Frequently, line cross experiments are analyzed using joint scaling tests (e.g. [42] [44]).
However, as reported by Skol et al. [ 18], when the between-stage heterogeneity exists and the risk allele has a larger effect in the first stage than that in the second stage, much improved power is observed by using the joint test.
Amino acid positions in the gene clusters that were presumably subjected to positive selection were identified by application of HyPhy selection test using joint maximum likelihood reconstructions of ancestral states under a Muse-Gaut model of codon substitution and Felsenstein 1981 model of nucleotide substitution as implemented in MEGA version 5.
Differences between means of papain-injected and healthy knee joints within the same animal were tested by using paired t tests at each time point for all outcome parameters, except when testing differences for osteophyte formation (GraphPad Software, San Diego, CA, USA).
The ROMs of the ADL in each plane were compared pre- and postoperative shoulder joint angles were compared by using the Wilcoxon test.
Universal testing machine (UTM) is used to extrude the polymer and joint strength of extruded samples are characterised by using numbers of destructive testing such as tensile, compression, peeling, lap shear, and micro hardness test.
Data Extraction: Multiple MEDLINE and text searches were performed by using the terms of the test maneuver, the joint tested, and the term physical examination.
Adhesion properties were evaluated by using a single lap-shear test on metal to metal joints and a pull-out test on rubber to metal joints.
The knee joint response test was also tested by using the Monitored Rehab Systems at the sitting position, subjects asked to control a cursor left by knee flexion and right by knee extension.
Synovial fluid samples from all 3 joints were tested by using PCR.
