A trial that is stopped prematurely with an effect that is significant (e.g., P < 5%) may reach this significance level because the estimated difference in effect between the compared trial interventions is larger than anticipated or because the estimated variance is lower than anticipated — or both (see Section 2 about sample size estimation) [ 27, 29, 33].
UBS's bankers in London and abroad could not be more depressed, according to traders, who are braced for zero bonuses because the estimated $2bn losses could wipe out profits, allowing the bank to claw back much of their remuneration.
Virginia Electric and Power Company, for example, will mothball a nuclear power plant, despite a $540 million initial investment, because the estimated final price tag has risen from $1.2 billion to $5.1 billion.
Because the estimated and actual breakage rates tend to converge at small drop sizes, the inverse algorithm generates accurate predictions of the drop size distribution at sufficiently long batch times when small drops dominate.
However, such differences are not serious, because the estimated source depth is deep enough.
Because the estimated bandwidth was so low in the testbed, a worse performance was concluded for Westwood.
Based on these criteria, we considered that sacrificing the RHV was unsafe because the estimated non-congested FLR volume in our patient was 26.3% of TLV.
Because the estimated equations are no log-log forms, this implies that a 1%% increase in income improves the environmental efficiency by 0.00221 (PM10) to 0.00389 (CO2).
The regression coefficients estimated at low frequencies (< ∼1 day−1) may not be reliable because the estimated lags have large errors.
Because the estimated coseismic static strain change is on the order of 10 7 10 6, the static strain change due to postseismic deformation is on the order of 10 8.
