Persistence of differences in the use of definitive and preferred therapy, despite these methodologic enhancements, would highlight the need for continuing attention to disparities in oncologic care.
This approach will improve the adherence and persistence with the use of erlotinib in order to derive optimal benefit from the medication.
This knowledge will be useful for health care professionals to develop specific interventions to support patients thus improving the adherence and persistence with the use of erlotinib in order to derive optimal benefit from the medication.
Other investigators using retrospective data analyses have also found relatively robust treatment persistence with the use of biologic DMARDs in the treatment of PsA [ 17, 18, 20].
A poor compliance/persistence in turn, leads to an increase in the use of healthcare resources and an increase in overall expenditure [ 7].
Interestingly, those early weapons differed in their persistence, for example, use of bows and arrows (blue, Fig. 2B) is less persistent than the use of spears or hafted stone axes (blue, Fig. 2A), because it is lost in some derived groups (red, Fig. 2B).
Improved adherence and persistence, in particular, are critical since the use of an effective ocular hypotensive agent over the long term may be expected to increase the likelihood of delaying or stopping glaucomatous damage.
Therefore, in the present study, we used 5 polyclonal antibodies directed against differentially regulated chlamydial proteins during in vitro persistence [ 18, 19] to validate the use of TMA technology on non-persistently, persistently infected and uninfected HEp-2 cell pellets.
Age has previously been reported to affect persistence in use of statins [ 6].
