Beatty and Finsen undertake a detailed examination of the many different propensity interpretations, which they label the "multiple propensities problem," demonstrating that "the greater ability to leave offspring" is itself impossible to define in a non-arbitrary way.
To adjust for differences in patients' and procedural characteristics before and after ePRISM implementation, as well as between study and control sites, we calculated multiple group propensity scores.
Compared to the standard multiple imputation using propensity score method, we added cluster as one of the covariates to obtain the propensity score for each observation.
Our experiments demonstrate the weaknesses of NIDPSs, such as inability to process multiple packets and propensity to drop packets in heavy traffic and high-speed networks without analysing them.
1322 patients treated with ACE-Is or ARBs and 1322 nonusers were well matched on multiple variables using propensity scoring.
Bonferroni correction was used for multiple comparisons of propensity score-matched analyses and P<0.05/3 was considered significant.
There was no difference in estimates between males and females when multiple imputation and propensity score were used (P>0.05, data not shown in tables).
Potential approaches for handling missing data include use of complete data only, standard imputation, multiple imputation, and/or propensity score adjustment (Baker et al. 2006).
Whereas SDHB patients are prone to extra-adrenal pheochromocytomas, malignant disease and extra-paraganglial neoplasia, SDHD mutations have a greater propensity for multiple, benign head and neck paragangliomas.
Patients with SDHB mutations are prone to extra-adrenal pheochromocytomas, malignant disease and extra-paraganglial neoplasia, whereas SDHD mutations have a greater propensity for multiple, benign head and neck paragangliomas.
