Clinical outcomes measures can include morbidity and mortality, event rates, and symptom resolution (Ovretveit, 2001). These measures are a direct measure of quality but may be difficult to assess, especially in pharmacy, where their onset could be years following a treatment or intervention (Chassin and Galvin, 1998 Shane and Gouveia, 2000). In these cases, indicators or markers can be used to assess outcomes. These indicators can be condition-specific (e.g., HgAlc) or procedure-specific (e.g., rate of postoperative infection after hip surgery) or address an important issue of patient care. For example, blood pressure may be used as a marker to assess susceptibility to stroke because it is not practical, safe, or ethical to wait and measure the occurrence of stroke.

It is important to know who initiates smoking and the number of people who do so because people tend to become dependent on nicotine quickly and before they are 20 years old. This point takes on practical significance because once nicotine dependence is initiated in adolescence, it tends to persist into the adult years (Chassin, Presson,...

Proper development of immune tolerance is necessary for the maintenance of gut homeostasis and an efficient response against pathogens. Dysregulation of the involved mechanisms can lead to inappropriate intestinal inflammation against microbiota, such as inflammatory bowel disease. The immaturity of the neonatal immune system explains the age-dependent differences of the immune responses against pathogens and the susceptibility to different types of infection (Tourneur and Chassin 2013).
