DOI: 10.1002/mds.28920
Abstract: with those below 50 years in the normal population, age is the most important covariate of NfL variability. Consequently, we hypothesize that age-adjusted NfL percentiles might reveal more consistent results among cohort studies compared with… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/sim.8948
Abstract: Age-adjusted rates are frequently used by epidemiologists to compare disease incidence and mortality across populations. In small geographic regions, age-adjusted rates computed directly from the data are subject to considerable variability and are generally unreliable.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jpedsurg.2017.10.023
Abstract: PURPOSE In adults, shock index (SI; heart rate/systolic blood pressure) >0.9 predicts injury severity and trauma outcomes. However, age-adjusted shock index (SIPA) out-performs SI in blunt trauma patients 4-16years old. We sought to confirm these… read more here.
