This finding was verified in our analysis of the consultation data, which revealed that, almost invariably, patient-initiated questions followed when doctors invoked scan or X-ray results in the consultation process (Murtagh et al, 2013).
Practice nurses who assess the need and urgency of care are almost invariably patients' first contacts, either on the telephone or face to face.
For a long time, experts had denied that there was an underlying organic cause of ED, and almost invariably, patients suffering from ED were referred for counselling to address psychological issues.
Because QoL is subjective [ 15], its assessment almost invariably requires patient ratings for measurement, and the outcome measures of interest are certain to contain measurement error.
For example, male doctors invariably interrupt patients when they speak, especially female patients, but patients rarely interrupt doctors in return.
Such problems invariably reduce patients' quality of life (QoL).
The experiments invariably require patients to engage in feared situations or activities.
36 368 370 Almost invariably in patients with involvement of left-sided valves, patency of the foramen ovale is involved.
During this period almost invariably these patients need inotropic/vasoactive support and strict control of left ventricular preload.
Moreover, changes in GIP secretion could contribute to the loss of incretin effect that invariably characterizes patients with type 2 diabetes (9).
Thus, deterioration in GIP effect, rather than GIP secretion, seems to be the determining factor behind the loss of incretin effect that invariably characterizes patients with type 2 diabetes.
