In the univariable analyses, the following variables were included: age, sex, BMI, systolic blood pressure (BP), the duration of diabetes (log), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), plasma NT-proBNP (log), serum hsCRP (log), HOMA-IR (log), HbA1c, eGFR (log), hemoglobin, and iron status biomarkers (serum ferritin [log], Tsat, and sTfR [log]).
There was a significant association between the timing of the introduction of solids and the duration of breastfeeding (log rank test p < 0.001).
It showed statistically significant differences in the three survival curves representing the three methods of data collection on duration of EBF (Log rank test - Chi square-63.4, p < 0.001) Mother reported data and data collected through event calendar method was validated against data since birth to evaluate the ability of the above two methods to estimate EBF for six months.
We considered several exposure metrics: cumulative exposure (log-transformed and untransformed), duration of exposure (log-transformed and untransformed), peak exposure, and average exposure (cumulative exposure divided by duration of exposure).
*data are expressed as median and interquartile range The value of BNP was significantly higher in group B than in group A; the binary logistic regression confirmed that BNP was related to higher prevalence of LVDD (Log-transformation: OR = 2.7, 95%CI = 1.3-5.6 1.3-5.6006) along with the duration of diabetes (Log-transformation: OR = 1.6, 95%CI = 1.1-2.9, p = 0.006).
There was no difference in duration of breastfeeding (log-rank test, chi2(1) = 0.08, p = 0.77).
Importantly, our mobile infrastructure [ 28] permits capture of engagement with mobile lessons including frequency and duration of participant log-ins, communication with lifestyle coaches, and content downloads/views, which will allow us to characterize engagement and associated it with adherence metrics.
The duration of lag2 in this model is log(2)/ μ + 1/ ν ~ 3 h, which is shorter than the observed arabinose lag2 phase duration, ~5 h.
The duration of encounter was log transformed to achieve normality and homoscedasticity.
The short duration of the practice log does not provide longitudinal data which may address questions that cannot be answered here (such as seasonal variation for topics), and would enhance validity and generalizability of findings.
