Within the formative research, a quasi-experimental pre-post evaluation study will be performed to compare the changes in indicators related to health promotion practice in the four PCCs assigned to the aforementioned formative research process (Intervention Group) and those of other four centres, matched in structural and population characteristics (Control group) [ 46].
Then, it is checked if the estimated centre matches one (or several) previously selected candidate centres, and when it does, the accumulator array Γ 2 for the corresponding candidate and radius is incremented (lines 22 to 26).
The SE scans the input image where the SE centre matches the input image pixel; all pixels within SE shape dimensions are sampled and morphologically evaluated in relation to each other to determine the output pixel.
The central target was located in the centre of the screen, with flanking dots positioned 6DVA left and right of centre, matching the eccentricity of targets in the main experiment.
This study was a retrospective multi-centre matched case-control study.
The study is a multi-centre, matched pair cluster randomised trial.
This retrospective multi-centre matched case-control study was performed at Leiden University Medical Centre (LUMC) and the VU Medical Centre of Amsterdam (VUMC) in the Netherlands.
The top cluster centre matched S.solfataricus Alba and corresponded to an alignment of 81 residues with a Cα RMSD of 2.2 Å.
Consecutive outpatients (n = 82, F = 67, mean age 41.6 ± 12.7 years) referred to our third level gastroenterological centre, matching the Rome III criteria for IBS and, if present, for concurrent FD, were recruited.
As part of the background to the development of a large multi-centre matched pair cluster trial of a quality improvement intervention to promote the accurate assessment and evidence based management of perineal trauma [ 13], a national survey of UK midwives was undertaken.
