Thorslund and Strand suggest that available and broadly used tests of visual acuity should be combined with other tests [1].
A review of the literature treating measurable aspects of vision that are relevant to safe driving concluded that available and broadly used tests of visual acuity are insufficient to ensure safe driving and must be combined with other tests [1].
For example, a simple diagnostic biomarker would be a significant advance for the field, as broadly used screening tests such as antinuclear antibody and IgM rheumatoid factor assays have little clinical or diagnostic utility in children29.
These databases have been broadly used as the test bed in many studies, and thus tremendously promoted the research on automated dementia identification.
To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, we compared it to the commonly used univariate GWAS methods and, at default settings, with VErsatile Gene-based Association Study (VEGAS), a broadly used gene-based test for association (http://gump.qimr.edu.au/VEGAS/) (Liu et al., 2010).
Although broadly used in single-analyte tests, it has recently become clear that such assays cannot be multiplexed above a few tens of simultaneous measurements [10], [11] in large part because cross-reactivity of secondary antibodies to surface-immobilized proteins (including primary antibodies) dramatically erodes specificity [1].
We compared its amplification potential with other broadly used primer pairs, and tested amplification success in 76 species from both vertebrates and invertebrates and a total of 8 animal phyla.
A forced swim test is broadly used for screening of potential antidepressant drugs and is widely used to measure antidepressant activity [32], [33].
The BBB test is broadly used in studies of recovery after spinal cord injury in rats [ 7, 12, 13].
Nevertheless, serological tests are broadly used and do have value in the diagnosis of dengue.
