Multivariate outliers were screened separately for each planned analysis by conducting a linear regression with participant ID as the independent variable (IV) and all primary outcome dependent variables (DVs) for the planned analysis as the regression DVs.
Randomization schedules were generated in advance in random blocks of 2 or 4, separately for each site (PROC PLAN, SAS 9.2, Cary, NC) and in separate envelopes.
The intensity of the activities was planned separately for each participant and increased progressively according to his/her health status. 1.
Table 3 presents crude and adjusted ORs of SES for CS birth (separately for planned and non-planned CSs) according to parity and different confounders.
In addition, we studied the contribution of demographics and delivery characteristics on the odds ratio (OR) of SES for CS births (separately for planned and non-planned) according to parity (nulliparous and multiparous women), using women with vaginal birth as a reference group.
To test whether there were differences in the prevalence of CS births (separately for planned and non-planned) between SES groups and other characteristics, we performed unconditional logistic regression analysis (backward elimination), using women with vaginal birth as a reference group in both parity groups.
To evaluate significant differences between fragmentation regimes within each species along the shared and unique phenotypic axes (canonical variates derived from 'Fragmentation' and 'Fragmentation × Species' terms in our mancova, respectively), we conducted planned contrasts separately for each axis, using population as the unit of replication.
In the experiment, we estimated planned movement time, separately for each movement, of a condition by computing the mean of actual movement time across trials in that condition.
We calculated sensitivity and specificity separately for each study year by using the 2.6 emergency planning threshold (Table 3).
Historically, health and family planning programmes had separate budgets and the drawing and disbursement of funds were handled separately for each track.
Although product design, process and production planning related decisions are interdependent, they are conventionally made by different divisions, separately for each product, resulting in excess costs.
