"a subsequent comparison" is a correct and usable phrase in written English.
You can use it to refer to a comparison made at a later time or after another comparison has already been made. For example, "After seeing the results of the initial comparison, the researchers made a subsequent comparison which yielded different results."
A subsequent comparison of 1,739 participants diagnosed with prostate cancer and 3,117 matched cancer-free individuals highlighted the supplement hazards.
Reviewing a subsequent comparison of the quality of care in five countries Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Britain and America Elizabeth McGlynn, who led the RAND study, recently wrote in Health Affairs that other countries were doing no better than America.
A subsequent comparison of the two systems, led by Chris Ham, director of the strategy unit at the Department of Health in London, dealt with some of the methodological objections to the original study by looking at acute care for those aged 65 and over.
The computation of form tolerance invariably involves a discretization of the surface (form) and a subsequent comparison of deviations from an evaluated "best" fit.
The forecast service was tested by an independent observer, and the performance of the scheme is evaluated by a subsequent comparison between forecast and actual measurements.
The modeled temperature field allows for the conductive component of the HFD values to be recovered (Cacace et al. 2013), which in turn enables a subsequent comparison to be made with the observed heat flow values.
The identification of differential methylation in the originally described Me-DIP-chip protocol involves detection of enriched regions in the IP fraction relative to the IN fraction within a particular sample, and subsequent comparison between the samples [37], [38].
To reduce computational load, where sequences exhibited 100% identity (whether inter- or intra-specifically) one representative was selected at random to serve as a placeholder through the subsequent comparison and graph partitioning operations.
If there were more than one structure in a bin, subsequent comparisons were made between all the structures in that bin and newly generated structure.
We evaluated HPV detection in DNA from three common types of genital clinical samples; directly comparing genital warts, CIN (cervical intra-epithelial neoplasia) brushings and VIN (vulval intra-epithelial neoplasia) lesions using the MY09/11, GP5+/6+ and PGMY09/11 primer sets in primary PCR and with subsequent comparison with a nested PCR approach (PGMY-GP) [ 25].
Representative examples of isolates possessing a PCR-RFLP genotype distinct from those that we previously identified [13], [22], [23] were used in a subsequent sequence comparison.
