Sentence examples for bias average difference between from inspiring English sources
The mean bias (average difference between catheter readings and CO-oximeter values), precision (standard deviation of the bias) and limits of agreement (bias ± 2 SD of bias) were -0.17, 4.7 and -0.17 ± 9.4 respectively.
Agreement between mGFR and eGFR was assessed using the mean bias (average difference between mGFR and eGFR), standard error of the mean bias, the Pearson correlation coefficient and the concordance correlation coefficient as described previously [ 25– 27].
Creatinine-based equations generally overestimated GFR in patients with cirrhosis and showed a bias (average difference between mGFR and eGFR) of −40 (CG), −12 (MDRD) and −9 (CKD-EPI-Cr) ml/min/1.73 m.
The comparison was carried out using four parameters, namely, the average bias (average differences between predicted and measured FFM), concordance correlation coefficient (measures linear association between predicted and measured FFM, as well as shifts in the predicted compared to the measured FFM values), total error (bias standard deviation), and pure error (the average squared bias).
Pairwise comparison was performed using the regression-based Bland-Altman technique, which models the mean and SD of the blood pressure differences as a function of the averaged measurements obtaining the bias (mean difference between methods) and limits of agreement (LoA) (calculated as the bias × 1.96 SD of the measurement differences) [ 13].
To further evaluate the Modified Liu Index 1 90 as an estimate of the original Liu Index, we conducted a one-sample t-test of the score difference to test for bias (indicated if the average difference between the two measures was not zero) in this estimate and calculated the mean square error (MSE) [ 20].
Nevertheless, species are not independent observations and over-representation by two families may have created a phylogenetic bias in our estimates of the average difference between native and introduced populations.
17 The average difference between the BMI values indicates the overall bias present in the data, while the limits of agreement (mean ± 1.96 standard deviation) indicate the precision of the measurements.
The average difference between number of GP visits by self-report and MBS records increases as the total the number of visits increases, with the higher positive difference suggesting a bias towards under-reporting the true number of visits.
