The following operational definition of meta-analysis was adopted: a study in which a computation of an overall treatment effect, based on the estimation of treatment effect in each trial, was performed, and reported with its 95% con- fidence interval or with the corresponding statistical test.
Then we compared treatment effects based on slope estimation.
This study attempted to develop health risk-based metrics to define a heatwave based on the estimation of its effects on mortality and emergency hospital admissions in Brisbane, Australia.
This study investigated the potential to develop local temperature/health metrics based on the estimation of the effects of heatwaves on mortality and emergency hospital admissions, and evaluated whether the effect estimates varied by heatwave characteristics (intensity, duration, and timing in season) and individual characteristics (age and disease category) in Brisbane, Australia.
In this case, if the number of individuals involved was less than the number of markers, WGP approaches based on some sort of genomic relationship matrix are computationally much more efficient than approaches based on the estimation of SNP effects (Ober et al. 2012).
The extent of the separation was substantial based on estimation of standardized effect sizes: medium magnitude for mild versus moderate pain and for moderate versus severe pain, and large magnitude for mild versus severe pain.
The nature of the interaction between the studied drugs was analysed with the help of isobolography according to Chou and Talaly method, which is based on the estimation of cytotoxic median effect (EC50) [ 22– 22].
To compare the parasitic effect on these, nv-SRAMs are investigated based on the estimation of post-layout simulation.
There were no statistically significant effects of prenatal exposure to mercury and 1-HP on child psychomotor development based on linear regression estimation with random effect together for children surveyed in the first and second year of life (P ≤ 0.2).
As with the case of life expectancy, results are presented based on simple pooled estimation, the between estimator, and the within estimator which controls for country-specific fixed effects.
