These findings might reflect more aggressive treatment applied in higher-risk patients compared with previous years, as earlier studies described inverse associations between treatment propensity and age.
Furthermore, medication-overuse, or the composite propensity score (age, gender, headache frequency and co-occurring migraine) was not associated with EDS in this population.
Headache diagnosis, medication overuse or the composite propensity score (age, gender, headache frequency and co-occurring migraine) was not associated with EDS in bivariate or multivariable analysis (Table 5).
Including the primary outcome, the following variables were included in the development of the propensity score: age, sex, race, insurance status, trauma center level, ED GCS, mechanism of injury, presence of TBI polytrauma, head AIS, TBI type, and length of stay (LOS).
No obvious correlation between aggregation propensity and age of onset was noted (Fig. 4).
In the propensity score (age, gender and education) matched sample (n = 100) psoriasis remained significantly associated with moderate/severe periodontitis and radiographic bone loss.
This association remained statistically significant when adjusted for propensity score (age, gender and education) and controlling for smoking, scores and regularity of dental visits.
In addition to the functional status at baseline and the treatment, the propensity score, age, and pain remained significant predictors of functional remission (Table 6).
Similarly, the prevalence of moderate to severe periodontitis was significantly higher among psoriasis patients, but this association was significant only in the propensity score (age, gender and education) matched subsample.
In 199 pairs of patients matched according to a propensity score, age, sex, comorbid conditions, severity scores, and non-renal organ failure on admission to the ICU were similar between patients with and those without ESRD (Table 3).
