Fairly consistent results were found after removing each dietary factor in turn from the DRRD score calculation; the ORs for the highest versus the lowest score quartile varied between 0.70 (with the exclusion of the cereal fiber component) and 0.85 (of borderline significance, with the exclusion of the dietary GI component or the polyunsaturated:saturated fats component) (Supplementary Information, Supplemental digital content 1, http://links.lww.com/EJCP/A330 ).
Moreover, systemic corticosteroids, when combined with nebulized epinephrine, were of borderline significance in reducing the need for hospitalization in infants with bronchiolitis, and the effect was not affected by positive RSV status (rhinovirus was not examined), a personal or family history of atopy, presentation early in the course of illness, or severe illness. 31 Four studies have not shown an effect in children with atopic characteristics, but they have been underpowered to fully address the atopy issue, or the prednisolone was parent initiated. 15 , 17 , 31 , 33 When looking at longer-term outcomes (ie, ≥2 months), prednisolone made a difference only for those with high rhinovirus loads.
The inverse associations between maternal intake of total dairy products, yogurt, and calcium during pregnancy and the risk of childhood dental caries were of borderline significance: the adjusted ORs for the highest tertile of total dairy products, yogurt, and calcium were 0.51 (95 % CI: 0.23-1.09, P for trend = 0.07), 0.51 (95 % CI: 0.23-1.10, P for trend = 0.07), and 0.50 (95 % CI: 0.23-1.07, P for trend = 0.08), respectively.
Considering presence or not of quoted text as a binary variable, although an association of borderline significance was present in the unadjusted model (OR 1.17, 95% CI 0.99 to 1.38), this was attenuated substantially after adjustment for other covariates (OR 1.09, 95% CI 0.91 to 1.30) with the majority of the attenuation occurring following adjustment for level of face-to-face contact.
