To be reliable the test must be done rigorously using appropriate reference values corrected for applicable variables.
The group also emphasized that to be reliable the test must be carried out rigorously, using appropriate reference values corrected for applicable variables (2).
Small differences in age, sex, and physical features among study groups (Supplementary Table A) should not have influenced the results since neurophysiologic end points (e.g., attributes of NC) were corrected for applicable variables affecting the frequency and severity of DPNs (34, 36).
Participants with non-missing information for all applicable variables were included in the model.
For the purpose of sound analysis, the herds were further investigated in two different subsets, in which only applicable variables were further tested.
= non applicable; CFU*, SCC* and MILK* = latent variables for log-transformed CFU, log-transformed SCC, and milk yield, respectively; **p < 0.05.
Characteristics between groups were compared using the χ-test and Fisher's exact test, when applicable, for categorical variables, and the t-test for continuous variables.
Baseline characteristics were analysed for difference over treatment group by using student's t test or Mann-Whitney U test where applicable for continuous variables and by chi-square using nominal variables.
To investigate their associations with the clinical, pathological and biological parameters, univariate statistical analyses were performed using the Pearson's chi-square test or the Fisher's exact test, when applicable, for categorical variables, and using the Kruskal-Wallis test or the Student's t test for continuous variables.
The two validations suggest that the proposed method is applicable for predicting variables with uncertainty in process industry.
We attempted to circumvent the static nature of cross-sectional analysis by including income histories that were recoded into categorical variables applicable for logistic regression.
