He p37 was ruined by his old-fashioned strictness and excessive severity — qualities which we can no longer bear.
The 22 patients with and 11 without detectable SMARCAL1 mutations have very similar clinical features (Table 1; Supplementary Tables 1 and 2) and similar disease severity scores, which we calculated as previously described [ 7].
9 It may also be that emergency departments see a different, more unwell population of patients at weekends, since, in one study which used a biochemical measure of severity, adjustment for this variable rendered the weekend effect insignificant. 17 It is possible that a confounding variable associated with severity, for which we were unable to control, underlies the weekend effect.
We assumed infants with high-levelcare needs were referred to the zonal referral hospital; the infants in this study reflected a level of mild-to-moderate illness severity for which we expected that their care generally should be able to be managed at a district hospital level.
Longer follow-up intervals could preferentially select the more severe or longer-lasting cases, biasing the time frame towards larger measured thickness (if MT is related to severity and/or chronicity, which we do not know) in our small study sample.
Left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) is an autosomal-dominant, genetically heterogeneous cardiomyopathy with variable severity, which may co-occur with cardiac hypertrophy.Here, we generated whole exome sequence data from multiple members from 5 families with LVNC.
We call this the error severity, which is based on categories of harm.
Unfortunately, we lacked information of stroke severity, which is an important predictor of stroke outcome.
In our study, spell duration on the CPPD (i.e., the length of time the person has received disability benefits as of the start of our data) proxies for the severity of the disability, which we do not observe in our data.
Premorbid functional status, however, is difficult to establish reliably in patients with stroke, and the strong influence of baseline severity on outcome, for which we did adjust, is known.
