It's a simple trade-off between intensity of burden and duration of burden.
This three-item questionnaire measures medication side effect impact over the past week using three domains: frequency, intensity, and burden (the degree that medication interfered with day-to-day functions).
The fourth part comprised questions on headache with a 1-day timeframe ("Did you have headache yesterday?"), and duration, intensity and burden of that headache.
Most participants had side effects that occurred with a frequency of 25% or less and were reported as being in the "none" to minimal/mild range for intensity and burden.
MCA of the variation in intensity of burden associated with out-of-pocket medical expenditure for 723 RTI cases that had arrived alive at the study hospitals is presented in Table 5.
A 3-item questionnaire measuring medication side effect impact over the past week using 3 domains: frequency, intensity, and global burden (degree interfered with day-to-day functions).
Previous research has found that seasons with high intensity or disease burden are often followed by seasons with lower intensity [21].
With the increased international attention to malaria control and elimination, vector control measures including long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (LLINs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS) play a pivot role in suppressing transmission intensity and disease burden [1], [2].
Those parameters indicate the moment when the maximum annual intensity of disease burden usually occurs, and how strong this cyclic variation is.
