This gender disparity disappeared when the groups were adjusted for height and severity of illness.
Strategies to standardize application of LPV, independent of differences in height and severity of illness, are necessary.
In a multivariate analysis, patient height and severity of illness remained significant predictors of receiving LPV during the first 48 hours of illness.
Strategies to standardize lung protective ventilation delivery, independent of differences in patient factors, such as height and severity of illness, are necessary.
Our finding suggests that intensive care regarding mechanical ventilation in ALI patients may be influenced by patient-related factors such as height and severity of illness.
However, after adjustment for height and severity of illness, there is no difference between men and women in exposure to LPV.
However, after adjustment for height and severity of illness (APACHE II), there was no difference in exposure to LPV between men and women (P = 0.262).
Four lncRNAs (ENST00000440778.1, ENST00000602322.1, ENST00000414894.1, and TCONS_00028768) were differentially expressed between different patients when grouped according to age, height, classification, severity of scoliosis, and Risser grade.
In Figure 2, the OCP lines were ranked by height for severity of phenotype in 50-day old plants and there is a strong correlation between P450 SU1 transcript level and phenotype: Lines with the most severe phenotype had the highest levels of P450 SU1 transcript while those with intermediate and no phenotype had lesser and no transcript, respectively.
The best condition yielded 74% of the theoretical conversion and was attained at the height of severity (CSF of 2.48).
