In both studies, the class with the highest mean level was most likely to develop POAG after adjusting for baseline IOP.
In both studies the annual incidence was higher in females.
The proportion of home injuries and the gender ratio were similar in both studies, however, the higher injury rate might also have resulted from a modification in the definition and from the mobilisation of community members to undertake the data collection.
Since, in both studies, the risk of cancer was higher among younger patients, the fact that transplantation is generally offered in younger patients could, in part, explain why slightly higher risks are observed among the transplanted group.
In both studies, the consistent co-occurrence of high Cytotoxicity Scores or "mycotoxin content" in one or more feed components supports a role for mycotoxins in the disease complex for JHS.
Nevertheless, in both studies the Norwegian population had a higher prevalence of paracetamol use and a lower prevalence of NSAIDs, in particular ASA, and current practice in Norway is in line with a regulatory decision from the 1980s to switch OTC analgesic use from ASA to paracetamol for reasons of public safety.
In APEX and FACT, prophylaxis against gout flares with naproxen (250 mg twice daily) or colchicine (0.6 mg/day) was administered for the first 8 weeks of treatment, and in both studies the incidence of gout flares was highest during the 4 weeks immediately following withdrawal of prophylaxis [ 31].
Both studies reported the high variability in incidence of CDI among hospitals and countries.
In both study periods the highest number of ICU admissions occurred among patients aged between 25 and 49.
Within both study groups, the highest level of self-reported confidence at baseline was observed in the skill area of psychosocial assessment, and the lowest level of baseline confidence was reported in the skill area of sleep-wake cycle management.
