Measuring the effect on cause-specific survival may produce different results.
Univariate survival analysis revealed p16, HPV, cohort, alcohol and smoking as having a significant effect on cause-specific survival (Table 2).
A post-hoc evaluation of candesartan's effect on cause-specific mortality in the CHARM-Overall program was performed (Solomon et al 2004).
Generally, the temperature effects on cause-specific mortality were similar at lags 0 13 and lags 0 21, which suggests the temperature effect on cause-specific mortality was stable after the lag of 13 days.
To examine the cold effect on cause-specific and age-specific mortality, we evaluated the relative risk of cause-specific and age-specific mortality associated with cold temperature (19.35°C, 1st percentile of temperature) relative to the 25th percentile of temperature (24.7°C).
To examine the hot effect on cause-specific and age-specific mortality, we evaluated the relative risk of cause-specific and age-specific mortality associated with high temperature (31.7°C, 99th percentile of temperature) relative to the 75th percentile of temperature (28°C).
We previously discussed the role of ceramide and its effect on causing kidney disease.
This may reflect the fact that age misreporting has a more pronounced effect on causes of death that rise rapidly with age, all else being equal.
This occurs because the effect of a covariate on the cumulative incidence of a particular cause is mediated via its direct effect on the cause specific hazard of that cause and via its indirect effect on the cause specific hazards for other cause [ 43].
22 23 Studies of maternal multiple micronutrient supplementation have also not reported effects on cause-specific infant mortality.
