Real-time monitoring will likely "widen the net" (and extend the duration) of control to include misdemeanor drug users and other minor offenders who otherwise would be left to informal surveillance or none at all.
We hypothesized that removing accumulated litter with a prescribed burn before applying herbicides would improve herbicide efficacy, extending the duration of control.
The primary endpoint was the duration of control of locoregional disease.
Therapy with LM75/25 demonstrated a modestly greater duration of control, with no difference in hypoglycemia and more weight gain.
However, with very modest insulin titration over the last 2 years of the study and no allowed rescue therapy, both regimens demonstrated a relatively short duration of control.
However, due to improved duration of control of intrahepatic primary tumors and due to improved imaging, bone metastases from HCC are now more frequently noted [ 13, 14].
The best performance was achieved with the length of prediction horizon window set to 5. The longer duration of control horizon makes response to be faster, but the system then becomes susceptible to model uncertainties [ 15].
More frequent A1C measurements and visits may have added clarity about the exact duration of control and helped facilitate continued insulin titration, but over 30 months, this could have been burdensome and affected discontinuation.
Prior to study commencement, the order in which hospitals receive training (thereby the duration of control and intervention periods) was randomised by an independent statistician using a uniform random number generator in STATA.
For partial Pearson correlation analysis (see Fig 1A) between iron and disease duration, we controlled for age and set disease duration of controls to zero.
To address this and other limitations, novel delivery systems that result in longer durations of symptom control were developed [ 4- 6].
