Fall status was established by asking the participants at each interview the following question: "During the last 12 months, how many times did you fall and land on the floor or ground?" Fall status was categorized as having no falls, having one fall, or having two or more falls.
In this respect public patients seek ways to maintain their trust, possibly because they have no fall-back position (i.e. in the free, allopathic medical system).
But they said the Marine Corps has no fall-back plan for replacing its Vietnam-era transport helicopters, the CH-46 Sea Knight and the CH-53D Sea Stallion.
Another participant remembered falling some time in the last year but could not be more precise, and two further participants were reported to have had no falls in the past year but whether they had fallen before this period was unknown.
In mixed model analyses, having two or more falls was associated with greater decline in MMSE score (estimate =−0.81, standard error =0.19, P<0.0001) compared to having no fall, after adjusting for age, sex, marital status, and education.
A random 5% subsample were verified against GP records and 69.2% of those reporting falling more than once per year had no falls recorded on the computerised GP records, suggesting that these electronic records underestimate the true prevalence of falls.
One in two fallers had difficulties with ADL before the clinical fracture, compared with one in four of the patients who had no falls during the follow-up (p = 0.003).
The child may have no difficulty falling asleep and show no obvious signs of insomnia.
Some people have no trouble falling asleep, but some take hours.
Binary logistic regression (i.e., had falls versus no falls) was performed to assess the association between baseline FI and risk of falls if the proportional odds assumption for ordinal logistic regression (i.e., no falls, one fall, more than one fall) was not met, taking women with no falls as the reference category.
