Ultimately, a prospective before-and-after study, or ideally, a randomized controlled trial would be necessary to confirm that a triage model using these variables would effectively reduce the use of critical care resources without compromising patient outcome.

Before using CCA, variables that covaried with other variables (Pearson correlation r > 0.90, P < 0.05, such as BOD) were removed.
Because % susA β reaches an asymptote, time (h) was log transformed for the purpose of calculating the slope before used as a fixed variable as well as a random variable to determine the effect of apoJ addition.
Dichotomous variables were created using these continuous substance use variables.
As before, we use binary variables e uv indicating whether the edge { u, v} is present in the solution graph.
To reduce positive skewness in plot α-diversity after pooling the Alps and the Scandes data (n = 806 plots), we log-transformed plot α-diversity before using it as a dependent variable in the ANCOVA.
Before constructing our models and because of the large heterogeneity found in connectivity, activity and burstiness across ties in social networks, we scale and normalize our variables before using them in a model.
