were spouse approval and resumption of sexual activity.
After multivariate analysis, the factors found to be significantly associated with increased mortality were a higher SAPS II at ICU admission and the existence of a fatal disease as reflected by the McCabe score.
After multivariate analysis, the factors found to be significantly associated with increased hospital mortality were a higher SAPS II at ICU admission, the existence of a fatal disease as reflected by the McCabe score, and a cardiac diagnosis at admission.
On multivariable analysis, the factors found to be significantly associated with LTBI were aged 35 and above [9.49 (CI: 2.22; 40.50)], history of living in the same house with close family members or friends who had active tuberculosis [8.69 (CI: 3.00; 25.18)], worked as a nurse [4.65 (CI: 1.10; 19.65)] and being male [3.70 (CI: 1.36; 10.02)].
On bivariate analysis, the factors found to fulfill the minimum requirement (p-value < 0.2 in this study) were age, marital status, educational level, occupation, monthly income, frequency of seizure, types of drugs, side effects of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) and perceived stigma.
