No new cases were detected between May and June, and despite the control measures, three new cases were detected from July to August 2012.
The overlap between control measures may explain the enhancing effect of combining measures.
We must better understand the relative payoff between different control measures and the circumstances in which each approach or combinations of approaches are appropriate.
Because of the bond between the two viruses, control measures for HBV may have also affected the spread of hepatitis D, as evidenced by the decline of hepatitis D in recent years.
42 43 Trends in strain may have confounded, or mediated, the associations between infection control measures and SAB epidemiology.
Overall, discrepancies in the relationship between declared doping-related opinion and implicit doping attitudes were observed between the groups, with control measures remaining unaffected.
24 While such analyses have explored associations between infection control measures and total MRSA rates, 25 29 we are not aware of any previous application to strain dynamics.
Previous evidence on associations between infection control measures or antibiotic use and MRSA strain-dynamics has largely been from in vitro or animal experiments, 21 38 and mathematical models.
Analyses of the relationship between metabolic control, measured by the "updated mean" HbA1c and including approximately 18,000 HbA1c measurements for each therapy group, revealed a strong association with each of the three complications (26, 27).
