However, the likelihood of imbalance is easily countered via a 4-category minimisation variable: male/positive, male/negative, female/positive, female/negative.
3 Some participants' characteristics are asymmetrically distributed between the study arms despite randomization; and the likelihood of imbalance is higher in trials with a small sample and when randomization procedures are not followed properly.
Randomisation was stratified by the prevalence of hookworm (below and above 20% prevalence, as determined in the baseline survey), and subcounty and size (below and above 840 households), in order to reduce the likelihood of chance imbalances.
Not only does kiwi lessen the likelihood of constipation and other imbalances for the nursing mother, it acts as a source of prenatal vitamins for the baby.[6].
Despite the balance in baseline demographics between the AF and non-AF cohorts, there is a likelihood of bias due to imbalance in nonidentified covariates.
We found that joint decision making reduced likelihood of justifying IPVAW indicating that imbalance of power is associated with higher odds of justifying IPVAW.
Thus, the positive agreement will explore if there is an imbalance between the likelihood of agreeing on positive and negative cases.
Moreover, to facilitate comparisons between health workforce imbalances, a typology of imbalances is proposed that differentiates between profession/specialty imbalances, geographical imbalances, institutional and services imbalances and gender imbalances.
Similarly, the detection of allelic imbalance is performed by comparing the likelihood of a 'balanced' transcription and the expected evidence presentation on heterozygous loci, against the possibility of the tumor/normal variant proportions being independent.
The women would have learned to conform to societal views of power imbalances within relationships, and are prone to increased likelihood of exposure to violence in intimate relationship.
