Sentence examples for patient correlation from inspiring English sources

When data were split to differentiate results obtained in healthy donors versus septic patients or when only one sample per patient was kept in the analysis (to decrease potential bias associated to serial sampling from the same patient), correlation parameters remained very good (Fig. 2a).

‡P values are adjusted for within patient correlation using robust variance estimate.

To account for within patient correlation, we used robust variance covariance matrix estimators for computing standard errors for model coefficients.

If not available from the reports and with no response from authors, we assumed a within- patient correlation of 0.5.

33 With 130 patients, four postbaseline measures at 3, 6, 12 and 24 months for each patient, correlation between two scores from the same participant is assumed to be 50%, and assuming an exchangeable correlation matrix structure, we will have 80% power to determine a minimum absolute difference (increase or decrease) of +/− 0.3 in global scores for each of the factors examined.

In all five patients who underwent heart rate alternations of different magnitudes, the relative size of oscillations in cardiac output and ETCO2 was strongly correlated (mean of within-patient correlation coefficients was 0.83 ± 0.10, P < 0.0001 in all cases, Fig. 5).

Since one patient could have more than one ApEn analysis, generalized estimating equations (GEE) were used to adjust model coefficients and standard errors for within-patient correlation.

The comparisons among groups were adjusted for possible differences in age, refractive error, and gender, and for intra-eye and intra-patient correlation of repeated measurements.

A generalized estimating equation (GEE) approach was used to adjust model coefficients and standard errors for within-patient correlation since a patient could take more than one antidepressant or mood stabilizer.

A sample size of 464 patients will provide 80% power for a two-tailed test (α = 0.05) for a 40% relative reduction in the rate of distal anastomotic occlusion from 12% in the saphenous vein to 7.2% in the radial arteries assuming a 20% within-patient correlation.

To compare ADR incidence between hospital wards, a generalised estimating equation (GEE) [22] model with compound symmetry was used to account for the within-patient correlation.
