Study Design: Using Washington state birth certificate data linked to hospital discharge records, we compared 3741 vaginal deliveries by both vacuum and forceps, 3741 vacuum deliveries, and 3741 forceps deliveries to 11,223 spontaneous vaginal deliveries.
Using the hospital referral system and electronic records, we compared this with the patients' neurological symptoms at time of scanning.
Using these records, we compared the GPRD incidence of ovarian cancer with rates compiled from the UK cancer registries and investigated the relationship between age and coded investigations for suspected ovarian cancer.
For a reduced dataset of 10 weeks before and 10 weeks after lynx weight was recorded, we compared the predictive ability of models containing either sex-age classes or body mass as the only predictor using the Akaike's information criterion (AIC), where the model with the lowest AIC value indicates the best model among the examined models [30].
For each record, we compared the predicted origin (i.e. local New Zealand origin versus movement within the country versus new arrival from Australia) with that determined by our molecular data.
Due to the differences in data collection system in the interview and medical record, we compared the difficulty experienced by the patient in performing at least 1 of 5 basic care skills (feeding, bathing, grooming, dressing, toileting), transferring, and walking.
"I mean, no one will say on the record 'We compare ourselves relentlessly to Facebook,' because that's a losing position, but of course they do".
From these sources, we identified cases of hospitalised IM up to the age of 30 years in people for whom the ORLS had a maternity record; and we compared perinatal factors in their pregnancy with those in the pregnancy of children who had no hospital record of IM.
Using population-based linked health records, we have compared the surgical treatment and survival of Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal women diagnosed with breast cancer in NSW.
Based on electronic patient records, we retrospectively compared the point-of-care and time-to-treat recommendations of the paediatric telephone triage protocol with the actual recommendations of trained physicians for children with abdominal pain, following a teleconsultation.
To ensure that whole-cell recorded firing patterns were also quantitatively similar to cell-attached recorded firing patterns, we compared the frequency of regular tonic firing in a subset of 33 neurons (P16 P23) that were recorded both in cell-attached (before breaking into the neuron) and in whole-cell 10 mM EGTA.
