However, the more revealing component of the simulations was an illustration that despite the strong, positive relationship between harvested areas and fire initiation, the area affected over the long-term by a reduced disturbance interval was relatively small.
This study found that the impact of slice interval was relatively small, although there were differences in the 3 measurements across the slice intervals.
Although gender differences in the median primary care interval were relatively small (6 vs 4 days for bladder cancer and 16 vs 10 days for renal cancer), substantial differences existed in the tails of the distribution.
In contrast to the size of variation by cancer in the median length of both the patient and the primary care intervals (i.e., 34.5 vs 2 days, and 20.5 vs 0 days, respectively), variation by cancer with respect to the referral interval was relatively small, with maximum and minimum median values of 14 days for bladder or thyroid cancer and 5 days for leukaemia (data not shown).
For intervals larger than 12 years, the correlations started to decrease, but the number of individuals for whom data was available on these large time intervals was relatively small.> The tetrachoric cross-twin correlations are shown in Table 4.
This difference disappeared with increasing interval size, something that can again be explained by the fact that changes in observed recombination frequency in larger intervals are relatively small and therefore harder to detect.
The sample size is relatively small, but confidence intervals are narrow (since the proportions appear robust) and concordance is very good to optimal, thereby reinforcing our main finding.
Since this sample is relatively small, the 95% confidence intervals are wide and, thus, attention must be paid to this issue.
Second, our sample size is relatively small, particularly for DZ twins, and so confidence intervals around estimates were large, and so only large effects would be detected.
