Thus, the LPA-attributable stroke mortality rate in a given year, location, sex and age was a result of the multiplication of the number of deaths from stroke and the population attributable fraction (PAF) for stroke-LPA pair; where the PAF identifies what percentage of stroke mortality could...
232 control individuals, and evaluated the model using 1,470 cases of prevalent AIS and 40,459 control individuals from Biobank Japan (BBJ). A base model including age, sex and the top 5 PCs showed an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.634. The iPGS model was constructed by integrating ...
At all ages the ascending aorta had a greater cross sectional area than the descending aorta, and both areas increased significantly with age. The increase was proportionately greater in the descending than in the ascending aorta and the percentage changes were similar in males and females, the ...
We calculated the estimated annual percentage changes (EAPCs) to assess the trends of ASMR and ASDR of the disease burden attributable to high sodium intake between 1990 and 2019. We further calculated the contribution of changes in population growth, population aging, and mortality or DALYs to ...
Quality measures would include the proportion of patients with AFib who are anticoagulated, and the percentage of time patients' INR levels are between 2.0–3.0. Managed care organizations can benefit from recent research on anticoagulation for AFib; they have a responsibility to support future ...
The purpose of this study was to investigate the variation in stroke mortality trends, from 1968 to 1987, between US black populations categorized by the socioeconomic structure of the state economic area. The educational achievement profile of the population (percentage of the state economic area ...
frequency according to a given threshold velocity and an upper-bound cutoff frequency (Eq. 8). The modified spectral arc length is then independent of temporal movement scaling. The mean arrest period ratio is the time portion that movement speed exceeds a given percentage of peak speed (Eq. ...
Conclusions: The incidence of stroke increases dramatically with advancing age irrespective of gender. .Diabetes mellitus emerged as the main risk factor in wake-up stroke. In wake up hemorrhagic stroke, the higher percentage of thalamic bleed was found. Improvement was appreciated more in non wake...
YLDs years lived with disability, ASMR Age-standardized mortality rate, ASYR Age-standardized YLDs rate, EAPC estimated annual percentage change, SDI socio-demographic index Full size image Table 2 Age-standardized YLDs rate (per 100,000 population) of stroke attributable to diet by gender, ...
by the population attributable fraction (PAF) for stroke-SBP pair in a given year, location, sex, and age; where the PAF identifies what percentage of stroke mortality could be avoided in a certain year if the exposure to SBP in the past were increased to the counterfactual level of the ...
