We gratefully acknowledge Sean Scott, who tested, refined, optimized, and validated application of the high-copy SOD1G93A mouse model, and who's high standards and tireless mentoring inspire us all.
For estimating morbidity rates, EMRs of individual GP-patient-contacts are grouped into episodes of care (concerning one health problem), as registered directly by the GPs (when available) or by constructing episodes with the validated application EPICON [ 20], grouping contacts with similar ICPC-codes less than two months apart.
For episode-based registration, multiple consultations concerning one health problem were grouped into disease episodes as registered by the GP or as constructed by the validated application EPICON, that groups consultations with similar ICPC-codes occurring less than two months apart [ 27].
This is the aim of the present paper which proposes a coherent approach based on models that guarantee the development of validated applications.
The development of L-PRF is very significant in oral and maxillofacial surgery, with many validated applications in periodontal surgery [ 13, 21] and implant dentistry [ 14– 22].
The sponsor produced a computer-generated randomization schedule with treatment codes in blocks, using a validated SAS-based application.
The results of this paper suggests that the application of a validated CFD raking model coupled to the use of raking efficiency measures is a good starting point for the quantitative assessment of design and operation of thickener rakes.
The systematic application of a validated risk score to septic ICU patients with a suspected MI could enable an early appropriate management, and provide a more reliable basis for adequate discharge and follow-up.
Angles (inclination and anteversion) were measured by 2 independent reviewers with a validated 2-dimensional/3-dimensional matching application using a preoperative computed tomographic scan and a postoperative plain film.There were no outliers for inclination or anteversion for errors within 10° of the preoperative plan.
Importantly, questions were included to allow application of a validated assessment tool for alcohol exposure risk (AUDIT-C) [ 30] and existing FASD diagnostic criteria [ 12, 15, 17].
