Once tissues have been examined, the tumour is assigned a grade and a stage.
Practices are assigned a grade of 50%% when there are a defined procedure for them, however they are not fully documented and are only applied to strategic projects of a company.
Each disability was assigned a grade between 0 and 4 (0, none; 1, light; 2, moderate; 3, severe; 4, intolerable).
All but one IVDs (62 out of 63) were assigned a grade II according to the Pfirrmann system, whereas 1 IVD was assigned a grade III.
All included slides were assigned a grade according to the modified Gleason grading system.
Errors were assigned a grade from zero to V with increasing severity.
Each vertebra was assigned a grade based on the Genant semiquantitative scale (0 to 3).
A total of 9/162 IVDs were assigned a grade I according to the Pfirmann system, whereas 153/162 IVDs were assigned a grade II, of which 88 were injected in this study.
Postmortem, 62 out of 63 IVDs were assigned a Thompson score grade II, consistent with early IVD degeneration, whereas 1 IVD, treated with 250 μg rhBMP-7, was assigned a grade IV.
In addition, each statement is assigned a grade for the quality of the supporting evidence: A (high), B (moderate), C (low), or D (very low).
