To investigate in The Standard Care versus COrticosteroid for REtinal Vein Occlusion (SCORE) Study: (1) incidences of neovascular events and retinal capillary nonperfusion (abbreviated as "nonperfusion"), and their relationship with treatment groups; (2) neovascular incidences by nonperfusion status; and (3) pertinent baseline factors for their potential risk for neovascular events.
32 33 We had two reasons for our choice of baseline factors for adjustment.
Our choice of baseline factors for adjustment was based on two influences.
Therefore, the relative risk of selected socio-demographic baseline factors for lost to follow-up for Hedmark and Oslo are presented as combined (Table 3).
The inconsistency often relates to whether covariate adjustment is appropriate for the analysis and the selection of baseline factors for the adjustment.
After adjustment for baseline factors, for those given PI/r and non-boosted PI, heart rate was 2.2 and 2.8 bpm, respectively, lower than the NNRTI-no PI group (p<0.001 for both).
Our definition of clustering also includes some non-standard situations (for example when patients are grouped according to baseline factors, for example age and sex, and then randomised within these strata).
Components with an eigenvalue > 1 were retained, resulting in 21, 13, 7, and 6 metabolite-containing, PCA-derived baseline factors for amino acids, fatty acids, dipeptides, and acylcarnitines, respectively.
For this reason, only pre-ART CD4 count was included as a baseline factor (similarly for WHO disease stage and BMI).
Unfortunately, many of the baseline factors required for these equations were not available in the East Kent cohort.
