Although this proportion is small, even if it were much larger, sensitivity could still be an issue as some evidence has shown that even a tissue culture cytotoxin assay performed directly on stool misses a large proportion of patients with diarrhea and low numbers of cytotoxin-producing C. difficile (19 ).
Changes in wind speed and specific humidity are likely critical in explaining the much larger sensitivities in latent heat flux over the WSST regions than expected from the Clausius Clapeyron equation.
After threshold relaxation, there was a small decrease in specificity, but a much larger increase in sensitivity.
Disagreement between predictors, indicating multiple possible binding sites and/or a weak signal, results in a much larger number of predictions, increasing sensitivity for an interface that is otherwise elusive to interface prediction.
In this pathway, response kinetics and amplitude appeared to be the parameters most sensitive to changes in RGS concentration, whereas sensitivity required a much larger reduction in RGS concentration to produce an impact.
Here we propose a novel method to build a relatively low-cost pixel consisting on a SiPM attached to a PMMA disk doped with a wavelength-shifting material, which collects light over a much larger area than standard SiPMs with improved sensitivity to near-UV light and background rejection.
A new platinum-porphyrin based phosphorescent oxygen sensor, PtP-C343 [ 8] has been developed with a much larger two-photon cross-section, tuned oxygen sensitivity and greater molecular dispersion in biological environments.
Our findings are novel in that they extend the range of potential factors examined simultaneously in relation to maternal insulin sensitivity and include a much larger number of subjects than in most previous reports.
When we considered a cut-off of ≥3 ml/min/1.73 m in sensitivity analyses, we found a much larger proportion defined as having RP, weaker associations with traditional renal risk factors, and less predictive ability with respect to future development of CKD.
In the short term, proteomic measurements using targeted approaches are effective for high sensitivity and high throughput analysis of a limited set of biomarker candidates, whereas unbiased broad measurements are effective for the detection of a much larger universe of biomarker candidates but with less sensitivity [ 27].
To achieve high sensitivity and high mass resolution, beam transport theory indicated that a much larger magnet than in any commercially available mass spectrometer would be required.
