Final scores were derived from median values reported by the radiologists.
Other published studies used median values reported by Sculpher, 20 and not means, without explanation or justification.
These arithmetic mean values were then similar to the geometric mean and median values reported in Table 3 when each of these subjects was included in the analyses.
It is interesting to note that the values for dPf/10N and dTg/10N fall close to the median values reported for dGh/10N.
The split of traffic between peak and off-peak directions was assumed at 65%and35%5%, respectively, in accordance with median values reported previously [ 20].
If done for the median values reported in the present study (Tables 2– 5), this yields 19 and 23 ppb organic fluorine for 1974 and 1989, respectively.
Macronutrient profiles varied across studies and between treatment and control groups; median values reported for carbohydrate intake were 48% (IQR 44 51%) for the treatment group and 50.5% (IQR 46 57%) for the control group.
Mothers of boys with OCP measurements reported more personal pesticide use (91% vs. 77%, p < 0.001) Median HCB and p, p´-DDE concentrations (Table 2) were 11 and 2.5 times higher, respectively, than the upper 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the median values reported for 12- to 19-year-old U.S. adolescents in the 2003 2004 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.
Our findings for Texas children from birth through 1 year in 2009 are consistent with ranges of median values reported for 110 pooled blood spot samples taken at birth for congenital disease testing in 2,640 New York infants born between 1997 and 2007 (Spliethoff et al. 2008).
The high end of the range of median values reported for unconjugated BPA in human serum corresponds to the highest levels we saw only briefly in rhesus females after the oral administration of 400 μg/kg/day, a dBPA dose 8 times higher than the current U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's "safe" daily intake dose of 50 μg/kg/day (U.S. EPA 1988).
Fig. 1 Wait time experienced by patients, N. When patients were asked what they thought was an appropriate reimbursement for orthopaedic surgeons to receive for an ACLR, the median (IQR) value reported was $1000.001800.0000) (Table 2).
