For this analysis, cases were defined based on the JHMI pathology diagnosis.
For analysis, these frames were defined based on the topics covered (e.g. costs, economic growth, or budgets would relate to an economic frame), type of evidence used (e.g. health outcomes, mortality rates etc., relate to a health frame), and emphasis (e.g. calls to action and participation in events relate to an advocacy frame) etc.
The Condensed Chromatin and Aberrant Nuclei Indices were based on Hoechst stain intensity and nuclear shape parameters, respectively, that were defined based on analysis of positive control gene knockdown studies.
These years were defined based on phylogenetic analysis of norovirus strains,[12], [20] not whether there was an increase in norovirus reports.
Housekeeping transcripts were defined based on previous analysis of 18 human tissues [ 51].
Before analysis of the data, pain intensity categories were defined based on the findings of Collins et al. [ 26].
Specifically, for each subject (N = 6) sixteen single-voxel regions of interests (ROIs) were defined based on the analysis of phase-encoded polar angle data (Fig. 2).
In this analysis, responders and non-responders to treatment were defined based on a general assessment of nerve function and subjective symptoms.
The infecting species in these cases were defined based on phylogenetic analysis of the rrs fragment as L. interrogans (n = 76), L. borgpetersenii (n = 4), and an unidentified species (n = 1, sample L498).
Indications for use and criteria for rejection of items were defined, based on comprehensive data analysis and clinical judgement.
