As the result, the proportion of problems satisfying less than two constraints are less than the possible and the ones satisfying more than three constraints are more than the possible.
Cross tabulations were done separately for each dimension and for baseline and follow-up to illustrate the proportion reporting problems.
By reviewing the proportion of problems discussed in consultations which are recorded in notes and whether or not they are Read-coded, this would allow determination of whether there is systematic bias in the types of problems recorded and coded.
Bivariate logistic regression was used to compare the proportion reporting problems for the cases and referents separately at baseline and follow-up, and between the cases and referents at baseline and follow-up, for each dimension.
"What is so tragic this time is that the proportion of the problem is 20 times bigger, and there are many more people who are going to suffer because we are slow learners," Professor Siplon said.
