The greatest sex effect observed was with the adjusted hippocampal volume alone and HVa/FDG definitions of N+ where for both (particularly adjusted hippocampal volume alone) the increase in frequency of N+ with age was more pronounced among males than females (Fig. 5).
Nonetheless, this limitation is unlikely to have biased the estimated odds ratios reported in this study, particularly those adjusted for factors such as gestational age and birth weight for gestational age, which are strongly associated with postnatal mortality.
As we hypothesized, associations with HBM were stronger for the osteophyte variables compared with both semi-quantitative and measured JSN, particularly in models adjusted for BMI, and the stronger association we observed between HBM and knee OA defined as KL ≥ 2 (osteophytosis) versus KL ≥ 3 (osteophytosis plus JSN) is likely to be a further reflection of this.
Nevertheless, the main factor determining a story's location on the popularity list is its number of votes, particularly after adjusting for most of the daily variation in activity by using Digg time described in Section 2.4.
It found evidence for an increasing risk of ALL with rising maternal age, while there was no clear pattern for paternal age, particularly after adjusting for potential confounders.
Although not all studies have found such gender differences, particularly after adjusting for important confounding factors such as age [ 9- 13].
Yet, other studies have reported no correlation between BP and ethnicity, particularly after adjusting for height, age and gender [ 15, 18, 26- 29].
However, some outcomes appeared to be related to the type of delivery experienced, particularly when adjusting for sociodemographic variables and the other psychological and physical symptoms present at each time point.
In men, however, this pattern seemed to be absent, with the youngest age group showing a slightly lower ratio than the older groups, particularly after adjusting for body surface and time of day.
23 Particularly, after adjusting for various variables, fish intake was inversely associated with systolic blood pressure (p = 0.026), fasting glucose (p < 0.001), total serum cholesterol (p = 0.012), and triglyceride levels (p = 0.024).
