However, AF was not associated to these potential confounders and adjusting for these variables in the model did not materially change the effect sizes (data not shown).
We performed a sensitivity analysis without including fetal smoke exposure during first trimester only, and observed that the effect sizes did not materially change.
The SEC called the proxy materials materially false and misleading.
"By virtue of existing we're materially increasing the size (and safety) of the digital kids market so by any analysis, our value comes from continuing to grow fast".
Models were assessed for age-group by sex interaction, but because inclusion of this interaction term did not materially change the effect size for any of the models, they were excluded from the final models.
Larger total sibship size was not materially related to the prevalence of wheeze, asthma, eczema, or rhinoconjunctivitis.
In the future, we intend to investigate these impacts against larger, longer and more diverse datasets to determine if there is a point at which increasing study duration or sample size no longer materially affects simulation outcomes.
Data on urbanisation (such as population size and density; proportion of households with television; and availability of facilities such as electricity, bank, and health centre) collected from the village heads showed little variation between the villages (data not shown), and adjustment for urbanisation (population size) did not materially alter any of the results.
Excluding prenatal ETS from the model did not materially alter the estimated effect size or p-value of PAH on child RCPM score [β= −1.3, p = 0.03 in the PAH high/low model; β = −0.5, p = 0.03 in the Ln(PAH) model after excluding ETS (n = 214 ], indicating that prenatal ETS exposure is not a potential confounder of this association.
Exclusion of salivary specimens or restriction to mucoid specimens reduced the sample size but did not materially affect results.
