(3) Differences in endemic geohelminths – the type of geohelminth parasites endemic in a particular geographic region may be an important determinant of findings from different studies [ 10– 13].
A large number of reports on enterococcal pathogenicity has focused on the presence or absence of these virulence determinants in enterococcal isolates from different origins [ 9- 14].
Public health planners therefore should appreciate that PTSD symptoms could result from different determinants [ 12] and therefore should be able to avail adequate resources for comprehensive care for all the related (comorbid) conditions.
Despite these preponderance of evidence about the determinants of childhood mortality from different parts of the world, the majority of the studies did not consider the potential effects of some of the important confounders in their analyses [ 4- 9, 13, 18, 20].
This discrepancy between results may result from different genetic determinants of trait variation in the populations studied.
List of genes absent in CF-Marseille but present in the other isolates contained only mobile genetic elements such as resistance determinants or integrases originating probably from different phages harbored in the 2 strain populations.
The emergence and spread of antibiotic resistance determinants in the fermenting microbiota from different foods has been increasingly reported and reviewed by several groups worldwide, including ours [ 23– 25], pointing at the need for deeper understanding of the mechanisms for horizontal transfer of AR genes, which are still partially unknown.
Requests for information or registrations for sessions, albeit technically behavioural measures, were not accepted, as such behaviours are predicted by very different determinants from target behaviours (e.g., whereas self-efficacy for requesting information about quitting smoking can be assumed to be very high, self-efficacy for actually quitting is likely lower).
As shown in Figure 1, most immediate to the disease are risk factors, which, in turn, are influenced by drivers or determinants at different levels from proximal or "downstream" (i.e., more immediate to the disease) to medial and then distal or "upstream".
