The model was adjusted for sex, educational level, smoking status, alcohol consumption, BMI categories, hypertension, and dyslipidemia when age categories were analyzed in groups Mg, magnesium; Ca, calcium; Fe, iron; Cu, copper; Zn, zinc; P-v, P for value; P-t, P for trend; P-int, ...
The criteria for age classes in each species are given in Online-only Table1. The sample was the herd within view (such as a group of impalas (Ae. melampus) or hartebeests (Al. buselaphus), which occur in discrete groups), or a subset of it if the herd was very large. One obse...
The apparent optimal ranges of TC for survival were determined by a general inspection of the curvilinear association. Generally, the interval of 40 mg/dL (roughly 1 mmol/L) with the lowest risk (the lowest unweighted geometric mean of HRs in 4 consecutive TC categories in the categorical...
The κ scores were generally in the moderate to substantial agreement categories (0.48-1.00).12 Current age was defined as the age at the time of the examination. Age was categorized as 40 to 59 years or 60 years and older. Race/ethnicity was categorized as non-Hispanic white, non-...
This second tier of the social security system of a given countrydcan be classified into four broad categories, as a combination of two key features: (a) pension systems are either fully funded or unfunded (henceforth referred to as pay-as-you-go or PAYG) and (b) a system can provide ...
Results: Higher frequencies of intake were reported in the United States compared to Brazil for the majority of food categories except for meat, rice and rice dishes; beans and legumes; spreads; and coffee and tea. In either country, young adults (20-39 yrs) had greater reports of meat, ...
The prevalence of anxiety was approximately 4 percentage points lower for each 10-year age group (P <.001); depression prevalence was also lower for older age groups, with smaller gaps observed between some age categories (Figure 1). The remainder of this article presents results by 20-...
The outcome variableLconsisted of two categories: 0 denoting no severe illness and 1 denoting the presence of severe illness. Those selected for analysis were the cases whereL=0. Living in non-congested household To gauge the household’s living conditions, we employed the concept of household ...
These arbitrary categories may not adequately capture the true underlying risk patterns30. An additional advantage of smooth plots is the ability to visually compare risk among any two or more values of the age difference measures, instead of just comparing to one reference group. For example, we...
Considering the small group size of “very unattractive” adolescents, and our interest in the differential effects by broad categories, we collapse the five-point raw physical attractiveness rating into three levels of beauty for the analysis: attractive or very attractive, average looking (omitted ...
