When we compared scores between children with and without sickle cell disease as a whole, the groups differed only in the subscale of worry and there were mild effect sizes noted in this subscale and the communication subscale (Table 2).
This effect size was equivalent to one in three people rating symptoms as mild rather than moderate, agreed as a modest effect size by the trial steering committee of a Medical Research Council funded trial of prescribing strategies for acute cough 11).
As seen in the EPICOR panel, we found LINE-1 hypomethylation also in Dutch cases as compared to controls, although with a milder effect (effect size ± se = −0.132 ± 0.042, 95%% CI −0.21;−0.05, P = 0.001).
Numerous studies, overwhelmingly cross-sectional, support our findings and suggest that depression is associated with suboptimal glycaemic control, although in a systematic review the effect size was mild [ 5].
By contrast, in dementia and predementia stages, such as mild cognitive impairment, effect sizes of cognitive deficits, by definition, exceed 1.5 to 2 SD.
Speaking rate was also an effective measure for both early detection and progress monitoring, but was only associated with mild to moderate effect sizes.
Values denote Cronbach's α coefficient When we compared scores of parents of children with mild sickle cell disease or severe sickle cell disease to parents of children without sickle cell disease, there were significant differences in the communication and worry scales of the module with mild or moderate effect sizes noted in these subscales and in the daily activities subscale.
A significant (P <.05) average effect size indicated a mild sedating effect caused by second-generation antihistamines in comparison with placebo.
In fact, when only trials with modern imputation techniques were included, the effect size decreased from moderate to mild.
The motion of the particle may have an important effect on the shape and position of the flame of volatiles, but it has only a mild effect on the devolatilization process for the particle sizes typical of pulverized coal combustion.
