the ion-pair association constant values, related to the reaction +  were determined by means of the nmr spectroscopy. the values of the thermodynamic functions of the ion pairing process were calculated on the basis of the nmr results. in addition, the association entropy was found to be dependent on the temperature. comparing the experimental data and the fuoss theory it is found that  ion-pa...

  Background: Although upper-extremity disability correlates with psychosocial aspects of illness the association with sleep disturbance in upper extremity disability is less certain. To evaluate whether sleep disturbance is associated with upper-extremity disability among patients with upper extremity illness, accounting for sociodemographic, condition-related, and psychosocial factors.

conclusions the results of this study indicates that the single item burnout measure has potential as a brief, sensitive screening measure of burnout due to its brevity, ease of administration and sound psychometric properties and needs to be validated further in larger studies and with other professional groups. results sib scores were highly and positively correlated with mbi-ee scores (r = 0...

In epidemiological cohort studies, the probability of developing a disease for individuals in a treatment/intervention group is compared with that of a control group. The groups involve varying cluster sizes, and the binary responses within each cluster cannot be assumed independently. Three major measures of association used to report the efficacy of treatments or effectiveness of public healt...

Epidemiology is concerned with groups of subjects belonging to populations, not with each individual subject, and takes into account both the subjects who contract a disease and those who do not. Comparison, thus, is a basic element of this discipline. Measures of frequency, association and impact are the main statistical resources employed in epidemiology to describe the distribution of health...
