Using the simplified MDRD equation, gender and age are taken into consideration when calculating eGFR so no further adjustments were required.
Table 5 presents selected OLS estimates of wage equations by gender and type of wage measure (the complete set of wage effects is given in Table B.15 in the Online Appendix).
I estimate separate equations for gender because actual smoking rates and smoking behavior among males and females are quite different, as noted by recent studies, such as Bauer et al. [18], Stehr [19], and Lundborg and Andersson [20].
In lieu of predictive equations, this gender difference in CET should be taken into consideration and used to temper the interpretation of CET.
According to 3 recently published reference value equations using gender, age, and height as predictors, respective mean DLNO %pred and DLCO %pred for the patient group were: 71 ± 19 and 82 ± 17 %pred [ 17]; 60 ± 17 and 75 ± 16 %pred [ 18]; 63 ± 18 and 86 ± 19 %pred [ 19].
In specification 4, sample characteristics enter the equation: participant gender (baseline: pooled estimation for men and women) and treatment in the 2000s (omitted: 1980s or 1990s).
Traditional sexism, though -- to call it by its common name -- typically takes the equation between gender and plumbing for granted: assertions like "if it has a penis it's a boy," that is, are simply assumed.
Framingham risk equations are gender-specific and were thus evaluated separately for men and women.
The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was estimated with the abbreviated Modification of the Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) equation, including gender, race, age and serum creatinine parameters.
† N.S.: Not significant at the 0.05 level (two-tailed) * N.S.: Not significant at the 0.05 level (two-tailed) Overall model: Chi-square = 10.21, p = 0.037 Variables not in the equation: age, gender, and Karnofsky performance status.
