It is unknown whether a CRP-incorporated definition of MetS (CRPMetS) might be useful in identifying a population at risk for mortality.
We evaluate associations of metabolic syndrome (MetS), C-reactive protein (CRP), and a CRP-incorporated definition of MetS (CRPMetS) with risk of all-cause mortality in a biracial population.
It was developed in an effort to standardize hip fracture healing assessment and incorporated several definitions of fracture healing found in the literature, including cortical and trabecular bridging and fracture line disappearance.
Minor grammatical annotations were frequently suggested, recorded, and incorporated into the definition.
We included seven studies [ 39, 40, 43, 44, 55, 64, 65] that offered definitions for violations because the definition incorporated elements common to the definition of a workaround or the described behaviours aligned with the definition of a workaround.
In two trials, the pneumonia definition incorporated but did not require invasive bronchoscopic techniques [ 24, 28]; in a third trial, a positive bronchoalveolar lavage was required for the diagnosis [ 31].
Their definitions incorporated both physical and psychological elements, but felt only the physical was their area of expertise.
The demonstration of an intense PCV2-replication was therefore incorporated in the case definition of PMWS in order to differentiate the disease from other chronic disorders leading to the manifestation of similar clinical symptoms (Segalés and Domingo, 2002) [ 10].
Among the definitions that incorporated both severity and extent of clinical periodontal disease, the strongest correlations were observed when severity thresholds in the 2 - 4 mm range were considered (Table 4).
These requirements for "group selection" make perfect sense given that Williams' prime target was Vero Wynne-Edwards, who promoted a view of group selection that incorporated this same two-pronged definition of a unit of selection (see Borrello 2010 for a philosophically-oriented history of Wynne-Edwards and his views on group selection).
