D+R+ patients had an intermediate risk for viremia according to the Cox proportional hazards model (adjusted hazard ratio 1.30 [95% CI 1.0 1.68]; Table 2) though this increase was of borderline significance (p = 0.05) compared to the reference D−R+ group.
Post-mastectomy radiation therapy significantly increased OS in patients assigned to the intermediate cLNR (hazard ratio, 0.39; 95% confidence interval, 0.17 0.89; P=0.0248), whereas patients in the low cLNR group derived no additional survival benefit from PMRT.
Finally, Gilbreath et al. [ 28] studied births in 197 Native Alaskan villages containing open dumpsites with hazardous waste, scoring the exposure into high, intermediate and low hazard level on the basis of maternal residence.
Calpain-9 expression remained significant for overall disease-specific survival in those patients with an intermediate NPI score (hazard ratio (HR) = 0.54, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) = 0.36-0.82, P = 0.003).
Finally, we used a recursive partition and amalgamation algorithm to identify patients at intermediate and high mortality risk (hazard ratio 7.0 and 24.4, respectively, as compared with those at low risk).
In order to analyse whether and how the intermediate event changes the hazard functions, the ratio λ23 t, d)/ λ13 t) for approach J and S are compared graphically.
In the validation cohort, the 5-year HCC incidence was 1.81%, 12.92%, and 29.95% in low-, intermediand-, and high-risk groups, with hazard ratios 4.49 in intermediate- and 16.14 in high-risk group respectively.
ROMs-induced damages have been suggested to cause abrupt xenobiotic metabolism as well as the formation of more hazards intermediates, which could ultimately lead hyper-mutability, genomic instability, adverse effects on number of proteins related to cell cycle checkpoints and neuronal cell death [21].
Authors of selected studies were contacted for further information if necessary, such as the hazard ratios for intermediate term data.
Filling and emptying normal FIBC (flexible intermediate bulk containers) in hazardous areas represents a high electrostatic ignition hazard.
