To achieve this early precise diagnosis of coronary involvement is necessary. The currently used criteria defined by the Research Committee of Kawasaki diseases (RCKD) simply classified coronary artery abnormalities according to patient's age whether more or less than 5 years, most Kawasaki patients ...
For continuous and ordinal data, medians and means were used to determine central position, while standard deviations and quartiles were utilized to determine spread. Ordinal and nominal data like BMI and medical diagnosis are displayed in bar graphs, whereas continuous variables like WC are ...
Multivariate Cox regression analysis was performed to calculate the HRs and 95% CIs for the outcome incidence rates: unadjusted in model 1, adjusted for age and sex in model 2, and adjusted for age, sex, smoking history, regular exercise and presence of HTN, CKD, cardiovascular disease in mo...
While protein-energy wasting (PEW) is a well-known risk factor in chronic kidney disease (CKD), its diagnosis is still controversial. We sought to compare the prevalence of PEW by three different nutritional scoring systems: 7–scale subjective global assessment (SGA), malnutrition-inflammation ...
Many laboratories considered that it was the clinician’s responsibility to request a VUS review based on the ongoing need for a diagnosis or the availability of new clinical information. On the other hand, clinicians considered that laboratories were more aware of advances in algorithms for ...
chemotherapy is expected, 2) For reauthorizations, current Hgb is less than 10 g/dL OR Hgb is greater than or equal to 10 but less than 11 g/dL AND patient has symptoms of anemia. Additional requirements for CKD: 1) For CKD not on dialysis reauthorization, ...
providedthat they were evaluated in steady state. We have had theopportunity to carry out this assessment by studying thevariability of CEA and CA15.3 in 21 disease-free breastcancer patients who did not show evidence of disease for atleast three years of follow-up. In each of these patients...
After four simulated creatinine measurements that accounted for laboratory variability calculated from assay characteristics and 4.4% of biologic variability determined from the clinical cohort and publicly available data, the overall false-positive rate for AM diagnosis was 8.0% (interquartile range =7.9%...
