This interaction is unpredictable and is likely to confound the interpretation of functional maps of the auditory cortex.
Since elevated CRP indicates only that there is "smoke" but cannot tell you where the "fire" is, any form of "-itis" can confound the interpretation of even chest pain.
Subgroup analyses in the test set of four different demographic factors (age, gender, and cigarette and alcohol use) that can potentially confound the interpretation of the results suggest that this model tended to overpredict cancer in control smokers.Plasma proteomic profiling with SELDI-TOF mass spectrometry provides moderate sensitivity and specificity in discriminating HNSCC.
Yet, their profound pharmacologic effects on neural function can confound the interpretation of experimental stroke research.
Thus, the time to presentation and comorbidities that affect clearance may confound the interpretation of biomarkers [17].
Although autoimmune disease did not recur after allogeneic BMT in these 13 patients, disease and post-transplant variables may confound the interpretation of results from retrospective analysis.

Such isotopic variations potentially confound the interpretation of isotopic signatures, and caution is required when construing them, especially when the bulk isotopic method is applied to higher animals.
PET images of the lung, which are usually expressed per lung volume, could confound the interpretation of the disease status, especially in cases with a prominent heterogeneity in aeration.
Non-growth inhibitory doses of α-tocotrienol and its oxazine derivative were selected because high doses of these agents were found to initiate apoptosis and induce cancer cell death, which would confound the interpretation of the results regarding the effects of these agents on tumor cell compensatory response to CoCl2 hypoxia.
Such deviations might confound the interpretation of subsequent findings and reveal the existence of gene-by-environment correlation effects.
