Moreover, our study probably overestimates the contribution of acquisition costs to overall costs because list prices were used to determine acquisition costs.
The calculations in our study thus almost certainly substantially underestimate the contribution of nonacquisition costs to the overall costs of antibiotic therapy.
The contribution of drug costs to the total cost of treatment seems to have increased in France (from 5.5%too 16.1%).
However, the relative contribution of basic costs (range: 79% to 85%) and individual costs (range: 15% to 21%) to total costs in these patients was similar to that of the total study population.
Since the contribution of labour cost to operating cost is very small, the variation in all trends of operating cost, revenue and net present value is marginal.
The contribution of external costs to the direct effects doesn't change significantly among different types of farming, except for specialist granivore, in which external costs account for a large share of the direct effects.
Singapore's unique healthcare system allows contribution of healthcare costs from family members using individuals' compulsory savings, which strengthens family bonds.
Clearly, to assess the precise contribution of virulence costs to patterns of temperature adaptation, it would be necessary to recombine these virulence genes into identical genetic backgrounds, a difficult task with this predominantly clonal pathogen.
Contribution of 8 cost categories to total hospitalization costs was analyzed.
