Of the 25 potential risk factors, we excluded alcohol misuse (7.8%), dementia (1.7%), use of an epidural catheter (2.2%), hyperamylasaemia (3.9%), hyponatraemia (5.8%), use of dopamine (0.2%), and use of lorazepam (0.7%) because of a prevalence rate below 10%.
He said called Zapatero's new cabinet "too pink" and went on to say that following suit is "something that we cannot do in Italy because there is a prevalence of men in politics and it isn't easy to find women who are qualified..
However, the role of sunlight is not all that obvious, because women had a prevalence of pigmentation changes similar to that of men (Rahman et al. 2006).
Because a greater prevalence of p.A213V has been reported in patients with heart dilation than in control subjects, the hypothesis that this rare variant could have an unfavorable effect on cardiac remodeling cannot be ruled out.
Finally, we investigated which of these 19 longevity-associated lipids correlated with hypertension or diabetes, because a low prevalence of these diseases are markers of familial longevity (Rozing et al., 2010).
Especially, the food chain has recently attracted attention because a high prevalence of resistance genes in food-producing animals like poultry was reported; this is related to the high rate of antimicrobial drug use in the livestock sector [ 4, 5].
In countries with large dairy herds and with low BVDV prevalence (e.g. Denmark), the SVANOVIR could be preferred for an early warning surveillance system based on bulk milk testing, because a lower prevalence of seropositive milking cows can be detected (compared to the situation where the Danish blocking ELISA is used).
Because a high prevalence and high clinical severity of SLE are also observed in the Thai population, we examined the characteristics of VDR gene BsmI polymorphisms in a larger cohort of Thai patients with SLE and the relationship of polymorphisms to the susceptibility and clinical manifestations of SLE.
