The study population consisted of 2949 adults aged 59–92 years (mean 72.6, SD 5.7) derived from three Finnish cohorts. Participants’ self-reported usual sleep duration was categorized into short (< 7 h, 19%), mid-range (7– < 9 h, 64%), and long (≥ 9 h, 17%). Self...

The mean (SD) BMI in the overall population sample was 29.0 (6.2), with 360 individuals [1.0%] in the underweight category, 9937 individuals [26.6%] in the normal weight range, 13 601 individuals (36.4%) in the overweight category, 7783 individuals (20.9%) in the mildly obese cate...
Regression analysis of category deviations, narrowed to the pediatric group, showed that the dose of sirolimus was the only factor significantly associated with all three variables with ORs more than 2 or less than 0.5 (Table 2). Table 2 Results of regression analysis Full size table Transient ...
Pooled data were analysed using a Bayesian hierarchical meta-regression model. Our primary outcome was the individual and combined prevalence of underweight (adults; age ≥20 years) or thinness (school-aged children and adolescents; age 5–19 years) and obesity. On the basis of previous work,1...
Multivariable analyses using linear regression were performed to assess the independent effect of the randomization group on BP and to assess predictors of BP response to uRDN (eAppendix in Supplement 1 and Supplement 2). Continuous variables are expressed as mean (SD), unless otherwise specified...
Data values provided as standard error of the mean (SEM) were converted into SDs as per the formula SD = SEM*sqrt(n). For endpoint calculation and effect size, given the heterogeneity of the studies in their clinical definition, the following transformations were also needed for direction and...
Normally distributed continuous variables are presented using mean (SD), non-normally distributed continuous variables using median (IQR), and categorical variables using frequencies (percentage). A multilevel meta-regression approach was applied [37, 45]. The main outcome, percentage of fruit and ...
The mean SBP value was 127.1 mmHg (SD = 21.0), the mean HDL-C value was 51.6 mg/dL (SD = 16.4), total cholesterol was 217.8 mg/dL (SD = 43.0). For binary predictors, 4.6% individuals had a history of diabetes, 26.0% individuals were current smokers, 31.6% individuals...
Results Among 18 824 participants studied, 10 302 were women (54.7%); mean (SD) age was 57.6 (8.2) years. A total of 5868 participants (31.2%) were inactive, 3849 (20.4%) had less than guideline-recommended LTPA, 3372 (17.9%) had guideline-recommended LTPA, and 5735 (30.5%) had...
