14 We explored heterogeneity between subgroups that were defined a priori (according to place of enrolment, risk of bias, laboratory confirmation of influenza, influenza vaccination status) whenever I was greater than 60%.
Our review suggests that the method of provider payment has the potential to also be an important determinant of CBI sustainability, through mechanisms such as provider participation, satisfaction and retention in CBI; the quantity and quality of services provided to CBI patients; patient demand for CBI services; and population enrolment, risk pooling and financial sustainability of CBI.
When adjusted for the effect of age, sex and parasite density at enrolment, the risk of treatment failure was slightly higher in the symptomatic children compared to the asymptomatic infants but this was not statistically significant (odds ratio 1.2; 95% CI 0.55, 2.9; p = 0.6).
Numbers were small for these outcomes and confidence intervals wide but with a larger enrolment this risk could reach statistical significance.
Recent trials of remote cardiac rehabilitation suggest that the use of tele-technologies may help increase enrolment, reduce risk factors and improve benefit-cost ratio [ 30, 31].
Anonymised data will be retrieved from the Hospital Authority 'spatient information system to determine the patient recruitment rate, enrolment rate, risk level stratification, attendance at RAMP clinic, compliance with assessment as per protocol, number of investigations and referral rate.
Anonymized data are retrieved from the computerized medical record system (CMS) by the HA statistics team to determine the patient recruitment rate, enrolment rate, risk stratification, attendance at RAMP-HT clinic, compliance with assessment and care per programme protocol, investigations and referral rates.
Information provided to these latter was aggregated data on enrolments, overall risk reduction for programs and client satisfaction as described below.
This will reduce the possibility of biases in enrolment and the risk of false negative results (e.g. when a surface examination of a baby was not complete).
Male sex, not receiving co-trimoxazole prophylaxis, and a lower BMI, haemoglobin, or albumin on enrolment were independent risk factors of death at 14 weeks (table 4).
We observed no statistically significant interactions between the genotypes and smoking status and smoking duration at enrolment associated to risk of colorectal cancer, results not shown.
