Table 2 Explanatory variables Variables Definitions (Effects coding) INTRAVENOUS =1 if a drug is administered intravenously (1, 0, 0, −1) SUBCUTANEOUS =1 if a drug is administered subcutaneously (0, 1, 0, −1) INTRAMUSCULAR =1 if a drug is administered ntramuscularly (0, 0, 1, −1).
A list of explanatory variables with definitions and defined categories are presented in Table 1.
