We stratified the patients by their orthopaedic POSSUM score at admission and then compared the predicted mortality and morbidity depending on surgical time.
The degree of hookworm morbidity depends on the numbers of parasites in the intestines.
On the other hand, some studies have questioned this paradox, by showing that the magnitude or even the existence of a female excess morbidity depends on the health indicator and stage of the life course analyzed [ 15, 16].
7 8 Although prevention appears effective, 8 reducing falls and associated morbidity depends on early identification of people at high risk and delivery of interventions across traditional service boundaries 9, priorities now reflected in national and international guidelines.
In POH, the degree of morbidity depends on the location and extent of HO, and in some cases, the condition results in severe disability. 1, 93– 95 Growth retardation may be associated with limited movement of extremities caused by joint ankyloses and bone pain, and secondary osteoporosis may ensue.
Complications are divided into early and late morbidities depending on time of occurrence.
In health care organizations, natural boundaries exist between specialist medical teams and units, but increasingly, the care of patients with complex morbidities depends on the flow of knowledge across closely bonded networks.
Given the wide variety of potential influences, it could be expected that there is variability in the patterns of morbidity that depend on the ecological parameters of the area studied.
However, the relative burden of cyanobacterial endotoxin to respiratory morbidity will depend on the capacity of the LPS of any given cyanobacterial species to act as an LPS agonist, or as an LPS antagonist, or be biologically inactive; such properties are as yet largely undetermined.
Severity of clinical manifestations, morbidity, and mortality depend on the time lapsed between sting and hospital admission, as well as the grade of a case on arrival.
To assess whether any association between individual social class and new consultation for a morbidity varied depending on the level of deprivation of a neighbourhood, cross-level interactions between individual-level social class and neighbourhood-level IMD were added to the models when both these variables were statistically significant (P < 0.05).
