Thirdly, at intervals of about 2½ years since enrolment, participants are sent follow-up questionnaires that ask, inter alia, about illness since the last questionnaire and which, effectively, ascertain their vital status.
Currently, there is a lack of appropriate tools to estimate survival time for a person with dementia, which arguably hampers clinicians' ability to effectively ascertain disease progression and associated symptomatology in order to guide treatment and care up to and including end-of-life [ 47].
In summary, and in the spirit of the studies of Long et al. [ 13, 35], a filter-wrapper two step feature selection method was used effectively to ascertain SNPs associated with quantitative traits.
We ascertained how effectively unsupervised clustering employing randomly generated sets of genes could segregate tumors into prognostic groups using four well-characterized breast cancer data sets.
Consequently, of the 8279 individuals whose eligibility or non-eligibility could be ascertained, only 58.9% were effectively eligible (55.1% and 63.6% among those aged 53 82 and aged 18 52 at diagnosis, respectively).
Based on known vaccination coverage and the basic reproductive number, it can be ascertained that the transmission of brucellosis can be effectively interrupted (Zinsstag et al. 2005).
Specifically, by linking data from a population-based diabetes registry with those from a drug use registry and a cancer registry, they effectively followed medication use in over 8,000 diabetic individuals and ascertained over 700 incident cancers.
In order to ascertain whether, effectively, axonal contact is the responsible for the increased levels of RXR-γ mRNA observed in myelination-competent SC/DRGN cocultures, isolated SCs were treated with forskolin, both in the presence or absence of a GGF-enriched BPE.
3) The flexural failure modes of FIHPs were confirmed via FEM analysis, and the mechanism by which trabeculae in FIHPs can effectively prevent cracks from emerging and cause cracks to develop along certain paths was ascertained.
