That we did not exclude in our analyses dogs that have traveled suggests that caution should be used when considering the importance of low prevalence rates or prevalence rates calculated from low sample sizes.
This may be of public health importance because of prevalence of both metal exposure and cardiovascular disease.
However, it is difficult to discuss the importance of HIV prevalence differences on the study results as HIV prevalence rates are based on estimates by the clinic staff.
Given the importance of GIST prevalence on orphan or ultra-orphan disease status, our study was designed to estimate the prevalence and absolute number (i.e., prevalence count) of UK patients with unresectable/metastatic GIST at first-, second- and eventually third-line treatment.
Due to the importance of TB prevalence in Iran, this study was designed to investigate the genetic diversity among MDR strains of MTB by MIRU-VNTR typing scheme.
The importance of these prevalence data is underscored by the clinical impact of comorbid anxiety and AUDs.
Moreover, awareness of the importance of OSD prevalence and its adverse effects and consequences in glaucoma patients should undeniably be reflected on the selection of the available treatment options.
However, the results of the current study suggest that the clinical burden of multimorbidity is higher in family practice than would be expected from data collected for the general population, highlighting the importance of having prevalence estimates at the practice level, and the development and implementation of practice-based epidemiological research.
The importance of the prevalence of these symptoms is such that in 2003, the National Institute of Health convened a State-of-the-Science Conference on pain, depression and fatigue symptom management in people with cancer in order to identify directions for future research (Patrick et al, 2003).
This is illustrative of the importance and prevalence of gene loss in evolution, as well as evolution of expression, and the dangers of making deductions from a small number of species.
