The trends were generally consistent with expectations, in particular with increases with higher age and smoking intensity, and with pronounced increases with higher alcohol consumption and BMI.
Previous longitudinal studies on prognostic factors for functional decline in joint pain and/or osteoarthritis (OA) found evidence for various predictors of poor functional outcome, like older age, high pain intensity, longer duration of symptoms, comorbidity, high BMI, anxiety, depression and poor self efficacy [ 23- 26].
According to this study, a high degree of disability associated with low HRV, high pain intensity, older age, poor sleep quality and high psychological distress.
Stratifying their results by age revealed that with increasing age a higher intensity per training session or even several sessions per week are required to achieve the same risk reduction.
Frequent sleep interruption was significantly associated with high pain intensity, male gender, anxiety, and higher age at time of injury.
Because, intestinal helminth infections most common infection among school-age children and tend to occur high intensity in this age group [ 2, 6].
PLR was strongly diminished in untreated Rpe65R91W/R91W mice of 4 months of age, where only high intensity stimuli (more than 150 lux) provoked a partial contraction (Fig 5A, B).
Angiogenesis in invasive breast carcinoma, as evaluated by micro-vessel counts, is associated inversely with patient age, and higher vascular intensity is observed in younger patients [ 32, 33].
have shown that in a population of immunocompetent patients at high risk of PHN (for both older age and higher pain intensity), no subjects who were pain free at 6 months showed a recurrence of pain on subsequent visits [ 44].
Prevalences of parasitaemia for each species were higher and peaked at a younger age in areas with high intensity seasonal or perennial transmission.
