The joint described in this paper is part of the assembly procedure, which adjusts the upper to the form of the shoe and proceeds to glue it to the sole.
All estimates presented here are the results of weighted procedures performed in Stata version 12.0 using the svyset commands, which adjust for differential probabilities of selection, the non-independence of individuals selected from sampling clusters and sample stratification.
We identified 52 procedures which (after adjusting for a robust and validated hospital mortality model) were significantly associated with the risk of death in hospital.
Demographics of the full sample and the homogeneity of a subsample (all probands) were analysed by using robust statistical procedures which were adjusted for unequal sample sizes and skewed distributions.
Based on this advantage, Johnson et al. extended the EB methods with a location and scale (L/S) adjustment, which adjusts batches with small sample sizes to each other and avoids special normalization procedures [ 35, 44].
Weighted means, frequencies and logistic regressions were computed using Statistical Analysis System SASSurveyvey Procedures in SAS V.9.2, 18 which adjusted for the characteristics of the complex survey design using jackknife repeated replication methods for variance estimation.
To statistically compare the 3 dose groups in terms of rate of increase in alveolar bone mass with the placebo group, the Dunnett option was used based on the Mixed procedure in the SAS system, in which adjusted p-values were computed for multiple comparisons, and analysis for rates of increase during follow-up was performed using repeated-measures analysis of variance with the Mixed procedure.
Procedures are provided for estimating a correction factor which adjusts for underestimating nest numbers near the transect trail.
The re-weighting procedure used was based on a minimum information loss algorithm, which adjusts an initial weight so as to ensure that the distributional characteristics of the sample matches those of the population according to independent national sources.
The Deyo-CCI is an adaptation of the CCI, which adjusts the index to administrative claims research via mapping to ICD-9-CM diagnoses and procedure codes.
