Structural diversity within superfamilies can be described quantitatively by clustering domains within them according to structural similarity, and then counting the number of structural clusters in the superfamily at a given cut-off of structural similarity.
In this way researchers may present both a mean difference and a comparison of proportions below a given cut-off with equivalent precision.
At a given cut-off, the higher the number of bands/tags per clone, the lower the percentage of overlap needed to merge two clones [ 7, 21].
However, as shown in Table 2, it is a matter of compromise between the sensitivity and specificity of a given cut-off value to make a choice for the optimal value.
Algorithms for low-pass and high-pass three-pole recursive Butterworth filters of a given cut-off frequency have been developed.
In any set of the questionnaire, a child must be referred for further assessment if his/her scores fall short of a given cut-off point for any developmental domain.
The excess of derived low-frequency variants is E = [100 × (fr – fn)]/ fn where fr is the fraction of variants in the region of interest (with-indel or no-indel fragments) that have a derived allele frequency (DAF) below a given cut-off, and fn is the fraction of variants in the neutral reference with the same DAF cut-off (Mu et al. 2011).
It is also observed that the pump efficiency as well as the gain per unit length increase with increase in level of inversion for a given cut-off wavelength.
The consensus group decided on a 1.75-fold increased risk threshold, giving cut-offs of 5.1, 10.0 and 8.5 mmol/l for fasting, and 1 and 2 h post-challenge glucose respectively, with a diagnosis of gestational diabetes being made if one of these values was met or exceeded.
Here, the patients' D-25-OH and haemoglobin levels were well within the given cut-off for normal values regardless of whether or not they reported using CAM.
At the given cut-off, a total of 271 homologies were detected, with 59 overlapping known exons (~22%) and 68 located within introns of genes (~25%).
