These findings did not change when nulliparous and multiparous patients were analyzed separately, when the definition of patients at risk for depression was expanded to include women who indicated current or past use of antidepressants or when the cutoff CES-D score criteria was increased to 19 or 25.
Additionally, the 12-month arrhythmia-free rate was analyzed separately, when available.
These results were confirmed when patients undergoing quadrantectomy and mastectomy were analyzed separately and when the analysis was limited to invasive tumours.
Similar results were obtained when coronary (HR 1.22, 95% CI 0.82 to 1.83) or cerebrovascular (HR 1.19, 95% CI 0.78 to 1.84) events were analyzed separately, and when cardiovascular events were analyzed in the 459 MORE-CORE participants who were at increased risk of cardiovascular events by previously established criteria (HR 1.03, 95% CI 0.58 to 1.82).
Similar results were obtained when coronary (HR = 1.22, 95% CI 0.82 1.83) or cerebrovascular (HR = 1.19, 95% CI 0.78 1.84) events were analyzed separately, and when cardiovascular events were analyzed in the 459 MORE-CORE participants who were at increased risk of cardiovascular events using previously established criteria (HR 1.03, 95% CI 0.58 1.82).
Similar results were found when groups A, B and C were analyzed separately (data not shown) and when patients who participated twice or more were excluded.
Similar results were observed when each cohort was analyzed separately (Fig. S1 and Table S2), and when the baseline and follow-up LTL distributions were subdivided by 0.5-kb increments: 37.4% of the subjects did not change their rank and 57.8% changed rank by only 0.5 kb (Fig. S2 and Table S3).
Even though no full-sib families were identified in the temporal samples in FIF and UK when they were analyzed separately, in each of these populations one full-sib pair was identified when the temporal samples were combined.
Dr. Dimitrios Trichopoulos, the senior author of the study and a professor of cancer prevention at the Harvard School of Public Health, acknowledged that the study included only a small number of people who had died of coronary artery disease, and that the results when women were analyzed separately, while suggestive of some effect, were not conclusive.
When assemblages were analyzed separately, significant effects of fine-scale landscape context were only detected in one region and for two functional groups (predators and detritivores).
