It is hard to imagine that omitted variables could easily reverse the assessed direction of the network effects.
Given the inability to assess direction of causality, we did not attempt to incorporate ICU length of stay into our statistical models.
While engrafted hCNS-SCns migrated extensively away from the injury epicenter, our tissue collection techniques for this experiment did not include a clear marking of the rostral/caudal ends of the spinal cord, and thus, we were unable to assess direction-specific migration of hCNS-SCns (i.e. number of cells present in the rostral vs. caudal segment of the spinal cord).
In assessing the direction of the housing market, Rae Rosen, the senior regional economist at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, also cited that increase in mortgage rates.
Such a decision is made by assessing the direction of each of the pad forces F1, F2, and F3, in relation to the required steering force.
A series of criteria based on cohesive zone models are proposed for assessing the direction of damage development, which includes the crack propagation in matrix and its deflection behavior at an interface.
Because most included quantitative studies were cross-sectional, the study design has a basic limitation in assessing the direction of 'causality' between the outcome and exposure.
These observations lay the foundation for assessing the direction of evolution i.e., did evolution tend to restore phenotypic traits to the non-stressed (37.0 °C) state, or did it lead to novel phenotypes?
But she moves to weightier matters in assessing the directions in which heavy drug dependence is leading Americans.
Therefore, among the trials with a randomised design, we will also assess the direction of publication conclusions and investigate whether the direction of publication conclusions is associated with discrepancies between protocol and publication.
