52 53 In addition, at six to 12 months, bare metal stents were associated with the highest mean difference in late lumen loss.
With respect to the primary angiographic endpoint (fig 4), use of a drug coated balloon or drug eluting stent were the most effective treatments, while use of a bare metal stent showed the highest mean difference in late lumen loss, followed by rotational atherectomy.
For the two groups combined the creatinine levels were significantly higher (mean difference 9.2 μmol/l, CI: 2.9-15.5, p = 0.007) and the eGFR levels were significantly lower (mean difference 2.1 ml/min/1.73 m, CI: 0.5-3.7, p = 0.011) at the end of the study compared with the start of the study.
The highest mean differences were seen in the unilateral tests.
Furthermore, scoring of the MTP-2 showed the highest mean differences between T0 and T1 (Table 6).
Nutritional variables with the highest mean differences were then entered into a series of multiple linear regression analyses, as explained below.
However, there was no clear evidence of a difference between sober and high alcohol (mean difference −0.21, 95% CI −0.67 to +0.26, P = 0.80) or low alcohol and high alcohol (mean difference +0.30, 95% CI −0.10 to + 0.70, P = 0.20) conditions.
There was no clear evidence of a difference between the sober and high alcohol (mean difference +0.61, 95% CI −0.20 to +1.41, P = 0.19) or low alcohol and high alcohol (mean difference −0.39, 95% CI −1.20 to +0.41, P = 0.67) conditions.
Pakistani children were slightly taller but weighed less and had lower triceps skinfold thickness (mean difference −1.8 mm, 95% CI −2.1 to −1.4 mm) but higher subscapular (mean difference 0.1 mm, 95% CI −0.1 to 0.4 mm) than white British children.
Although the t-test result was not significant, female students in the study did possess a higher mean difference between pre- and post-instruction number of misconceptions (M = +0.60, SD = 3.39) as compared to male (M = +0.35, SD = 3.36).
A comparison of the extractions from the blocks from 1990 revealed an even higher mean difference of 50% between the two buffers.
