Objectives: To determine the proportion of a representative population sample of adults in South Australia who have a body mass index (a measure of overall obesity) classified as normal or underweight, but who also have a waist circumference or waist hip ratio (measures of central obesity) that...
About 53% of males and 81% of females were illiterate or not completed primary education. The proportion of currently married males (81%) was higher than that of females (44%). Moreover, 18% and 26% of males and females were found overweight/obesity. High-risk waist circumference was ...
The changes in N gain measured on removal of a proportion of each IAA in turn are used to calculate a dietary AA pattern in which all EAAs are equally limiting. This was first tested with rats (Bender, 1965) and adapted to derive the optimum AA balance in pigs (Wang and Fuller, 1989...
(i.e. RR, IRR, HR) were used exchangeably for meta-analyses. Three studies included in the meta-analyses reported odds ratios (OR); as the proportion of outcome was “rare” (i.e. < 0.5 %) in those studies, we assumed OR was equal to RR (Schmidt and Kohlmann, 2008;Zhang and ...
A raised stress hyperglycaemia ratio (SHR) has been associated with all-cause mortality and may better discriminate than an absolute glucose value. The aim of this meta analysis and systematic review is to synthesise the evidence assessing the relationship between the SHR and all-cause mortality acr...
The correlation between SUA/SCR and cognitive impairment in the population with BMI < 25 and in the male population was not statistically significant (P > 0.05). This lack of significance may be attributed to the relatively small proportion of individuals in these two categories. The ...
The regulatory capital measurement rules According to regulatory requirements, the Group adopted different handling methods based on the nature and proportion of investment while calculating regulatory capital for equity exposures in the banking book. With respect to the subsidiaries of the industrial...
Learn about the employment-to-population ratio in finance, which measures the proportion of a population that is employed, providing insight into economic activity and labor market conditions.
Initially this caused the sex ratio to be strongly biased—toward females in low and males in high temperatures—but the proportion of the minority sex increased over the years until a balanced sex ratio was established. 11.3.2 Measuring the slices of the cake In order to test Fisher's cake...
There are, however, some reported instances, especially for mammalian cells grown in vitro, for which the survival curves in nitrogen and oxygen are not in constant proportion. Some investigators have reported, in particular, a relative reduction of the breadth of the shoulder on the survival ...
