However, the predictive utility attributable to nx is exceedingly small (Table 3, lower section).
As with the disease-specific PANSS by adverse-effect method, utility attributable to long-acting risperidone treatment increased at endpoint but by a smaller degree, 0.0285 units (95% confidence interval: 0.039 0.017).
The term "cost of relocation", for the purposes of this section, shall include the entire amount paid by such utility properly attributable to such relocation after deducting therefrom any increase in the value of the new facility and any salvage value derived from the old facility.
The development of these health states is described further in a direct preference elicitation study designed to identify utility values attributable to each health state.
The QoL (preference) weight was then calculated as the net difference between these two scores, and could be described as the utility loss attributable to stroke.
However, regression analysis demonstrated that utility worsens with increasing disease severity, and therefore, that the estimated reduction in utility was at least partially attributable to RVVC itself.
Last week, the $1.6 billion Franklin Utilities fund rebounded after a brief fall -- attributable to its stake in FirstEnergy, the Ohio utility at the center of investigations into the power failure.
For repeat occurrences of a particular type of fracture, the model used the first-year utility multiplier in the year of the repeat fracture and a specified proportion (25% by default) of the disutility attributable to the subsequent utility multiplier from the previous fracture.
For the measurement of QALYs, each state in the Markov model is assigned a utility score and the total QALYs attributable to treatment depend on the number of patients in each state over the time horizon of the model.
This is likely attributable to the noise around EQ-5D utilities, corroborated by the larger standard deviation around EQ-5D utilities, which may reflect natural variations in health status not related to OAB.
