aAn exploratory multivariate analysis with the use of a Cox proportional hazards model identified eight baseline characteristics that were prognostic indicators for overall survival: ECOG performance status, presence or absence of macroscopic vascular invasion, extent of tumor burden (defined as presence or...
However, none of such covariates was significantly associated with effect size in meta-regression analysis, either univariate or multivariate (Additional Table S4). Fig. 3 Meta-analysis evaluating the risk of mild or moderate adverse events of generic versus brand-name drugs against cardiovascular ...
The Face-Name Associative Memory Exam (FNAME) is a paired associative memory test created to detect memory deficits in individuals with preclinical Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Worse performance on FNAME in cognitively healthy individuals were found related to higher amyloid beta (Aβ) burden measure...
The expression of KiSS-1 protein in HCC and intrahepatic metastasis lesions was significantly lower (P < 0.01) when compared with non-tumor liver tissue and normal liver tissue. Multivariate analysis revealed a significant inverse correlation between KiSS-1 expression and 鈼 1 ...
whereas fetal baseline tachycardia is defined by a FHR greater than 160 bpm for two contraction cycles or longer than 5 minutes. Deviations from this normal baseline range are not necessarily indicative of fetal compromise. For example, a baseline rate of 100–110 bpm, if not associated with ot...
A multivariate Cox regression analysis selected age (hazard ratio (HR) 1.09, 95 % confidence interval (CI) 1.04–1.14, P P = 0.04), and abnormal PTFV1 (HR 2.72, 95 % CI 1.24–5.99, P = 0.01) as independent predictors of the primary end point. In conclusion, abnormal PTFV1 is an...
