For patients with baseline Hb < 10 g/dL, about half (48%) of first transfusions occurred at or below the protocol-specified threshold of 8 g/dL.
With genetic algorithm, a global search can be performed and system automation is implemented, because our model does not require the user-specified threshold of minimum support.
All methods showed a genome-wide type 1 error which was very close, but lower than the pre-specified threshold of 5% (Figure 2A).
We only considered significant values in the subsequent analysis that were smaller than a pre-specified threshold of p = 0.01 (two-sided), or p = 0.05 if mentioned.
The nearest cluster for two of the sub-cavities had a homogeneity score below the three specified thresholds; therefore, a prediction was not made.
For each of the remaining two cavities, the nearest cluster had a homogeneity score below the three specified thresholds, thus a prediction was not made.
Random measurement error in the exposure variable may potentially attenuate the association between vitamin D concentrations and cancer mortality at the pre-specified thresholds.
Moreover, a re-analysis of the data, excluding the n = 10 subjects who were scanned on the 3 Tesla scanner, revealed that the pattern of results for group differences in regional GM volume across age, and group differences in age effects remained virtually the same at the pre-specified thresholds (for details, see Appendix 2 in ESM).
These funds would operate on market principles and have to provide periodic accounting to political authorities (especially when their overall rate of return falls below a specified threshold), but would be otherwise autonomous.
The measurements are performed for different concentrations of ammonia at specified levels of relative humidity.
