Using previously reported methods [ 30], we were able to convert effects from all these studies except one [ 27] to relative risks per μg/m3 PM10.
Most effects were also in the small to moderate range based on Cohen's interpretation, when converting effects into standardised mean differences.
Models describing discrete PD effects (e.g., treatment failure/success, or the grade of an adverse event) often use logistic equations to convert the effect to a probability within a cohort of subjects.
A further limitation of the study is the inconsistent reporting of results, making it necessary to convert different effect sizes into a common one.
The three studies [ 36, 37, 40], reporting the association between mobility and fractures used different definitions and could not be pooled, and Nakamura [ 37] did not provide data to convert the effect measures from HR to RR. Results from these studies were heterogeneous.
However, estrogen signaling pathways are altered in older women, particularly in those with subclinical vascular disease, in a manner that converts vasoprotective effects to vasculotoxic effects.
My plan was to graft myself to the proceedings, to get a flavor for what happens when some of the world's most unlikely places (uh, Kassel?) are showered with serious cash and temporarily altered — converted, in effect, into micro-worlds, lands unto themselves.
The particular properties of the PS can be efficiently used to convert the effects of analytes into electrical or optical signals.
When necessary, we converted other effect measures to odds ratios by using available data.
Converting the effect of the different studies to E-S enables comparisons to be made between studies.
