We also did not find any relationship between gametocyte density and the risk of 28-day relapse, or timing of gametocyte appearance and time to Pv relapse.
ADAMTS13 is a useful surrogate marker of potential relapse, but the timing of relapse is variable and the use of prophylactic rituximab may be guided by the patient's previous history.
The study examined timing of relapse and overall survival rates.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis growth from >1 culture represented failure or relapse, dependent on the timing of the first positive specimen.
In addition, as noted above, the data do not permit detailed analysis of the compulsory drug detention experience that would enable recommendations for improving therapeutic elements or analysis of the timing of relapse post-treatment.
More research is needed to address the best approach to treatment for quitline callers with MHCs, to determine what information should be assessed to provide the best care to quitline callers with MHCs (e.g., diagnoses, symptoms, and current medications), and to understand relapse profiles, reasons, and timing for this population.
In addition, it would be interesting to examine the timing of relapses relative to a switch, and their durations – the current methodology allows the occurrence of a relapse to be identified, but does not allow assessment of timing.
The distribution of genetic features by time to relapse (Fig. 2c), and the percentage breakdown of timing of relapse within each genetic feature is shown in Fig. 2d.
The timing of her relapse is, however, unmistakable.
Likewise, timing of the relapse phase can also be variable.
