Maybe you can do everything with [them], but the result is quite similar – a kind of standardised music.
Patients with an education level ≤8, age >58 years and FVC >86.4 represented the class (class 2) with a quite lower standardised mean EI (ie, −1.45±1.17, N=20 patients).
Although observing similar power when comparing biomarker selected groups and the aMCI group as a whole is a direct result of using the same standardised difference, column J in Table 1 shows that the absolute difference is also quite similar between the biomarker selected groups and the aMCI group, and is actually larger for the aMCI group.
The average annual age-standardised morbidity rates for fracture with a fall coded as an external cause also were quite similar for the two states, at 146.0 per 100,000 for NSW and 148.3 per 100,000 for QLD from 1997-2005.
These difficulties in responding can be avoided by asking the question instead as a survey-style question with a list of standardised options (quite which options are used will in part be driven by individual organisations).
The standardised estimates were also quite different, as the large increases in birth weight and length associated with highways were no longer present.
Standardised incidence ratios of a similar order of magnitude (although not quite statistically significant) have been reported previously from a Swedish study (SIR: 1.03; 95% CI: 1.00 1.06) and for a non-metal-on-metal hip replacement cohort from Finland (SIR: 1.04; 95% CI: 0.99 1.09) (Nyrén et al, 1995; Mäkelä et al, 2012).
"It made me take it (lab) more seriously which was quite nerve racking" (student 9) "I disliked having a standardised patient which seemed to put considerable more stress and pressure on me" (student 29) "I found it added to my nerves because I know that they were older and this made me nervous.
It overcomes the obstacles of multiple written translations, which are quite challenging in some African countries due to the lack of standardised written languages and low literacy.
Despite standardised antiseptic precautions, bacterial colonisation rates of catheters and catheter insertion sites are quite high (up to 60%) [ 2, 3].
