Using multilevel modelling allows for accurate adjustment for country affiliation when studying effect sizes of proximal determinants because the constant is allowed to vary across countries.
Our study was not formally powered to detect the influence of genetic variation in the vitamin D pathway on serum 25(OH) D concentrations; although we were powered to detect clinically significant genetic effects, it is possible that we lacked statistical power to detect smaller effect sizes of genetic determinants.
The study contributes to a very limited body of literature and expands our understanding of the size and determinants of the costs of occupational cancer.
Our attempt to reduce DUP in the complex U.S. healthcare environment uses a model that (a) incorporates local knowledge and uncertainty of the size and determinants of various sources of delay and (b) the pathways to care that reveal potentially malleable nodes on which to prioritize efforts.
"Environmental Violations, Legal Penalties, and Reputation Costs" by John Lott, Jonathan M. Karpoff et al. This paper examines the sizes and determinants of fines, damage awards, remediation costs, and market value losses imposed on companies that violate environmental laws.
Data from the GSS Cycle 10, The Family, 1995, were used to look at the distribution of family size by socio-demographic characteristics, the association of family size with specific determinants of health, and also factors associated with the intention of having children in the future.
We are challenged to reconcile epidemiologic patterns with morphology in diseased renal tissue, and to consider structural markers, such as nephron number and glomerular size, as determinants of disease susceptibility.
To address this issue, we investigated whether preexisting hyperglycemia and body size are determinants of morbidity and mortality in patients recently admitted to the ICU.
This study examines the informational quality of annual accounting earnings within Greek banking institutions taking into consideration the most significant risks facing by such firms and specifically interest rate risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and solvency risk, alongside with the persistence of earnings and bank size as significant determinants of ERCs.
To study the association between family size and selected determinants of health (presented in Figure 4), "family size" was chosen as the independent variable and modelled with different outcome variables.
