Odds ratios, with 95% CIs, for CMV and EBV unit changes in IgG OD, and differences in values between samples, examined as continuous variables and adjusted for parity, as well as CMV and EBV seroconversion, were calculated.
Analysis of the PEP 1 2 ratios of all the samples as continuous variables did not yield any statistically significant difference (P = 0.32).
CTC-counts were assessed in 122 serial samples, as continuous or categorical (<5 vs. ≥5 CTCs) variables, at baseline (q0) and after 1 (q1), 4 (q4) and 10 (q10) cycles of docetaxel (3-weekly, 75 mg/m2) in 33 mCRPC patients.
An intra-arterial catheter in the radial artery permitted arterial blood sampling as well as continuous monitoring of blood pressure throughout the experiment.
Transcript data for each sample were used as continuous variables.
For this purpose, additional multivariate logistic models, including the year of sampling as a continuous variable, were implemented using the same set of variables included in the final multivariate model.
Potential secular trends of anti-HEV IgG prevalence in our population were studied in additional multivariate logistic models to assess linear and non-linear associations between anti-HEV IgG and year of sampling (as a continuous variable).
In simulating outbreaks, the outbreak frequency F was sampled as a continuous uniform random variable from one of the following four frequency ranges: low (0 to 5.91 × 10-5), mid (5.91 × 10-5 to 3.55 × 10-4), high (3.55 × 10-4 to 6.50 × 10-4), and very high (6.50 × 10-4 to 0.5).
Blood samples as well as ultrafiltrate samples from patients on continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), were collected in one dosage interval on three consecutive days 24 hours(hrs) from start.
Cholesterol and triglyceride levels were measured on fasting serum samples, and assessed as continuous variables.
