Since a majority of total DJ-1 is attributable to RBCs, we evaluated the potential use of DJ-1 in whole blood as a biomarker of PD.
Alternatively, differences among case group–specific associations might be attributable to exposure being evaluated closer to first reported diagnosis of depression for PRE-E and PRE-B cases than for POST cases, which could be particularly important for pesticides, such as organochlorine insecticides, with marked secular trends in use.
Moreover, human resource utilizations before and after CMPR can be compared to evaluate savings attributable to the CMPR.
Given these limitations, additional measures, such as characterizing HPV types associated with CIN2+ lesions and obtaining vaccination histories, are needed to evaluate vaccine-attributable reductions in CIN2+ incidence among the US population.
Furthermore, we estimated hierarchical logsitic regression models and used the results to evaluate the variation attributable to the patient and to the healthcare provider.
5– 7 In 2005, we conducted a systematic review of all clinical trials to evaluate the benefits attributable to enteral nutrition compared with parenteral (intravenous) nutrition in critical illness.
Without the ability to blind the participants in such intervention trials, the results of any subsequent larger studies intended to evaluate health effects attributable to drinking water would remain controversial.
To evaluate the independent attributable risk factor, a logistic regression considering NRBCs, age, gender, body mass index, APACHE II score, creatinine, hemoglobin, thrombocytes, leukocyte, alanine aminotransferase, C-reactive protein, and the prothrombin time ratio was performed.
To assess correlations between associated factors and treatment outcome of isoametropic amblyopia attributable to high hyperopia in children and to evaluate changes in retinal thickness during amblyopic treatment.
The World Health Organization (WHO) Global Burden of Disease GBDD) Comparative Risk Assessment framework provides a standard set of methods for this and has previously been used to evaluate the annual mortality attributable to urban air pollution and to indoor air pollution from household solid fuel use (Ezzati et al. 2002; Lopez et al. 2006a).
The increases in "recommended" and "any" VTE prophylaxis attributable to the CDS intervention evaluated in our study per our interrupted time series analyses are comparable to the one randomized controlled trial that evaluated a CDS intervention to improve VTE prophylaxis [ 10].
