The phrase "altered mean" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts involving statistics, data analysis, or any situation where a mean value has been modified or adjusted.
Example: "After applying the outlier removal technique, we calculated the altered mean to better represent the data set."
Alternatives: "modified average" or "adjusted mean".
Changes in the joint reaction force orientation significantly altered mean acetabular bone strain values up to 67%.
This interest is motivated by an understanding that increased variability and resulting extreme weather conditions may be more difficult for society to adapt to than altered mean conditions3.
If true it would cause considerable problems: it is one thing for society to adapt to altered mean conditions, but quite another if increases in variability were to cause unpredictable climate extremes.
Whereas neither mean resting left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) nor LVEF at peak exertion was significantly altered, mean LVEF at the pretraining maximum workload was increased from 0.50 to 0.54 (p =.002) after training.
This finding fits well with previous multiple sclerosis studies indicating early pathological changes in the thalamus such as atrophy, altered mean diffusivity, reduced N-acetyl-aspartate concentration and iron accumulation, whereas T2 lesions are more pronounced in the later stages of the multiple sclerosis disease (Minagar et al., 2013).
The aim of the MMSE correlation analysis was to see if the parameters that showed a statistically altered mean value in AD PMBCs (Table 2) (basal OCR, proton leak, dATP, APE1 activity) also showed an association (or trend) with disease progression (lower MMSE score).
"That's what altered means," tweeted author Molly Jong-Fast.
How about answering the Earth's plea to quit procreating not with genetically altered means of mass production, but with viable birth and population control methods?
