This process yielded four categorizations of the comorbidity index; the full categorization plus three orders of collapsed categorization (eg, Table 1).
The sub-categorization of this functional cluster indicated an over representation of genes involved in the regulation of protein biosynthesis like the 60S ribosomal proteins L13 and L15, the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3, the seryl-aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase 1 and the asparatyl-tRNA synthetase 2 (Table 3).
The potential difference that would result from the correct categorization of this woman would not be substantial, thus we do not feel this significantly biased our results.
The two risk factors of interest were parental history of BEN (yes vs. no) and a four-level categorization of this variable: mother, father, both parents, and none affected.
Functional categorization of this core Aquificae set identified a subset of genes involved in translation (category J; fig. 6) to be affiliated with the Thermotogae (Nelson et al. 1999; Boussau et al. 2008).
Concerning the categorization of this variable, the cut-off of 13 on a scale ranging from 5 to 20 was based on logical grounds (high occupational physical activity corresponds to an exposure to three up to five of the individual items).
Although the categorization of this measurement has been the subject of some debate, many consider it to be an exposure biomarker since the relationship between adduct formation and the onset of a toxic response can only be surmised (Angerer et al., 2007).
Regardless of the appropriate categorization of this factor, or why the clinicians are behind schedule, there was a strong correlation between those physicians who reported being behind schedule and several key practices that our organization is trying to promote, including accepting safety alerts, looking up information on specific medications, and using on-line reference information.
See Tables 1 and 2 for categorizations of the covariates.
These challenges along with presence of divisive data on the prognosis of PTMC urge accurate categorization of the aggressive subset of this malignancy.
This categorization of the 13 CpG sites into three groups was also suggested by the heat map of GOLDN.
