A priori analysis included adjustment for 'rate of non-respiratory illness' (incidence of presentations for diarrhoea, anaemia, failure to thrive, skin sores, scabies and fungal infection) as a measure of general ill health between studies.
Using such a large and independently collected dataset, largely representative of GP practices in the UK, allowed us to estimate the incidence of presentations in a general practice setting.
When the 0 to 3 year-old population incidence of ED presentations for bronchiolitis increased by 1/100,000, the 0 to 6 year-old population incidence of ED presentations for convulsions increased by 0.01/100,000 (P < 0.01).
During the study period, when the weekly all-age population incidence of ED presentations for ILI increased by 1/100,000, the 0 to 6 year-old population incidence of ED presentations for convulsions increased by 6.7/100,000 (P < 0.0001) and that of ambulance calls for convulsions increased by 3.2/100,000 (P < 0.0001).
Because reporting of outpatient case incidence at study health facilities was imperfect, we calculated both raw and adjusted estimates of incidence for presentation of descriptive statistics by group and season.
5 27 The results of this study indicated that the incidence of IDO presentations to hospital and the availability of psychotropic medication are significantly higher in Northern Ireland than in Ireland.
Because we predicted a relatively low incidence of ILI presentations based on local clinical experience consistent with international evidence [ 23, 24] we wished to keep the total number of false positive results to a minimum.
Furthermore, the incidence of acute presentation and complication rates were similar in both groups, except for conversion due to heavy blood loss which occurred once in group I and not in group IIa (Table 3).
To describe the incidence of breech presentation at 22 34 weeks' gestation, estimate the incidence of cesarean section delivery by cause of prematurity, and assess the factors associated with caesarean delivery in preterm breech births with preterm labor or preterm premature rupture of membranes.
From the bibliographic review performed, neither does it seem that social class influences the incidence of breech presentation or its version during gestation.
ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT00516555 The incidence of breech presentation decreases with increasing gestational age from approximately 16% at 32 weeks to 3-53-5% all pregnancies at term [ 1].
