with regression slope confidence intervals all including the null value of 0. The proportion of between-study variance explained by LDL-C ranged from 0% to 14%, indicating very little, if any, association between the magnitude of LDL-C reduction and size of the treatment effect (eTable 4 in...
As we explained before, this problem is difficult because the expected return also depends on the unknown data distribution. To simplify the proposed model, several transformations can be applied to it as shown in Fig. 1. First, to linearize the inner problem with respect to data distribution,...
Statins reduce cardiovascular events to a greater extent than can be explained by their effect on lipids. Several studies have attempted to elucidate mecha... EM Balk,J Lau,LC Goudas,... - 《Annals of Internal Medicine》 被引量: 459发表: 2003年 Diabetes, lipids and metabolism:Improved but...
These aspects could be explained by considering that, although some patients in the NRM group were candidates for mechanical ventilation, either the presence of contraindications or the refusal to allow the procedure led to NRM being continued. The limitations of this study are its retrospective ...
Compared with the equation based on W/H, this equation resulted in significantly lower absolute residuals and higher explained variances (Table 2, upper part). In the women, weight, height, waist circumference, hip circumference, and age all remained significant after backward elimination, and the...
7 of 10 carriers had increased levels of SMN-fl transcripts after treatment, whereas only in one-third of the patients a molecular effect was shown.14 The discrepancy between these observations may be explained by spontaneous fluctuations in SMN1-fl transcript levels, as the assay used by these...
paxlovid; remdesivir; molnupiravir; COVID-19 antiviral medication; relative risk reduction; absolute risk reduction; number needed to treat1. Introduction The U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) issued treatment guidelines for COVID-19 antiviral medications approved or authorized for emergency ...
of the interpretation of risk reduction, presented therapy effects were questioned more critically, and the influence of relative effects was recognized. Nevertheless, there were comprehension problems in some of the participants, especially with calculations in connection with low mathematical skills. The...
