Some of these we can predict and some we cannot; some will be evaluated as positive and some will be evaluated as negative in human value systems.
The reduced size of the system and automatic detection and classification integrated in the MUT software should aid a seamless integration in other clinical settings; this may soon be evaluated as an additional prototype will become available.
40 47 Other clinical, mood and quality of life variables, plus cost-effectiveness, process, acceptability and feasibility will be evaluated as described in table 2. 48–59 The qualitative evaluation of the tutor experiences, will be by focus group and/or one-to-one interviews with tutors after their final RAFT course.
The psychometric properties of some of the outcome measures that exist for chronic neck pain will be evaluated as there has been limited evaluation of the test properties of these measures.

The fever duration period will be evaluated as time-to-event data and the median duration of the fever and its 95% CI will be estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method.
Furthermore, differences at each trial visit will be estimated along with the 95% confidence limits to assess excursions, and data will be evaluated as total responses during the study period using AUC (calculated by the trapezoidal rule) for the estimated and dose-corrected plasma liraglutide (secondary endpoints).
