Gestational age is, by far, the most commonly encountered variable in obstetrics that is often mislabeled as a confounder when, in fact, it may be an intermediate.
Although numerous clinical and experimental studies show a strong correlation between increases in tissue PCO2 and poor patient outcome, gastric tonometry or sublingual tonometry have encountered variable clinical acceptance.
In addition, the patchy distribution of Ty1' and Ty102 may reflect the fact that they encounter variable levels of success, possibly depending on the background of the strain.
Correlations of encountered genetic variables with protein expression in cell lines, as well as with clinicopathological features and survival of these patients were also analyzed to assess their potential biological and clinical implications.
Patient-physician encounter variables significant in bivariate analyses were included.
Other encounter variables were neutral regarding physician competence.
None of the other encounter variables were associated with profession trust.
Mean patient characteristics, including the encounter variables, did not differ very much across the two study populations.
Independent variables included patient-physician encounter variables and other significant variables mentioned in the previous section identified from a previous study.
