Do microalbuminuria and hyperthermia independently predict long-term mortality in acute ischemic stroke patients?
Daily urinary albumin excretion correlates with the body temperature in acute stroke patients, but the predictive power of both these variables is independent of that association.
The concordance of perinatal mortality and SGA rates when based on ethnic-specific standards, and their discordance when based on a single standard, strongly suggests that the observed ethnic differences in fetal growth are physiologic, rather than pathologic, and make a strong case for ethnic-specific standards.
